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

@RyanSoapKing25 So much better - proper chefs judging - gone are the cliches - big improvement

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

@MrJamesCosgrove @ITVRugby Get used to it - sadly the ad world is convinced ‘it’s the future’

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

@Beno10_MFC Shirt collar

What's that difference in the photo?? 🤨🤓

@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.

@BLackgold_5 Clandestine

Describe in one word?

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!

@CowboyShepherd2 Tomcat

Which kit should go on the bench next? I’ll build whatever gets the most votes by tomorrow morning 🤠

@airmainengineer Hurricane, surely?

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

Not a fan of Shaun Murphy in the commentary box. If you’ve been to Tenerife you know he’s been to Elevenerife 🙄 #WorldSnookerChampionship #Snooker #bbcsnooker

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

Shot of the championships over after 3 days 😂😂😂 ridiculous

@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.

“He deserves that green jacket, speaking of green jackets I won it three times, but today isn’t about me it’s about Rory, who’s now just two green jackets behind me”

@AcepilotAV BAC 1-11 300 series. Or an Osprey. Def one of the two.

Guess the aircraft

@Just_Randle @elonmusk What a plane!….You’ve probably read it but if anyone hasn’t….”Skunkworks” by Ben Rich - behind the scenes on how they made it.

@elonmusk Evening launch of the Sr-71 Okinawa late 80’s, the Archangel-12 was the precursor to the SR-71
