In my latest article for @BroadcastBridge we visit Marconi's Poldhu Station, near my childhood home in Cornwall. But what does this have to do with why #media needs "The #Cloud" in the world of 2023...? Read on to find out! thebroadcastbridge.com/content/entry/…

@nalinrajput23 Proof that wrong answers are much more fun (there are plenty of better ways to find the right answer, so why post on here?)

What’s the function of this in a laptop charger?

Possibly controversial opinion: The licence fee needs to die. If they're still trying to collect it in 2034 this will be a failure by any account. inews.co.uk/news/media/bbc…

@AntiWokePsych @SW_Help The trouble with these seasonal disaster days is that they're exactly the times folk venture out onto the railway who rarely do otherwise. And then they go home saying "never again".

@mediatechpaul @SW_Help That makes a change 🙄

@SW_Help Waited at Farnham in the cold for 40 mins. No bus. Paying for a taxi.

@SW_Help "To help you complete your journey" is terrible wording here. You're not doing us a favour, you're fulfilling an obligation to get us to where we've paid to go, and we're suffering a 2 hour delay on a journey that was only supposed to take an hour. Shambles.

@RealtimeTrains Love it

@mark395625 @paulduck16 You can't really blame people for thinking the Network Railcard might be valid anywhere on Network Rail.

@paulduck16 I saw one being presented to a conductor at Workington. Must have been confused with that and Woking. Its national network card innit?

Well thats a first. Passenger asks for a return to London and presents a Dales Railcard. But its valid anytime in Yorkshire! London isn't in Yorkshire.

@ianvisits Covered roundels now in place

A second entrance for the Northern line’s joint-newest tube station, at Battersea Power Station, looks ready to open very shortly. ianvisits.co.uk/articles/batte… ianvisits.co.uk/articles/batte…

@mindthedawes I thought TfL were against it precisely because it would be too popular, bringing yet more people to the already crowded Victoria line?

A new station at Brixton on the Windrush Line seems like an absolute no brainer from a demand perspective - but unfortunately engineering constraints mean the new station would cost in the region of £120 million to build.

@geofftech @ianvisits Battersea Power Station (Station) Western entrance opening imminent, but no sign of work yet on the underpass from Stewart's Road

@Citymapper this is misleading, Vauxhall tube is closed, not mainline

@Swoody1500 @Modern_Railways Yeah you'd have had to change from St Pancras to Paddington to make that journey, so a tube or a taxi. I get it. And CrossCountry would be better if a bit longer. But getting from Newcastle to Brighton just involves a 50m walk over the road from Kings Cross to St Pancras.

@mediatechpaul @Modern_Railways I went derby to exeter via London with my wife, two rucksacks and two dogs. Was so stressful

@Swoody1500 @Modern_Railways I mean, I get the point, changing trains can be annoying, but it gets a bit extreme if you're determined to spend an extra 4 hours on a Voyager just to avoid 50m walk at Kings Cross

@Swoody1500 @Modern_Railways Who wants to sit on a train for 8 hours if you have young kids, dogs or luggage?
