The Armando Iannucci doc on BBC1 tonight isn't on in Scotland as they have a new series of A Question of Hills with Paul Coia.

You have to admire ITV4 for putting an ad break slap in the middle of the jump cut of Terry Jones going from the rugby field to the trenches.

I caught the last hour of Meaning of Life last week so am now watching the first half. Machine that goes 'ping', Every Sperm is Sacred (thanks Arlene Phillips) and my favourite line in the entire film - 'Putting them on a lower peg sir?'

“Have you said ‘thank you’ even once?”

'Vive Brian, wherever you are'

As an extra cool fact, the lad in the Breton style top next to me in this picture won a BAFTA and an Oscar last year.

Post you from a different era. Uni. Likely drunk.

Preston will do fine #avfc #facup

This sounds like an AI Tom Hanks #TheAmericas

I mean, I love Doves, but it shows how out of the loop you can get. I need a full page ad in Q magazine, not a random look at their Wikipedia page.

Have also just found out a new Doves album came out yesterday.

So I've gone from this to being reminded of my Dad so some John Denver and I'm now watching some archive Jake Thackray on YouTube.

Am loving listening to Stay Alive by Jose Gonzalez which is the tune on the new Amazon ad but hey, sometimes that's how you discover new stuff, even if it is over 10 years old.

Yeah, thanks Feyenoord #footballbetsfallingatthelasthurdle

No idea but I bet she just gave it to herself anyway.

Singing 'Erland Haaland' to the Teletubbies theme tune as he came on #ITV4 #FACup

I went to a recording of this as a guest of TV's Kirsten O'Brien (she's a uni mate of my OH) - no recollection of any other contestant whatsoever but I had a pint with Suggs afterwards who was great.

Bah ha ha ha….!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Who did this? 👇🏼

Oh good, Lee Dixon...#facup

Men Fuck Badly. Women across the world nod sagely.

Leeds v West Brom is on the telly

I really need the police to solve Gene Hackman’s death before a podcast tries to do it

Just put the football on and Ray Houghton's scored a beauty for Fulham to take the lead against Sheffield Wednesday #ITV4

Fine Roberta Flack doc but there should now be an episode of Going For Gold in memoriam of Henry Kelly.

King Charles should personally go on TV and say that the state visit is cancelled. Trump would absolutely explode and it would be the best moment of the year.

Roughly seven songs from last week's #totp again then when we get something new it's Gary Barlow. Could we not have that terrible Monaco song instead?

Were there no new entries at all this week? #totp

The suit exchange should go down in history showing how brilliantly sharp and funny Zelensky is and how he put Vance down (all in his second language). Vance: Why don’t you wear a suit? You never wear a suit. Zelensky: When the war is over I’ll wear one. Maybe one like yours or maybe a better one.

Page 3 girl Jayne Marconi is your host this evening #totp

I genuinely only knew 2 songs on that #totp

'WHY DON'T YOU WEAR A SUIT??'

This song's pretty dreadful but it gets about 300% better when George Michael starts singing #totp

What's this pish? #totp

Geri and George Michaels! #totp

Make that three songs.

Two songs in and I think it's the first time I've heard either of them. I don't remember being in a coma in May 1997. Possibly just constantly drunk. #totp

Beers opened, succulent Chinese meal ordered, #TOTP then Villa in the Cup.
