As we all know, Parky was from Yorkshire, as was David Bowie's dad.

This is a corker 👊

This is absolutely gorgeous.
(Although a little confusing for me, given that I’m obviously going for the Australian women’s team which is called - ahem - The Matildas. 🤪)

LIVE FROM THE PACIFIC OCEAN! 🌏 🌊

Barely a dot in the endless blue expanse, our safety yacht came across a group of resilient adventurers - our only team of Five, the Flyin' Fish! 🐟 They currently have 829NM to go until they hit the finish line!

*IMPORTANT NOTICE*

Unfortunately the cheeky blackbirds who live at Cotehele, have jumped the queue and eaten ALL of the cherries in the orchard so Pick Your Own Cherries has been cancelled.

We (not the blackbirds) are sorry for any disappointment caused.

Presenters, producers and reporters are out on strike at proposals to slash BBC Local Radio shows.

The BBC says the plans ‘provide a better service’.

But MPs, councillors, charities, industry figures, unions and hundreds of staff members disagree.
