Marc Blank-Settle marcsettle.bsky.social

I’m not abandoning this place entirely - I still get value from the tweets of brands such as tech accounts & some personal ones even though most people rarely post now. But I’m here a lot less these days & you’re more likely to find me on BlueSky - marcsettle.Bsky.social. 💙🦋

@TomSykesUK indeed. that's why I'm interested to know a bit more about his use of it!

@MarcSettle @thetvroom Don’t want to get anyone in trouble. He did break cover and said it was him filming it though. It sounded fine but the lack of redundancy would have concerned me

Look how far we have come with broadcast sound recording. More and more now seeing the £70 Hollyland Lark M2S being used on key interviews. #broadcast #soundrecording

@TomSykesUK @thetvroom I’ve emailed him to get a bit more information, but haven’t had a reply yet. It’s very interesting that he’s happy with those microphones for such a high profile interview…

@MarcSettle @thetvroom The camo told me he likes them so used them.

@ArsenalNews_Hub You’re just making these up.

William Saliba reveals the message he sent Mikel Merino ahead of tonight’s World Cup semi-final against Spain. 🗣️ William Saliba: “I spoke to Mikel last night and told him, ‘If you’re thinking about scoring another late winner, you’ll have to get past me first and I’m not planning to make it easy.’” 🗣️ “We both had a laugh about it, but once the game kicks off, the friendship is put on hold until the final whistle.” 🗣️ “Mikel has made a huge impact coming off the bench, and we know exactly what he’s capable of. We have to stay focused and alert from the first minute right through to the end.” 🗣️ “He’s my Arsenal teammate, but tonight we’re representing our countries. In a World Cup semi-final, there are no favours. Once it’s over, we’ll be teammates and friends again.” #FRAESP #FIFAWorldCup***

@ArsenalNews_Hub oh look. You've done it before!

🚨 Leandro Trossard on his emotional Arsenal departure. ❤️ “I feel so sad about leaving because this club has been everything to me.” “This is probably the hardest decision I’ve made in my career. It wasn’t easy to say yes, but I also feel it’s the right time to begin a new chapter.” “One of the reasons I chose Beşiktaş over some clubs in England is because I didn’t want to be playing against Arsenal. This club means too much to me, and I didn’t want to find myself on the opposite side.” “No matter where my career takes me, a part of me will always belong to Arsenal. I’ll always be grateful to the fans, my teammates, the manager and everyone at the club.” “The thing I’m most proud of is that I was able to win the Premier League with Arsenal. That’s a memory I’ll carry with me forever, and nobody can ever take it away.” ❤️🤍 🔴⚪️ #LeandroTrossard #Arsenal #Beşiktaş #COYG

@ArsenalNews_Hub Rather curious that you're the only Arsenal-related account carrying these quotes from Trossard, despite them being at least two hours old. Search Twitter (and online more broadly) and I can't find these quotes anywhere else. Where did you get them from?

@TomSykesUK @thetvroom Ok. I’m hoping there’s a benign explanation!

@MarcSettle @thetvroom Not visible on the wide set up shot.

@iDeviceHelpus Just wondering if you ever apologised for getting it wrong?

@faisalislam How’s that looking for you now, mate?

Roll on the “didnt know what football was till I saw Fever Pitch reviewed in the Times Literary Supplement” bottle-job experts, with the trophyphobic manager less successful than Erik Ten Hag, next week Sunday at the Emirates too. I would just love it if Villa won the title. 😆

Meanwhile… these days … it’s hard to believe many things… including “it’s not Scholes. It’s Carrick…. Yerrrrrr knowwwww” 😆 👹

These are all *brilliant* names for places in the UK - foreigners would barely believe they are genuine 😂

@Jack_Nostalgic @BufferingBrit Much appreciated! (I’m trying to help bbc journalists get a strong signal when they’re uploading or going live from location, hence my interest in your campaign)

@MarcSettle @BufferingBrit I’ll look into it and get back to you!

Ofcom's speed map claims 96% of the country has 4G coverage. We're pretty sure that's wrong. Download the Buffering Britain App so we can crowdsource real-world data to hold them to account.

@Jack_Nostalgic @BufferingBrit 16e on 26.5

@MarcSettle @BufferingBrit Hmmm this doesn’t look like what we’ve seen in testing. Can you send me a DM with your device and which version of iOS you’re running? I’ll look into it.

Love how this guy @Redfoxi has gone bonkers viral. He usually tweets once a month (if that…!) and usually sees barely any interaction. He’s going to get the shock of his life when he next logs in…

@photojoseph @camolNFT “I thought I knew all about white balance, then I learned this one thing which changed everything” doesn’t have the same appeal, sadly.

I should learn to engagement bait like this twat. Look at those numbers, just from saying something utterly stupid.

@blake_calhoun @Vimeo Bending Spoons must be doing something right, in someone's eyes... techcrunch.com/2026/07/01/ben…

Well, kind of wondered if this would happen after the sale to Bending Spoons and sure enough… @Vimeo is shutting down their on-demand service. Ugh. I have lots of titles on there and now need to find them a new home. vimeo.com/ondemand/shutd…

@ReallyEpicTuts @iFilmmakers Oh hush now. I can’t believe you’ve learned anything from me 🤪

@MarcSettle @iFilmmakers I've learnt a lot from both you, Marc, and Blake as well. I really appreciate the kindness and support from the two of you. And thanks so much for sharing the love at the Big British Castle.

@photojoseph @Stephen_Neal @timsneath My week starts on Winesday and ends on Ginsday 🥃

@Stephen_Neal @timsneath 😅 @MarcSettle can you confirm?

Lived in the USA for 22 years, adapted to countless cultural and linguistic differences, and even became a citizen. But the first thing I do on any new device is change the calendar to start on Monday. How do y'all look at a weekend split in half and think "yeah, this is fine"?

@weddingpresent @kexp “Damage” and “Folly” sound like new songs? (I’ve not listened to the recording yet so you may well have introduced them as such)

The songs performed for @kexp were: Loveslave / Damage / Hot Wheels / Montreal / Folly / Catwoman / We Interrupt Our Programme / Lovenest / Box Elder

@MacRumors is it *everything* or just 12 things?
