I know it's not quite Strait of Hormuz level, but on top of all the other bad news around this is most unwelcome! Relish your last pot of Gentleman’s Relish – it’s officially toast telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/04/0…

@MarkRossdog @OldRoberts953 Channel Four did briefly but soon went out of vision. Yorkshire abandoned in vision shortly after starting in 1968.

@OldRoberts953 Great piece. Was it only ITV where they had the CA on screen sitting in a chair? I vaguely remember those.

Good Friday. 3pm on a Friday afternoon. My little church in Durham is packed to the brim. There was a queue round the street. Every pew is full. The entryway is full, too. Over half the congregation is Gen Z. Many are Gen Alpha. We are in the age of the Catholic revival.

@WelsbyElton Same occasion but this was before Truss arrived. No wonder she was smiling.

It's lovely that in these days of digital media, folk at @spectator and @PersephoneBooks make such an effort to produce beautiful physical reading material such as these. Starting 'Long Live Great Bardfield' today.

@CameronYardeJnr He finished a piece to camera, about railways, on a bridge and as soon as he finished a train came through. Even the presenter, whom I won't name (you can guess) said "how on earth did he do that?!"

@CameronYardeJnr I don't think Burke is trying to pretend its a single shot, to be fair. Buerks' is also good. The best example, and I doubt it will ever be found, is by the late Nick Clarke, on Look North (as it then was) Manchester.
