@woodg31 Thank you, but it was the issue for week ending March 9 with Diana Rigg on the cover that had the page I was curious about

@prattabout And as for Valerie Barlow and if this isn’t judgment for setting herself up in her own front parlour as a so called hair stylist then my names not Ena Sharples it’s 3 clogs to a three’penny bit she’ll electrocute herself with her own hair dryer!

[John Kennedy OConnor @JohnKOConnor]

@prattabout That stuck up Ida Barlow who’s no better than she should be; it’ll not be too long before she falls under a bus.

@prattabout You never do think Minnie Caldwell so think on and look sharp. By the thump you take the barm cake. I keep my trap shut and my lug holes open unlike some I could mention. You can pick up some interesting conversations if you keep your hairnet jammed up against vestry wall.

#Eurovision #Wimbledon #Olympics #Elections #Democracy #MissWorld all cancelled in #2020 and yet, somehow, #MrsBrownsBoys & #ChildrenInNeed still survived & inflicted on long suffering Brits. There is no justice. Such a cruel world 🤢🎅🏼 #COVID19 #BBC #BBCChristmas #BBCXmas

@leojfor Who’ll die first!? Jimmy Carter who left the White House 40 years ago? The man who just became President? Or the man who just lost the Presidency? It’s a toss up! 😂🤣

@prattabout Be fair, Tiffany is there doing her research about Scandinavia for her UK ESC entry in 2021.

I noticed an intriguing credit in the Hammer House of Horror, so I watched it on YT. Turns out it’s that other #VictoriaWood Who knew?

The very under rated #Netlfix series #TheQueensGambit is very good stuff. Well worth seeking out.

[Fernando Augusto Pacheco @feap]

Wow, Brazilian Netflix series ‘Bom Dia, Verônica’ (Good Morning, Verônica) is excellent. It can be a difficult watch but worth seeing it. And also loving ‘The Undoing’ with Nicole Kidman.

The preparations happening here for #Election2020 . Shops, offices, cafes, bars all beginning to board themselves up just in case #Trump wins and the rioting starts. Meanwhile, I’m sure in Canton, OH, they’re doing the same in case #Biden wins... and they call it democracy

@BBCSteveR @wugwell09 @Eurovision @EBU_HQ @bbceurovision @BBCRadio2 That didn’t seem to stop Bonnie Tyler, Michael Rice, Jemini, Co-Co, Lynsey de Paul, Sally Ann Triplett, Carrie Gray, Kit Rolfe, Rikki Peebles, Samantha Janus blah blah blah ad nauseam...

@MikeParcej It ran for the whole 10 episodes, but the running time was cut & it was moved to a tea time spot. Brucie insisted it was a huge success to his dying day. Absolutely deluded.

[John Kennedy OConnor @JohnKOConnor]

@MikeParcej Cliff Morgan was head of outside broadcasts, not head of sport.
