@bbcquestiontime I had to switch this off. Fiona Bruce is unbearable and Piers Morgan is a loudmouth.

@papaslippers76 @chris_sutton73 Sutton's only won 2 more trophies than Tavernier has won in his career to date!

Not sure what the fuss is about re Celtic’s ticket allocation at Ibrox. If the Scottish Cup rules allow up to 20% of the stadium’s capacity then that’s what it should be… it would be good to get back how it used to be in the league as well…

Everyone at Celtic Football Club is deeply saddened at the news that Celtic legend and goalscoring hero, Dixie Deans has sadly passed away at the age of 79.

@AliceCoote @RSNO Very sorry to hear about your mother. I was in the middle of the front row of the stalls in Glasgow tonight and was absolutely blown away by your performance of Sea Pictures. Thank you.

I lost my mother 8 weeks ago. Before he died my father wrote "upwards " in the last page of Elgar's Sea pictures. I will try to sing this piece tonight in Glasgow & @RSNO. Last nite Edinburgh. This is for ALL singers who use their bodies to express, through grief and loss, life💔

@rickygervais These two books by @ajcdeane
Everyday’s a school day when read these books.

Happy #WorldBookDay
I studied this book everyday for about 5 years as a teenager. It was like my Bible. What book have you read more than any other?
English
@ajcdeane Many congratulations on becoming a father and best wishes to your wife.

@ajcdeane I see that another sporting hero from one of your stories, Chris Nicholl, has sadly died at the age of 77. He famously scored all 4 goals in a 2-2 draw between Aston Villa and Leicester.
Rest in peace.

Here's #Deanehistory 209, the story I told on @TimesRadio last night with @edvaizey.
In the autumn of 1940, as German ships massed off the Belgian coast, preparing to invade Britain, the outgunned and outnumbered Royal Air Force flew desperate sorties to bomb them and...

@ajcdeane In 1978, playing for Bridgend against the All Blacks, his face was stamped on and raked by tourist, John Ashworth. His own father, Peter, inserted 30 stitches and JPR rejoined the game.
A man of unrivalled courage.
From Martin Hannah’s excellent tribute in today’s Herald.
English
RIP, the great JPR Williams.
Alex Deane@ajcdeane
Of course, whilst the instruction to hit the nearest South African is clear, in some passages of play the nearest South African to you might be some way away. At one point in a game in Port Elizabeth, the Lions full back JPR Williams was hanging back in a defensive position,

I have read these two books so many times but tonight I feel like being enlightened again. 🍷📚
If you haven’t read them yet I really recommend them.
You won’t be disappointed.

@ajcdeane @GeorgeBuchan14 Just realised that the football team Vojvodina Novi Sad, defeated 2-1 on aggregate by Celtic in 1967 on their way to winning the European Cup, are named after the Serbian word for voivodeship. I attended the home leg when Billy McNeill scored an 90th minute winner. 👍

#Deanehistory 207. It is certain we can carry nothing out.

When the head of the House of Hapsburg dies, a remarkable set of rites take place. Lest these seem impossibly rococo & of the distant past, I mention at that they were last deployed in 2011.
English
@ajcdeane Currently researching areas in Central Europe which I have never heard of, e.g. Hohenembs.
I remember hearing about the title of Margrave in a previous story, but Voivode is a new one to me.
As well as being a great story, this is a complete education.

First, whilst the body is interred in Austria, the heart is buried in Hungary. A powerful image and statement of personal unions that transcend current national borders, but I wanted to emphasise something else.

@ajcdeane Pointless has been starting with a daily fact recently. Today we were asked about the shortest ever war. Having read Lessons from History, I knew right away that it was the Anglo-Zanzibar war, 45 minutes if you’re interested. Great what you can learn from Alex Deane’s books.
