Happy Monday, movie lovers 🍿☀️, How was your weekend at the cinema? 🎬 Tell us what you watched 👇

@HiddenYorkshire I would suggest Tipp-Ex but I always hated that muck!

TRIED TO RUB OUT SOMETHING IN PENCIL AND NOW THERE'S A BLACK SMUDGE EVERYWHERE

@NicholasTyrone Your assuming Reform want Rees-Mogg in the party?

Seriously, why doesn’t Rees-Mogg just join Reform and be done with it?

You know the Balkans are healing when at the Eurovision the Serbs vote for the Croats and the Croats for the Serbs

@woofknight I think the British Isles should count separate as druid "Witch Country"

@PopmasterTM You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)

Today in 2012, Adele’s 21 was dominating charts worldwide — no skips, just hits. What’s the first song that comes to mind with “YOU” in the title 👇 #PopMaster

Monday

how seedless buns are made

Just saw The Great Gatsby described as "unreadable". You can dislike it, go right ahead, but it is one of the most easy-to-read classics I can think of (& beautifully written at the same time). Open the schools.

German armour leading the spearheads had advanced far ahead of the horse drawn infantry in the rear still advancing over the Meuse River. Hitler was worried that a full scale assault by the tanks against a potentially fortified town might result in heavy casualties and end the encirclement if the British/French could break out towards the south. Also German tank crews were taking amphetamines to stay awake Very long hours and would start feeling fatigue soon.

@Kurt_Steiner Germany could have essentially forced an end to the war at Dunkirk. To this day I have never heard a plausible explanation for why they didn’t force their advantage.

The more I read about the German war effort 1941 onwards, the more I’m struck by how they failed to comprehend the nature of the war they were fighting until it was much too late.

On this day in 1944, the fortified hilltop abbey of Monte Cassino falls to the Allies. It takes four bloody assaults over 123 days before the summit is finally captured leaving 55,000 Allied troops dead or wounded. German casualties are 20,000.

@canedeeman The Rolls Royce Merlin engine, used in British fighters in The Battle Of Britain but later in the P51 Mustang offering long range fighter support in the Pacific theatre.

In your opinion what technology won WWII (or 11 if you're Somali) for the US? I'm going with the proximity fuse.

@DuoDab @joanneaaltoo Usually the winner has two minutes to process that they've won the contest, stagger to the main stage and then perform a very stripped backed version of the song while holding back the tears and keeping the falling debris out of their eyes.

@joanneaaltoo Was it seriously improvised???

esta performance siendo la cosa MÁS icónica que se ha hecho en la historia de eurovision - coge las sillas de la green room - la pose justo antes de bajar las escaleras en la parte del rap - la bajada de las escaleras a tempo con el beat de la canción

R.I.P. American musician DENNIS LOCORRIERE. ❤️ Dennis singing - "When You're in Love with a Beautiful Woman". Dennis (far right below) was the lead singer of Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show. Dennis and I, followed each other on my old Twitter account.

I think for next year’s Eurovision we should submit the song from the Pepto Bismol ad. Maybe slow it down to a ballad and throw in a key change, see if that gets us any votes.
