I’ve written a novel. ‘“Not-something” has re-written the rules of science fiction comedy’, said absolutely no-one. Paperback and hardback coming soon. a.co/d/1h9WZ7e

What do we think of the brand new series of #MasterChefTheProfessionals with Matt Teburt from Saturday Kitchen as the new judge? I love that they're bringing in previous winners and finalists to set the skills test. They should've done that originally. #MasterChefUK

In-game adverts debuting on @ITVRugby during the 6 Nations. Game's gone. The yankification of sports coverage in this country needs to stop. #FRAvIRE #GuinnessM6N

Pitch-side punditry just doesn’t work. It’s so obviously too loud and distracting. Don’t kid yourself it adds atmosphere tv producers - it’s crap tv - I can’t bloody hear #GuinnessM6N

@jdpoc @ChrisMasonBBC Well, I don’t know him well but I knew him a bit at the BBC - he’s just a lovely guy - v smart - and nice to deal with - so that’s a first hand experience rather than the bollocks you talk.

When I see @ChrisMasonBBC onscreen (I hate him and everything he stands for) I comfort myself with the fact that I hear from every quarter, Mason is so loathed within the #BBC the offscreen & technical people hate him EVEN MORE than I do. Didn't even think that was possible.

THE NIGHT SKY ON MARS LOOKS INSANE Imagine standing on Martian soil under a sky so dense with stars it feels unreal. That’s the view - no atmosphere to blur it, no city lights to drown it out. How long until we’re the ones under that sky?

@dhruv_rathee It was grounded after the battery fires. It may have NOTHING to do with this awful accident but it is a fact. I know because I covered the story as the BBC’s transport correspondent. They fixed the issue by putting the batteries in fire proof boxes.

This is the first time in history that a B-787 Dreamliner plane has crashed. It is considered to be one of the safest aircrafts. Absolutely Shocking!

@DirtyLyle It’s like he’s read, “how to speak like a commentator” - good knowledge, zero authenticity.

@pistol147 On another note, fantastic commentary analysis Mark. I learned a lot about modern tactics/mindset. And a few good gags.

@WeahsCousin Forget the commentators - the camerawork was ABYSMAL - missing key moments, losing the ball, no replays of key things, did Rory clip the top of the fairway bunker of not, no idea because they missed it. Open coverage is in another league compared to Masters. Shocking and shite.
