Can’t believe we got away with making Penguin publish this.

Let's learn about the Wonky Wolf of Leeds. Discovered 1840 in Aldborough, North Yorkshire, the mosaic dates to ~300 AD & probably represents a Roman provincial artist's attempt to tell the story of Romulus and Remus being suckled by a she-wolf, the founding myth of Rome.

I'm afraid I don't even know who Rory McIlroy is.

So sad to hear we've lost Jean Marsh. An extraordinary talent. So much to thank her for, not least, of course, the glorious Upstairs Downstairs.

Loving the new #BlackMirror series. The season opener is a solid gold BM classic. Fabulous!

By an amazing coincidence, Puss Catapillar is what we call Michael Fabricant too.

Remembering the extraordinary actor, director and academic who was Duane Jones, born on this day in 1937. Here's my painting of him as Ben, horror cinema's first Black hero in Night of the Living Dead (1968). The original has sold, but prints are available! barnabyedwards.co.uk/shop/art-cul...

Does anyone know where I can find this orchestration of the Comedy Playhouse (Happy Joe) theme? I've never been able to find this specific recording which is a shame because it's marvellous. youtube.com/watch?v=br7t...

I really can’t tell if this is AI. 🤔

The Butterfield Diet, c/o the brilliant Peter Serafinowicz. Every detail of this is as perfect observed as a Victoria Wood sketch. Quiches Lorraine just makes me howl. youtube.com/watch?v=1NjT...

A beautiful morning at #NationalTrust A La Ronde. The shell gallery re-creation is a triumph!

Due to a mix-up at the BBC Graphics Department in 1982... #DoctorWho #Sorry

**CLAXON** It's Kenny Everett night on BBC4 on Saturday. **CLAXON**

So good. 🤡 @brendanvduke.bsky.social

Surely this film is just about the worst idea ever conceived.

I just did the numbers and this assumption looks to be completely right. Let’s pause for a minute and consider how INSANE this is. 🧵

"Doctor doctor, I keep thinking I'm in the wrong joke!" "Who's there?" "What?" "What who?" "What do you mean 'What who"?" "Edward Woodward"

Pillars making a come back

Gorgeous this afternoon walking round Exeter's Higher Cemetery. We never tire of this place, so peaceful.

Remembering Blake's Junction 7. So brilliantly observed, performed and directed. Completely bonkers, absolutely amazing. Tudders coming back to voice Orac too! ❤️ youtube.com/watch?v=9Euk...

Not sure anyone's going to miss WH Smith. For years it's been an example of how to do everything badly. Our local branch is filthy, poorly lit, & crammed full of damaged books & pile high sell cheap tat. And it smells of sick. Maybe the new owners can turn it around. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
