Weather forecast and carrot cake aficionado. East Belfast blow in. BBC Archive Content & Partnerships. No thoughts my own.

What can one do when one wants to tell people about stuff but everybody has left?

One of the best things about working with the treasure that is the BBC Archive is getting to try out new ideas. We've got this opportunity live at the minute and we are looking for the boldest ideas out there! https://t.co/t0Bnf9ToZI

This. Honestly some of the most powerful audio you'll hear. Devastating. @newyorker

We lost a fellow Highwayman today.
Godspeed, Kris.

Across the Universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Perhaps I may become a songwriter again..."

Was telling somebody about this and had to re-watch. Still sends shivers... @pablomcc

Are you an emerging documentary filmmaker who loves archive film? The Make Film History Challenge offers you access to 40 archive films for creative reuse. Make a short film (up to 3 mins) which reinterprets the archive in new and imaginative ways!

I love @boojummex but I can't live with the guilt around the plastic containers for the Burrito Bowls. How many thousands are binned by Boojum lovers each week? @boojummex surely there is a sustainable option, even if a bit more expensive? I'd happily pay more!

@smeeho7 Oh no! Devastating. Same... Loved that song, that album.

[Dr Helen Toland (she/her) @HelenToland]

They've done it again. Thanks to @IndiaRakusen and @elliesans for Child on @BBCSounds. Loved 28ish Days Later and this is a follow up of sorts. Dunno which part of me is loving this most - the scientist, the human, the mother, the audiophile... 🎧❤️🔬👩‍🔬

Thanks to John from Tools for Solidarity for sharpening my gardening gear @repaircafebfast this morning. And for the lesson in how to do it myself. Full of joy at new skills and new life in these old tools.

[Dr Helen Toland (she/her) @HelenToland]

@smeeho7 Nice! Didn't even know that was up there. 👍

Irish film fans, the strange and wonderful 'Eat the Peach' is currently and surprisingly on the iPlayer.

Every tribute talks of his kindness, his decency, his mischief. A life well lived. Lovely to see this clip from the Archive. RIP Walter.

[BBC Archive @BBCArchive]

Walter Love, the much loved BBC Northern Ireland broadcaster with an incredible career spanning eight decades, has died at the age of 88. In 1982, he reflected upon the history of broadcasting (including his own career) and the power of nostalgia.

This. My kids bring it to me periodically to read 'just to see if you will still cry".
