We say goodbye to formidable comedic legend Catherine O'Hara.

A genius of improv and physical comedy, her bold choices made us laugh until we cried in a career that spanned over five decades.

Our thoughts are with her family and friends.

Today is Holocaust Memorial Day, marking over 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau. We remember the 6 million Jewish men, women and children murdered by the Nazis and their collaborators. As survivors grow fewer and antisemitism rises, today is more vital than ever.

Went to a fascinating meeting on Small modular reactors yesterday in a very busy day in Westminster (thank you old 1980 team mate Lord Moynihan for not letting me get lost!). We were handed one of these as we left. Take a little read of the can!

Just got back from seeing #MartySupreme
I expected greatness from Timothee Chalomet.
That said.... @kevinolearytv was pretty damned good too.

[Dolby @Dolby]

I want to celebrate the bravery of thousands of people who are engaging in protest against the oppressive regime in Iran. I remember vividly when the Ayatollah Khomeini was swept to power some forty-six years ago, and I have witnessed the steady and vicious attacks on human dignity perpetrated by the corrupt theocracy he established. Moreover, I’ve watched as the Iranian kleptocracy has systematically de-stabilized the Middle East by fostering Hamas, Hezbollah and other terrorist organizations. Please God that this dishonorable government, which has been a source of so much mischief and suffering these past several decades, will find its way to the trash-heap of history.

The government won’t allow advertisements for cigarettes and you can barely promote alcohol. Why the hell can I not watch five minutes of a sports event without being inundated with gambling ads. This is killing our society. Destroying young men. Time to reframe this.

People who don't think phones/social media are having a deleterious effect on developing brains -- what's the alternative explanation for this? Did every country put lead in the water at the same time?

[Mick Jagger @MickJagger]

Tom Stoppard was my favourite playwright. He leaves us with a majestic body of intellectual and amusing work. I will always miss him.

[Stephen Tobias @DirectorSteve]

RIP Tom Stoppard. One of the greatest modern playwrights.

[Faber Books @FaberBooks]

We are profoundly sad to learn of the death of our dear friend Tom Stoppard, one of the most brilliant and feted playwrights of the last sixty years and one of the great intellects of our time. Tom has been at the heart of Faber Drama since his first play, the dazzling Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead. He will be missed beyond measure.

"Has culture in the 21st century become samey and dull?"
Interesting article. I'm ordering the book discussed here. Should make for an interesting...possibly frustrating...read.

[The Economist @TheEconomist]

Endless recycling of stale ideas does indeed betray timidity. But the fact that old masterpieces are freely enjoyed is a glory of modern culture, not a glitch https://t.co/2TJI6fDWSW

Finding a great read is one of the spin-off benefits of taking time to recover from surgery.
Thank you @profgalloway for this. I will now give it to my sons and encourage them to read it as well.

[Stephen Tobias @DirectorSteve]

While recuperating from surgery, I've been doing a pile of reading. Mostly scripts...and also a few shorter novels.
None more powerful than this.
Thanks @johnboyne for the
deeply moving story.

@PreislerKa Danke Schön

the ending of THE GODFATHER, the best american movie ever made, doesn't work without diane keaton's final look --- at the realization of who she's married and what her life is going to become and what corruption lurks behind closed doors. unforgettable, inimitable work. RIP.

[Stephen Tobias @DirectorSteve]

So sorry to hear this.
