Whilst I think the Lords plays a valuable role, despite needing reform, I think it’s time we got rid of these back-slapping, self-congratulatory official gongs designed to further inflate egos which need no more inflating. https://t.co/KoaIPnNI7k
Idea - Xmas film, ‘Santa’s Clause’. Dir. Ken Loach, Nigel the elf is a hard-pressed shop steward in St Nick’s workshop. When he loses his hand whilst making a wooden toy, he’s told there’s no compensation as he wasn’t wearing the right PPE. Courtroom battle ensues, a bleak ending
@franticplanet cannot wait for you to write on Russ’ sophomore classic album, 1990’s ‘Songs of Joy’. Was surprised he never got a VH1 special. I feel @dank_ackroyd and @buntyhoven are fans. Here’s my favourite cut, a homage to the biggest star of the age… https://t.co/hvJdSXoUt7
@franticplanet He so doesn’t want to be there, you get the impression, when they cut to Lionel and Una and their rictus grins, that they made a terrible mistake. Aspel always looks like he’s going to curl up his fist and lamp someone!
@franticplanet this needs some love in conjunction with your brilliant ‘This Is Your Life’ video. It’s THE meta episode and I defy you to find me another one with so many celebs from 1980, the only one missing is Fred Dinenage https://t.co/6Orz6OkECh
The amount of buses now terminating mid route is ludicrous. This has happened to me five times in the past week on 207 and 306 routes. @TfL can you explain why this has become so frequent?
@franticplanet two legends of high fashion, an interview on the scale of Frost/Nixon. Accents sadly being lost to the mists of time… https://t.co/YZMTkVEdsq
This is vintage @franticplanet, up there with the Miss Anglia 1980, We need to talk about Keith and Copy Cats videos. I think it would be right up @dank_ackroyd, @MrPLitchfield @ItsJohnRain and @TNeenan’s streets! Thanks Stu!
Now available for all, my new video ventures underground into the real-life Jabba's Palace; where dancing girls and severed heads watched stand-ups die 1,000 deaths. Brace yourselves, for Craig Charles's Funky Bunker.

More people could get on rush hour trains if blissfully unaware, massive headphone wearing wankshafts would take off their backpacks and place them at their feet 🤬
@hwallop@AldiUK It’s weird, as if they’re actively promoting consumer waste with these painful novelties, which people buy as a gimmick and probably leave to rot in the fridge drawer after the first sorrowful bite…
Tales of two halves last night, started watching ‘One from the heart’… dreadful, badly written, poor acting. Switched off after 30 mins. Then I watched ‘Nighthawks’, a terrific thriller and one of Stallone’s best performances. What a great film, we’ll worth checking out.
@ItsJohnRain Remember getting it on VHS for my 10th birthday and being really excited that it was a 15. Found it really dull then, watched it a month or so ago and loved it. Definitely one for the maturer viewer. Still not in the pantheon with FYEO though @MrPLitchfield
