Almost cheered on the bus. Go Lynda Snell - and bugger off, Diane #TheArchers

Liverpool resident. Lives with a Welshman. Dad to a dead naughty cat. Works for the Beeb. Loves Eurovision and going the gym. My waistline is a constant work in progress.
Enjoying the Caves of Androzani audiobook read by Peter Davison. Mainly for his impression of Peri.
People who don’t know the difference between ‘entomology’ and ‘etymology’ bug us in ways we cannot put into words.
Can’t believe they’re making a sequel to Fall. Surely she’d think twice about going somewhere high up again.
Anyone seen an Apple TV show called The Changeling? Apparently, Labi Siffre’s superb (with a capital SUPE) entry to Song For Europe 1978 is on the soundtrack.

Smashing to have #TedLasso back. Like getting in a toasty warm bath.
Nicked the skin just below my nostril while shaving. Look like I’ve been in the tamest fight ever.
That had to be one of the most depressing episodes of #Corrie ever. Could one of the characters mistakenly buy monogrammed carpet from a bingo hall or something? Anything to lighten the mood.
Anyone from #Manchester on here? Are the trams towards MediaCity and the Trafford Centre definitely back running tomorrow? The maintenance works haven’t over-run? Ta for any info ✌️
Listened to a podcast today which left me relieved I wasn’t the only person who thought all of Center Parcs was under a big dome like the Eden Project.
Lilian from #TheArchers turned up in a 1983 episode of Brookside we were watching as a stern policewoman. No gin giggle, but there was definite Lil in her voice.
No! Not Farrison! (It’s since he started fancying undertakers) #TheArchers
Just started on The Hairdresser Mysteries and hoping it goes some way to plug the Doctors-sized hole that still gapes in our daytime lives.
Not saying I will kiss the first MediaCity tram I see when they’re back running again, but I ‘m keeping a lipsalve handy.
There are no trams to MediaCity. Getting the bus through Manchester is always a magical mystery tour for a Liverpudlian.
Still watching old Brookie. It’s strangely comforting. Roger has gone for a pint in the Phil.
Harrison has returned from Weatherfield but he doesn’t seem to have any lasting remnants of evil #TheArchers
It’s our AGM at Constipation Club tonight. Sadly, I can't go.
Dear @itvx.com - we have seen the first 13 episodes of Russell T Davies’ marvellously high-camp mid-90s ecclesiastical soap Revelations on YouTube but can’t find the rest - any chance of streaming the whole lot?
Rest well, Patricia Greene. The gran with the naughtiest twinkle in her voice, even when she was being very sensible #TheArchers #JillArcher
I’ve been enjoying the first episodes of Brookside that’s on one of the streaming channels. It’s New Year’s Eve 1982 and Bobby and Sheila are having a do round their house. Paul Collins is wearing a dickie and has introduced his sulky daughter Lucy to sulky Karen.
