My Memorable TV Moment was when Jaws premiered on terrestrial TV. Next door's TV conked out so they all came round and huddled up with us

Women use the exclamation mark more than men? That’s news to me. I very rarely venture to the exclamation mark. The full stop is my vibe. Or no punctuation at all #BBCWomansHour

I think the use of exclamation marks is as much about who the reader will be as it is about who the writer is

According to #BBCWomansHour you get these checks if you don’t have a “pre-existing health condition”. So because of my Menieres they never invited me in? Cos obviously with an ordinary 10 minute appt they would find out what ELSE was wrong with me?

Wish Liz Kendall would be challenged about AI job displacement.

Kendall, like every other politician is talking up AI because they only focus on the investment inflow from the AI companies.

Perhaps Blaise' parents gave her that name as they foresaw a career in spying for her....

#BBCWomansHour Surprise surprise, another chicken voiced American ‘expert’ on the programme. Don’t we have any experts in the UK?

Why was someone who was criticising Trump cut off on yesterday's @BBCWomansHour and why did @bbclondon.bsky.social only speak to a MAGA supporter in Windsor?

🔊 LISTEN NOW (from the start)

"The 2022 Femicide Census reveals the depressing regularity of the pattern of killing women by men in the UK"

I can't bear it when 'experts' being interviewed tell us something is "very complicated"

Talk about patronizing.

Some of us are highly intelligent people with a scientific education.
BBC dumbing down as usual

This conversation about a new vegetarian cookbook on #BBCWomansHour sounds like something out of the early 70s. “It isn’t just about salads.” … well, who knew? Good grief!

Listening to #BBCWomansHour re statues of women. I hate ALL public statues of people - M or F. They are hugely divisive, look dated very quickly, get abused, & are mostly ‘celebrating’ the wrong people. Society’s view of who’s “worthy” changes abt every 20? years.

Am I wrong?

A new study from @rcphysicians.bsky.social revealed air pollution is linked to 30,000 deaths a year in the UK and affects every organ in the body.

Rosamund Kissi-Debrah tells #BBCWomansHour the findings validate conclusions made after the death of her daughter, Ella.
