Very sad to hear of the death of actress Sheila Bernette, aged 94. A wonderful TV performer and so closely linked with @playerstheatre Rest in peace, Sheila — thank you.
This year marks the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, and I’m delighted to be contributing to BBC Radio Wales’ All Things Considered this Sunday at 9 a.m. I’ll be exploring the surprising meeting point between quantum science and mysticism. @QuantumYear2025
Sad to hear of the passing of Dame Patricia Routledge. Such a wonderful actor. In this clip she plays a song from The Boy Friend — a lovely connection, as the musical first premiered at the Players’ Theatre back in 1953. @playerstheatre

Yesterday, we came together to honour the life and work of Dwight L. Moody and Ira D. Sankey, reliving the spirit of revival with a wonderful reenactment. From powerful hymns to joyful praise, the church was alive with the timeless message of the gospel.

Thoughts on what can stir the emotions through sound.
@JonMajerowski John Mason’s hymn speaks of God as “a sea without a shore, a sun without a sphere,” emphasizing the boundlessness of His creation. We shouldn’t be surprised to discover that life exists elsewhere, revealing yet another dimension of God’s infinite majesty.
