@bbctms @BBCiPlayer @bbctms I mean, if you put the highlights on at a time when kids can't watch it at least make it possible for them to see it when they are awake.

@bbctms @BBCiPlayer Shame an 11 year old is blocked from watching it on their iPlayer account. Was there really that much Aussie swearing on the stump mic?

That Autocorrect again...

@buleste @PaulbernalUK Did Rembrandt look like a musician? Of course she didn't.

@Fromematt @anthonyohead (the lamp in your photo isn't a PAR 38, it's just a reflector spot of whatever wattage. Anything with a screw base and it's own reflector will do. Go lower wattage for domestic or eye candy use)

[Rob Sayer @OnStageLighting]

@Fromematt @anthonyohead PAR 38 is the form, E27 base. Be aware that it's harder to get filament versions of many lamp types and LED equivalents are not always dimmable.

@rsmck @Chris_Ashworth Agreed. Everything is just physics until we superimpose firmware or completely change the primary method. The case of two faces in one frame is of interest. As you know, there is little hope for the black Labrador against a dark background. Or a light one, tbh.

[Rob Sayer @OnStageLighting]

@rsmck @Chris_Ashworth Basic autofocus systems aren't particularly high-tech. My guess is that ones that use facial recognition first would perform better. But the algo still needs setting up well.

[Rob Sayer @OnStageLighting]

@Chris_Ashworth Any system that relies primarily on reflected light is biased to that which it depends on to work. Would be interested to learn how this might be algorithmically overcome.

@john_rainsforth Don't deny us your Widow Twanky.

RIP Barry Dyer, I mean Danny Dyer. No, not him. erm. Wothisname. Danny La Rue, that's what I'm saying. Bloody Barry Crier for heaven's sake. I really do.

Is there such a thing as Uber Guillotines? Asking for a nation.

@thestevestubbs And your 'safe place' is on the street, in full view of the neighbours.

@TomLightbodyLX @kellizezulka @ld122 @AlexiadouS @MigWalsh @the_ALPD There is Capture for Lighting Design which is obviously product specific.

[Rob Sayer @OnStageLighting]

@andylampy Good work. 69p and still fine. :-)

[Rob Sayer @OnStageLighting]

@ninjalampie Now ... What did I come upstairs for?

[Rob Sayer @OnStageLighting]

@kellizezulka The only person who is going to tell you to do less is yourself. :-)

[Rob Sayer @OnStageLighting]

@MarkW_E Do I need to go out and stock up on flags now?

[Rob Sayer @OnStageLighting]

@kjbkjb 8/2/1/ and an egg plus milk but recently been making double.
