@HiddenYorkshire The Office (orig UK) version is like this too i think. Rewatched it last year. In 2001, Tim, Dawn and David Brent were tragic figures in normal but dull stable jobs, not following dreams. Now i look at it and feel like saying, you’re all doing great!

thinking about the "suburban horror" trope and how badly it's aged...oooh, it's a nice, high-trust, low-crime suburban community where kids can play on the street and everyone knows each other and a single salary can buy a nice house and garden and a car? sounds pretty good to me. oh wait...you're going to tell me that nothing is quite as it seems? that there's a dark secret lurking beneath the polished, friendly exterior? groundbreaking....

Yesterday I was lucky enough to be at the Wigmore Hall to see @ErrollynWallen play and Ruby Hughes sing, and it was GREAT. And it was going out live on Radio 3 so you can hear it here. A grand hour. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

Yes, kids still read comics "nowadays". No, it would not be a good idea to bring corporal punishment back into the Beano. There's no 'p' in DC Thomson. No, comics are not "drawn by computer" these days. Hope that helps. 😄

Brain/tech link in science fiction: "I know kung fu!" What we'll actually get: "I have a monthly subscription to knowing kung fu and they just hiked the charges again and I still keep getting unskippable ads in the middle of kung fu"

I have 5 litres of fake blood i'd like to get rid of. About 70 quidsworth. What I'd *like* to do is, donate them to someone heroically making a zero-budget horror movie on a wing and a prayer. Is that u or someone u know? Who can collect from an N10 address? DMs are open!

As today's her birthday, today I remember Debbie Barham, a comedy writer of my generation who died very young. As far as I know, she was the youngest broadcast comedy writer there ever was or will be. 17 when she turned pro! independent.co.uk/news/obituarie…
