Euro 96 started 30 years ago tomorrow.
One of my favourite summers ever.
The opening titles on the BBC and ITV always played a huge part in giving a tournament its own character and helping to create memories that last a lifetime.
Here they are back-to-back, with the BBC first…
Fortunately, Britain has a Bermuda-registered mass circulation newspaper owned by a French-domiciled billionaire, a television station owned by a Dubai hedge fund and a political party backed by a Thailand-based crypto tycoon to remind us of the importance of patriotism
@StanCollymore Tremendous work makes such a difference to those receiving the calls @AndySintonQPR does the same for @QPR supporters a true gentleman and great club ambassador.
@atmoio@DaveShapi I get the skit nature of what you’re doing, but there’s often a true word said in jest. I think you both add great value to the discussion even if you have very different takes. I’ve followed Dave for years, he’s been my AI sherpa through a lot of this stuff.
@DaveShapi@atmoio initially as a counterbalance to the prevailing feeling around AI that I’d probably got caught up in myself... has real working knowledge of frontline impacts and had clearly been on an interesting journey with it all which I found compelling even when if didn’t fully agree.
@DaveShapi@atmoio Fair enough - I still enjoy seeing thoughtful people with different viewpoints engage honestly though feels like we’re watching the collective understanding of AI shift and those converations are part of that.
@DaveShapi@atmoio Thanks for the response @DaveShapi it would be great to hear you two in conversation about where we are all heading. It’s really interesting to see the shifting sentiment/narrative on Ai playing out in real time.
I had a discussion yesterday with somebody about Father Ted and we ended up trying to choose, at first, our top 5 moments, which became 10, and then 20.
Anyway, here's what I believe was my #4, featuring Ted, Dougal and "Your man from One Foot in the Grave. The, I don't believe it, man".
Enjoy the sunshine 🌞
