How’s this going to work? Do we all agree a day & time when we all leave here en masse? Finger hovering over delete button, awaiting advice..

Who said Elon couldn’t build a great social media site?

@stritenata @JasonCritic @JadeCuttle @BBCFrontRow Thank you. Very kind.

@tds153 @JasonCritic @JadeCuttle Always enjoy @BBCFrontRow when you’re in the chair Tom.

On Front Row tonight: @Jasoncritic and @jadecuttle review Jacques Audiard’s extraordinary film Emilia Perez and Mati Diop’s Dahomey. And Tim Burton talks about being Tim Burton.

@DrMatthewSweet Sybarite!!

Night all

On tonight's @BBCFrontRow we are reviewing Tim Winton's SF novel Juice - Scheherazade meets Mad Max - Francois Ozon's witty and unexpected 30s screwball take on #MeToo: The Crime Is Mine. Plus The Franchise. With @MelGiedroycUK and @Sarahc_k. 715pm R4 bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…

@eggsbened Get better soon David. Mr Blandings Builds His Dream House is on iPlayer.

It is (possibly) too early to send floral tributes but food parcels/chicken soup are welcomed since you find me abed, running a temperature with suspected Covid. I shall attempt the cure of watching b+w films though possibly not this one where La Stanwyck is terrorised at home.

Ok, here we go: Much of my work concerns the history and return of scientific racism. I’ve written extensively about attempts to resurrect the shuffling corpse of race science and eugenics for many years. Bigotry dressed up as biology. 1/n

On the Front Row menu last night: Spaghetti and Strawberry Parfait. Simon Wright and Akemi Yokoyama join us to talk about Japan’s replica food culture. Also Jodie Whittaker on playing the Duchess of Malfi, Anne Michaels and Baroness Ludford on tickets. Listen on BBC Sounds.

@LevParikian I saw them when they played Narvik.

They used to be the definition of indie but it really feels like Aurora Borealis have sold out recently.

@RRussellDavies I remember it. And used it without a clue about its etymology. Some kind of educational social club?

There's plenty of reason to use the phrase these days, but does ANYBODY remember calling someone "dim as a Toc-H lamp"? I caught it from my mother and it still comes into my mind, but I can't use it because nobody remembers what Toc-H was.

Some excellent stuff over on Bluesky these days.

@sapphitweet Well they did this a while ago. Which put the case against very eloquently. bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…

NO to assisted dying or state murder I call it. We need good palliative care not death by state. Curses on Esther Rantzen who is constantly on BBC. When will the BBC let disabled people speak on this as it will impact on us all. So biased.

@DrMatthewSweet “Hear me out. A serial killer movie. But all the victims are show tunes!”

Well the new Joker movie certainly answers the question what would a DC version of an Anthony Newley musical look like if Anthony Newley couldn’t be bothered to write any original songs.

In the Front Row studio tonight: Ryan Gilbey, Joe Lycett and Charlotte Mullins to talk about Sally Rooney’s latest, Monet’s views of London and Megalopolis. And painting! Join us on Radio Four in five.
