@cineworld And give Paddington Bear hard stares to the people who have popcorn at Cineworld because you serve it in the noisiest paper bags known to man!

@M6tollRoad I see these smug messages have started up again. I didn't see any yesterday saying "you could have wasted hours sitting stationary on the M6 Toll on 14/09/2025“ though...

You could have saved 13 minutes if you'd have taken the toll at 15/09/2025 17:08. Dodge the traffic. Breeze through the Midlands.

@daftpunk Saw this at Showcase Derby & while it was good the sound was far too quiet. Warwick Student Cinema in Coventry runs films at the proper volume level but as this was "1 night only" it's impossible to book it. Wish an exception could be made so I could see it how it should be seen!

@fesshole I had BritBox where they had all of classic Dr Who, Space Cops, and lots more classic TV. Then BritBox shut and moved to ITVX. Then Dr Who disappeared, and Space Cops wasn't there any more. If you own shows on DVD then other than technical failure, you can watch them forever.

I have 2 book cases full of DVDs. My TV's DVD player died last year and my laptop with a DVD drive died today. Suddenly, I wonder whether I even want to watch my 6 disc Brush Strokes box set. I'm in crisis about the cash I spent on DVDs I'll never want to watch again.

We’re pleased that the RMT has called off all its remaining strike action for Avanti West Coast on Sundays, previously due to run until 25 May 2025. On all these upcoming dates, we’ll now run our normal Sunday timetable and tickets are back on sale.

@AldiUK Except, even without a Clubcard, a decent sandwich, snack, and a drink (i.e. Meal Deal) costs less at Tesco

@M6tollRoad Breeze customers flow through the toll lanes more freely and you keep hold of our money so you know we can pay for going through but we don't get any real discount... There should be 50% discount off the standard Class 2 toll!

Interesting that @BBCBlindGazza is cautioning someone he's interviewing when they describe the secret service blowing a gunman's head off, not 20 minutes after he dropped the f-bomb on BBC News!

@thisismattcrabb It's a bit of a shame that Hits has reduced the local-ness of local commercial radio, though at least they're not as bad as Heart or Capital in that regard. It's so much more difficult for local talent to get a foot in the door now!

It was 16 years ago today that I did my first show on commercial radio. It was on Ivel FM covering the 10pm-1am slot 😎 Ivel is now Greatest Hits Radio and I broadcast on its sister station Hits Radio from the studio next door. I’m very grateful to still be doing my dream job 💙

@Peston I watched the Central News special on this last night, followed by the main 6.30 ITV News and I was not emotionally prepared for it. I was crying for quite some time during those programmes.

The infected blood scandal is the greatest failure of the British state of my lifetime. The cruelty and arrogance of doctors, civil servants, administrators and ministers, all of whom thought they knew best both in the lethal treatments they gave to vulnerable people but then in decades of cover-up, will make you want to want to cry, when you read the Langstaff inquiry report. The lives of 30,000 infected people, including 3000 who have died, and their families have been wrecked. No government apology or amount of compensation can give them back what they have lost, though the £10bn or so that will be awarded is long overdue. This from Sir Brian Langstaff gives you a small flavour: “This disaster was not an accident. The infections happened because those in authority - doctors, the blood services and successive governments - did not put patient safety first.  The response of those in authority served to compound people’s suffering.”

@thetrainline Booking any train on any of the train operating companies' apps, using your booking engine, but not paying a booking fee. Just as easy and cheaper.

What's easier than booking your trains on our app? Not much, really.

@KeiziTV If I didn't have a Limitless cinema pass that cost me less than £150 for a year, I don't think I would watch half as much at the cinema as I do. The local "good* Odeon cinema now charges £18 per seat so watching a film with a friend is an expensive prospect!

@TGIFridaysUK how are we supposed to know that the restaurant we have booked for doesn't participate in the set menu deal on a Sunday? There's no exclusion mentioned in the offer Ts & C's to make it clear... Please do better!

So @BritBoxHelpUK closes on 30th April and I'm being told to move to @ITVX - it's just a shame that ITVX is a load of crap with a terrible layout, terrible reliability, and terrible overall user experience. I won't be renewing.

We’ll soon be able to announce an exciting Double Bill. Any guesses what it might be? 🤔
