Not a single second, not a single movement, not a single syllable, without purpose and poignant meaning in it. The writing, the characterisations, the craft, the performances: Art What. an. episode. #EastEnders

Missed my stop watching today's #EastEnders πŸ˜„

This scene in tonight's #Casualty πŸ’”

Gosh, that #EastEnders episode really put me through it this morning; wept all over my phone screen on the train to work. Steve McFadden, though. πŸ’”

So much 80s flavour in this '90 episode already and I'm here for it, if I'm honest. #TOTP

It took me an embarrassingly long time while watching that to realise the dance routine and outfits in that last set was an Elvis tribute... 🫣 It's been a long week and I'm very tired. #TOTP

It is NOT about driving, but you're still a queen, Janice πŸ˜† #TOTP

If memory serves, No Mercy also had a song after this one that sounded almost exactly the same and was called... 'Please Don't Go' #TOTP

One of the loveliest things when I manage to make it out to a midweek matinee are the seatmate friends I make. Like, it's just mutual theatre fan appreciation for what we're seeing and what we've seen and sometimes some recommendations,

#JuniorBakeOff remains a wholesome, soul-mending tonic

I relish the chance to listen to these certified bangers and bops on Beeb Four as much as the next nostalgia junkie... but let's be honest, we're playing a little fast and loose with the definition of 'One Hit Wonder' in some of these cases. πŸ˜„ #TOTP

I cringed so hard at the end of that #BBCCasualty ep that I may never be able to uncringe myself. Jodie, Jodie, Jodie... 🫣

Apropos of nothing, the recent EE adverts have the best music.

This bit of tonight's episode broke my little heart. So much quiet power in a few minutes of scene. There's only one Steve McFadden and we're lucky to have him #EastEnders

This is the Mondayest Friday that ever Fridayed. Also, why when I was actually in the lab over Christmas do the three days I've been away feel like three weeks? What is happening and what is time?

And no matter how many times I watched it growing up I still hoped (wished!) Christmas No.1 was not that nonsense... #TOTP

Apropos of nothing, I had this 93 Christmas #TOTP recorded on VHS as a kid and am seeing how much of the running order of songs I can remember at the mo.

I have cried so many times tonight I've given myself an 'eadache. These two though. πŸ«ΆπŸ’• #Strictly

Oh good, more sobbing. I am dehydrated and MADE UP ❀️😭 #Strictly

These two have my whole heart. What a partnership. Truly magical. #Strictly

That out of office feeling.

Having to repeatedly describe your chronic illness and the fact that it won't get any better with time to the state is a chronic pain all of its own, to be completely honest...

Vivid memories of sobbing over my breakfast seeing this live that morning, and being in a weird headspace for days after. It was a lot for my little teen heart. πŸ₯²

Jamie and Chris's faces during this intro are a mood. I hate this danceathon nonsense. #Strictly

Will there ever be a week Chris & Dianne don't take me sob with joy and awe? I think not. #Strictly

Well, I thought that was beautifully danced and choreographed from Jamie & Michelle, personally πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ #Strictly

Amy! 🫢 #Strictly

Eeeh, well, that was a lovely couple of hours. Thank you, fellow #TOTP ers!

I remember when I was young I kept thinking I was mishearing the Smooth Criminal lyrics because 'Annie Are You Ok?' was such a random thing to be singing. #TOTP

Ooh-wa-ooh-wa-ooh-wa-ooh! Bop. #TOTP

I hate when they tease us with a banging track in the background of their segues that we don't get to hear in full. Play 'Left To My Own Devices' already. #TOTP

#TOTP

Well, on balance, that was a rather strong #TOTP edition. Gr80s. #TOTP

I particularly love when the falsetto-y bit kicks in at the end of this one. #TOTP

My word, the whining, though. #TOTP

Aa-aa-ay-ya-eya-eya... #TOTP

Literally zero memory (or knowledge) of this Jacko song. #TOTP

I love 'Unbreak My Heart' but it does go on for about a week, doesn't it, mates? #TOTP
