I don't have any sleep tracking devices, but that hasn't stopped Google taking a guess in its weekly stats email

Just because Lewis Goodall says something doesn't mean you have to discuss it, in fact, it's usually the exact opposite

Excellent afternoon at the BFI, and rather than go for the IMAX screen, an epic of the small screen with a celebration of puppetry on TV. I am a sucker for puppets, this was excellent.

Announcing my new project, "The Great Flagship Documentary Myth?", where I seek to determine whether headline grabbing titles are a genuine intellectual exercise, or a cynical construct, exacerbated by commissioners actually being 12 cats in a suit

To every trans Londoner: this city is yours too. Today we celebrate London Trans+ Pride and reaffirm a simple truth: you should be free to live as yourself, without fear or prejudice. You are loved. You are wanted. You belong here.

My favourite job title in sports is Chef de Mission. Sure, it's less fun when you actually translate it, but I will continue to take it literally.

Wes Streeting as defence secretary

What, you think someone should lose their job just because they’ve refused to do it for over two years? None of you believe in second chances?

Okay but Lisa Nandy being reappointed is a very funny joke, now say who it is for real

King Charles told me the public keeps eating his prime ministers so l asked how many prime ministers he has and he said he just goes to the parliament and gets a new prime minister afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding prime ministers to the public and then his son started crying.

King Charles III is about to welcome the fourth Prime Minister of his reign, which is not yet four years old.

Lovely to see Bob the Cat getting a mention on the BBC credits

All worth it to hear Ian Wright say 'good to see Animal again' as if he's an old teammate of his

Scrap the Romesh thing just clip Wayne Rooney saying he thought the half time show was crap and the licence fee QR code

The cat food man has sung a song so it's time for some soccer baby!!!!!

After the killing of Ann Widdecombe, Count Binface is suddenly a lot less funny www.independent.co.uk/voices/count...

With the bald-cap-world-record-attempt in Hyde Park today, it's important to remember the collective noun for Pitbulls, which we coined in 2025

Surprisingly big year for DJ Otzi

The Sky News helicopter is currently following Andy Burnham's train all the way down to London. Unclear what exactly they expect to happen en route

"Update on plans for the future of Doctor Who" is a great headline for "there isn't one"

TikTok running ads for their teen safety features is very "When the Fun Stops Stops"

Reveals? Reveals? This is like saying picture book reveals sky is blue, doubts and infighting are what the party is about, this isn't new

Sam Campbell's new show Make That Movie is ridiculous. It's so weird. I love it. And it fits in so much into 24 minutes, brilliant.

You enjoy that ice cream lil' fella

I’m still amazed this obvious piece of cheating wasn’t discovered.

Little Waitrose to the tune of Little Donkey

Of all the many crimes against humanities that Vertical Video is responsible for, and it is hard to count, I think its worst aspect is that centered captions are off center because all of the overlaid bits of interface

Absolute highlight from the fancy dress cart race at the weekend was the team who dressed up as the dancers and made their cart the bottle
