We were very sorry to read of the death of Bill Oddie, who was a magnificent Red Jasper in Doctor Who and the Pirates, recorded in 2003. Our condolences to his family and friends.
I also mourn the passing of Bill Oddie whom I worked with on several occasions He was funny talented and an original Yes he could be grumpy. A characteristic I am proud to share with him. Along with his passion for wildlife. We will all miss him.
I’m looking forward to seeing everyone at Plymouth Comicon and Gaming Festival at Plymouth Life Centre tomorrow for UKCGF Come and say Hello
Happy Birthday to the delightful wise and witty Lalla Ward!! 🥂
Every pride month at least one person sends me this cartoon of @oldsixie.bsky.social at Pride. This year it was @thasceles.bsky.social. Always makes me smile. (credit in link)
The bird shooting industry hates us right now. Which is good. It means we're doing something right. They hate the fact their industry is being exposed to millions of people.

I didn’t know I had an Amazon music subscription as I have never used it, but I’ve just had to cancel it because I didn’t know I had it but I can’t find any way of telling Amazon that I have been paying for a subscription without knowing it and never using it.
GB News is trying to gut the BBC. Their radical plan would force shows like Strictly and The Traitors to be axed or hidden behind a Netflix-style paywall. Sign the petition to say NO to a BBC subscription model:
If you get shot in the arc, it’s best if you do it to yourself!!!
So sorry to learn that we have lost Michael Keating. A lovely man and effortlessly real actor. I think even Bayban the Butcher would mourn his passing As do I
McDonald and Dodds is such a good programme and I am astonished it was cancelled- currently being rerun on ITV 3 Lovely stuff!

Please, please everyone humour me The word aitch does not begin with the letter it represents any more than m is mem or n is nen H is AITCH and when I hear government ministers talking about the HAITCH ESS 2 railway project. I realise the time has come to speak out. To shout out in fact.
Looking forward to seeing you all at London Comic Con Spring this weekend #LCCSpring and #ShowmastersEvents Have your photo taken with me and Brian Blessed if you dare!
I wonder why the only names being pursued in the media in the Epstein abuse saga are British? And the only person imprisoned is also female…
Much though I have enjoyed all of my many trips to the USA over forty or so years I have realised that I cannot go there any more until there is what we might call ‘regime change’ Like Iran they are killing their own citizens. Tragic
Interesting to see Inspector Morse - House of Ghosts by Alma Cullen is touring again. It was on in Oxford this week 16 years after I played that part in it at the same theatre. Good play - well worth a revival.
