@GuillemBalague @edfringe I did think I saw you at Philosophy of the World, then went 'nah, can't be..' Maradona play sounds great!

Last weekend of the @edfringe. In my 11th year, I spent two weeks in Edinburgh. Let me show you what impressed me the most and I will give you a little update on my career related to the Fringe 🪄👊🏽✍️

It's the ever-essential Edinburgh Fringe 2025 round-up from @SiHawkins This year's highlights - American mavericks, Britpop breakdowns, and sibling angst... oh, and a bit of Oasis! clashmusic.com/features/edinb…

@brucedes Read that as Kevin - absolutely bewildered for a minute there

Helen Whateley is completely out of her depth on the subject of Thames Water. #bbcqt

Can we start a campaign to Release the Acaster Cut?

Tragic R.I.P

@RobertAuton I'm intrigued how he ever came up.. something about groundhog day?

Out of all the things I’ve seen on the internet, the one that rattles around my head the most is the fact that Gary Neville doesn’t know who Bill Murray is. “I don’t watch films.”

@theofficialfwa I only met Paddy once - at the greatest game I ever saw. He was in my seat at Oxford/Orient '06, apologetically moved, but left me with his laptop for a while, which was charging. Was sorely tempted to try a quick para & see what happened, like a sportswriting Billy's Boots

A MESSAGE FROM THE FAMILY OF PATRICK BARCLAY "It is with the greatest sadness that we must announce the death of our dear Patrick Barclay. A celebration of Patrick’s life will be held at a later date. Meanwhile, we hope that the family’s wish for privacy is respected." Full tributes to follow...

Brexit. In three headlines.

Jaden Smith continuing the family tradition of ruining awards ceremonies for everyone.

It's the (hopefully) triumphant return of @WeirdosComedy's panto tomorrow, for charity - although my chat with Cerys Bradley featured a heartfelt appeal for missing crisps. Have YOU seen them? Cerys would love to know comedy.co.uk/live/random8/c…

@brucedes Last thing I saw, he was writing for Sewing Bee (I think), so maybe that sort of thing has taken over, off camera, saving the gags for more lucrative outlets?

@SiHawkins But seriously whats happened to him? Used to be funny online and onstage and has vanished.

Anyone seen Adam Hess lately? #LuigiMangione

The Weirdos Panto returns. One night only at @bloomstheatre All money goes to charity. Buy a ticket today for a glorious night out of silliness. ucl.ac.uk/bloomsbury-the…

Yes, yes The Old Vic's Christmas Carol, Julian Clary's panto and Jools' Hootenanny - this is 2024's festive show to see. Well, if they've worked out what to do with it - I had a lazy Sunday chat with Riches, who was busy baking for Kearns. "He demands banana bread..."

Is he just waiting for the last of us liberal types to leave, then he'll turn the X into a swastika?

Hi followers, I recently did my first pre-tour interview. In it I mention newscasters Kenneth Kendal AND Richard Baker, so a riveting read is guaranteed! comedy.co.uk/live/random8/j…

Thoughts with our friends in the United States this morning. Why not donate to @ACLU - a vital hub for numerous key campaigns to protect civil liberties. aclu.org

Bless that @JaneyGodley whose hilarious fury was in equal measure to her gloriously mischievous compassion x

Only one big-in-the-90s-&-on-tour-next-year rock icon I wanted to interview. Absolutely dripping with attitude (& probably dripping) "If I disagree with someone I’m very likely to say ‘You’ve made a grave error!’ Or ‘You’re very wide of the mark, lad!'" comedy.co.uk/live/random8/j…

A pleasure to chop it up with #TheChroniclesofDOOM author SKIZ Fernando Jr on anything from breadcrumbs of esoterica the #Supervillain would lay in his lyrics, to his underrated production skills. Published by @FaberBooks on 7/11. LISTEN: amarofpatel.substack.com/p/moonbeam-lev… #MFDOOM #DOOM
