@faustocoppi60 Was anybody watching?

...and he's gone! Tadej Pogacar goes solo with 21 km to go, after attacking on a descent. He can do everything. #TreValliVaresine

@JasperRenema Didn’t someone once say that about Lance Armstrong ? 🤣

Pogacar is the greatest cyclist ever. You can't change my mind.

@lucasaganronald I wonder how many folks turned the tv coverage off and all ?

Wallpaper for you from today’s European Championships. 💙 Interesting thing… only 17 riders from 101 finished today’s race. Only 16,83%. The last finisher was Mats Wenzel from Luxembourg. For the comparision, at World Championships, 30 riders finished from 165 and that is 18,18%. 📷: Allan Loonis #EuroRoad25

@lucasaganronald A super sauce year for sure …

Tadej Pogačar this year: 🏆 UAE Tour 🏆 Strade Bianche 🏆 Ronde van Vlaanderen 🏆 Fleche Wallonne 🏆 Liege Bastogne Liege 🏆 Criterium du Dauphine 🏆 Tour de France 🏆 World Champion 🏆 European Champion And podiumed every monument.

@JamesAHogg2 Absolute class!

In celebration of the great Ronnie Barker, who would have been 96 yesterday (I'm late, sorry) I've decided to post his celebrated mispronunciation sketch. As some of you will know, like many Two Ronnies sketches featuring just Ronnie B, it was written by Barker himself under the pseudonym of Gerald Wiley and is a masterpiece of comedic wordplay. In case you aren't aware of the story behind Gerald Wiley, Ronnie Barker would bring sketches to rehearsals claiming they had been written by a man called Gerald Wiley who had submitted them through Barker's agent, Peter Eade. So as not to arouse suspicion, Barker would even criticize some of the sketches, going so far as to telling Ronnie Corbett that some of them were poorly written. The truth was eventually revealed in a Chinese restaurant where, in front of the cast and crew, Barker stood up and admitted he was Gerald Wiley, although many didn't believe him. Incidentally, while I was writing Richard Briers' authorised biography I came across a set of postcards in Richard's study that had been sent to him by Ronnie Barker. Each one starts with "Now look here!" and have a running theme of Ronnie trying to find Richard a suitable "mental facility" in which he's to be committed! Anyway, God bless Ronnie Barker.

51 years ago today, The Rockford Files debuted. Who else loved this show and theme song?

The CEO of IKEA was just elected Prime Minister in Sweden. He should have his cabinet together by the end of the weekend.

@FXMC1957 Great … Super… 🤣🤣

8 September 1976. 1st episode of the BBC sitcom The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin was broadcast. It starred Leonard Rossiter in the title role of a man who fakes his own death to escape suburbia. There were 3 series from 1976 to 1979.

@johnmcdonnellMP Now there is a statement in the bleeding obvious!

Labour’s National Executive Committee tomorrow to decide timetable for deputy leadership election. Nominations close on Thursday. So no time for party members to meet in CLPs to discuss who their MP should nominate. Pretty clear leadership wants to bounce their own candidate thru

Heartbreaking: Cam Hayward says he has not made enough money for his family and needs a new deal. “This is a business. I cannot play this game forever. I want to be maximized outside of (the field)” Cam has only earned ~$145 million so far 😔💔

@JamesAHogg2 Class 🤣🤣

The late Derek Fowlds was born on this day in 1937, which gives me a chance to post this absolute banger. God bless Derek!

@Johnnypapa64 As master a wordsmith as Ronnie B … class

In awe, I watched the waxing moon ride across the zenith of the heavens like an ambered chariot towards the ebony void of infinite space wherein the tethered belts of Jupiter and Mars hang, for ever festooned in their orbital majesty. And as I looked at all this I thought... I must put a roof on this toilet.
