Naturally (somewhat) cynical. Deal with it.

@vampettexx @NBCSuperstore @nbc ITV2 will get it first; they have first-run rights since they began UK-premiering it in 2018. They began s3 repeats in its usual 8/8:30pm slot this week; based on that (two eps every weeknight) S6 should start mid-March, if it immediately follows on from s3-5 repeat runthrough.

This Government had Downing Street lit up green for Grenfell and now has its Union Flag at half mast for the passing of a man who exposed its underfunding of the NHS. It is without shame.

[James B - The DIP Podcast @thedippodcast]

All these can be true at the same time:

1 - Wishing Captain Tom a speedy recovery
2 - Saying he shouldn't have gone Barbados for Xmas
3 - Acknowledging that the NHS shouldn't have to rely on a 100 year old to do laps of their garden for funding

What our kids' home learning problems are showing is that school is a sticking plaster for poverty. Too many of our young people don't have the home resources and support to learn. Many don't even have reliable meals. This is the scandal underneath the Covid crisis.

If you have enabled of Trump for 4 years,
if you continued supporting him after Charlottesville,
quitting now, with 13 days to go, is not going to wash the stench of complicity off of you.

this is the "fa" we were "anti", by the way

[Niles Francis @NilesGApol]

Hillary was right. These people are deplorables.

[Niles Francis @NilesGApol]

So @SenatorCollins has he "learned his lesson" yet?

@PolyglotPaul @EuropeElects There was this one just after he became Tory leader and PM.

Gavin Williamson writing in DT “Increasing the A Level grades will mean a whole generation could end up promoted beyond their abilities". Presumably from personal experience

[Otto English @Otto_English]

Good luck to everyone expecting A level results today and remember Nigel Farage didn't get any at all, and yet he managed to go on to wreck an entire country.

This is the second time they've featured #CasinoRoyale on Gogglebox. The first time was on the civilian version, and I remember Sandi and Sandra remarking on that scene of him trying to defibrillate himself. First time they've done the same show/film twice? #CelebrityGogglebox

[Phinbart @Phinbart]

@OliReading Yes, she did. We then had a succession of different assistants that were usually fired during the episode they first appeared in - including the EU interview guy tonight in a different role. #MyFamily

[Dino Vincenzo Cassano @Dino_whatwhere]

Let me get this straight the under 18s and over 60s are not going to get free travel as punishment for obeying the government for staying indoors? And an increase congestion charge .... to bail out TFL like it was our fault all this because they were focused on Brexit and not

[Phinbart @Phinbart]

@J_Long86 I have had a feeling ever since I watched the second ep of S1 for the first time (on demand) that it was originally the pilot; the camerawork, tone and mannerisms (especially Jim's) starkly different from the series proper, and the writing was quite weak too. #FridayNightDinner

[Phinbart @Phinbart]

Jim in charge of puppies? Someone phone the RSPCA! #FridayNightDinner

[Ireland Simpsons Fans @iresimpsonsfans]

Meanwhile, in Dear Old Blighty

[Phinbart @Phinbart]

#FridayNightDinner felt back to its best tonight. Just a shame it took until episode 5 to get back into the swing of things.

[Phinbart @Phinbart]

@iPoof He ended up signing the garage over in the end. It was kinda blink-and-you-miss it, and the storyline hasn't been revisited since.
