An absolute thundering great berk.
Really enjoyed catching up with @marcusbrig.bsky.social last night at Norden Farm #Maidenhead for his #VituvianMango, just 29 years after I first saw him at Edinburgh Fringe - lots of laughs with reflections on what it is to be a man - and what a man, what a carer!
Back from a lovely evening seeing @marcusbrig.bsky.social perform at The Stand. An influence and a very funny man - and Museum of Everything remains one of my favourite radio comedies of all time. Enough crawling, time for bed!
Had the pleasure of seeing @marcusbrig.bsky.social last night at the Stand in Newcastle and what an excellent show it was. Highly recommend catching Vitruvian Mango if you can.
Alba’s back from its winter break! In today: cultural fun in Scotland for the week ahead, including @marcusbrig.bsky.social and Skipness Festival of Light. I chat with Dougie Donnelly, @chitgrrl.bsky.social gets indulgent at Vinette. In today’s Times Scotland and all on the main Times website.

People performatively mispronouncing Irish names is one of my pet paimhs
Since it's the last week of the year, here is an extra video clip for you from the most recent episode. Here is @marcusbrig.bsky.social discussing his love for, and devotion to, 'The Muppet Show'. #Comedy #Sketch #Character #Podcast #Conversations #TheMuppets
Managed to catch up with 3 episodes of my fave long-standing comedy show from #BBC #Radio4, very ably-hosted by #JackDee, that is #I’mSorryIHaven’tAClue… @rachelparris.bsky.social & @marcusbrig.bsky.social both in fine singing voice, as was @adrianedmondson.bsky.social & #MilesJupp too! More!!
Absolute scenes here at World Cheese Awards. Only half way through the final 14 top cheeses in the world & the UK already has THREE cheeses in the final 14!
A few more gems from The World Cheese Awards (and one absolute horror).

Well… The new White Lies record ‘Night Light’ is phenomenal. It’s up there with Big TV (which I love). Huge sound & excellent songs. Off to see them at Roundhouse in January. 😊
🎬 The arts aren’t a luxury - they’re an export. At #Lab25, @aiannucci.bsky.social reminds us that the UK’s Creative Industries make up 6% of our economy and 7% of our workforce - the GDP equivalent of oil + car industries combined. 🎥 Watch more clips from the Creative UK Pavilion hubs.ly/Q03QVhV90

I said what I said. Sorry not sorry. Facts don’t care about your facts.
My most popular cartoon by a long chalk is also oddly niche, in that it mostly appeals to a generation who remember the song it refers to and enjoy the nostalgia for their youth. I can draw one for you if you like. www.worldofmoose.com/collections/...
