Love to smash a gig and then, as I’m leaving the building, be beckoned over by a man in a Union Jack t-shirt who then stood far too close to me to say “lovely voice but you should stick to that, people don’t like your chat”. I went “why are you telling me this?” and left haha.

Saved a butterfly, possibly, from my sister's cats earlier. Saw them passing it around the patio, and I thought it was a leaf at first. Small Nephew said "LEAVE IT" but I argued that it's a late season pollinator. Wing slightly torn but gave it a chance.

Richard Briers said about as much - though not in the same terms - about the character.

I did a "Are You Being Served" watch last year, and actually, it holds up okay. There were I think two or three times in the entire run I went "Oh.... Oh no...." But surprisingly unproblematic for when it was made.

I'm kind of loving the new Mitchell and Webb, but with every sketch, I find I'm consciously editing and punching it up. Basically, what I'm saying is I'd love to write for it. I'd love that very much.

On the school run, googling the person whose Instagram was printed on the side of the fancy car he'd left parked on the zig-zag lines at the school gates.

I'd assumed drug dealer, by the make of car, but turns out actor and influencer. And, presumably, dad of a tiny child.

On the sad news of the death of Moody Blues bassist John Lodge, a reminder that 'Nights In White Satin' scans perfectly with 'Tights that I've shat in.'

People crowded around the 18" television for the blessed relief of Terry and June.

Last Christmas ITV showed the first Police Academy at lunchtime, which I assume lasted 35 minutes and was a miracle of editing.

I was mercifully unborn then, but 1970s comedy makes the whole decade seem like a ten year prison sentence. Imagine having to laugh at On the Buses, Are You Being Served? and It Ain’t Half Hot Mum.

I always advise people that if they have any fond memories of the film Animal House, they will not survive watching that film again today.

I know it's a privilege to be at this age, in this country, and in this situation, and I don't take it for granted, but I feel more comfortable with myself than I ever have done.
