Dad, husband, was once the answer to a question on Countdown as one of the last two journalists on Fleet Street. Now hang around in the background of films.

@5liveSport @Iandennisbbc @GKPaulRobinson @Steve_Crossman"David" Banner replaced 'Bruce" Banner as the name of the protagonist in the 1978 TV series of The Incredible Hulk because CBS executives thought "Bruce" sounded "too gay". Apologies to @alibruceball

@benburrell ... but I have stepped out in my Arsenal Women's shirt for the 1st time in public on a non-matchday. To explain, I don't support Arsenal men & attend their women's games with my 9yo daughter. Never felt right wearing their shirt but today I am so proud of them.

@bushontheradio I am taking my five-year-old to her first Arsenal Women away game @ Leicester on Sunday. If you knew my demonic daughter you'd realise how scary the prospect of a 2½ hour car journey with her is.

[Darryl Smith @DJSmith1973]

@bushontheradio 2/2 I thought we'd got away with scarring her for life but two days after we were passing the museum while on a walk along the seafront and she stopped and pointed at it and said in a croaky voice 'Death'!

[Darryl Smith @DJSmith1973]

@bushontheradio My wife chose True Crime museum as her 'day out' while on hols in Hastings, seemingly blissfully unaware we have a 3yo child.
After playing 'guess the most lethal poison' with her I tried to shield her from the rest of the museum while my wife enjoyed herself 1/2

@c_ducourtieux Hi. Is there anywhere in London I can get a copy of Le Monde?

@s0ph1eeeee Can you follow me so I can DM you 🙂

[Darryl Smith @DJSmith1973]

@saundersmylord @5liveSport Apart from the 20 minute interview with the Wolves manager in the first hour. But, sure. don't let the facts get in the way of your agenda.

[Darryl Smith @DJSmith1973]

As an Arsenal fan I have massive respect for @emmahayes1, the job she has done @ Chelsea as well as the issues she highlights in the women's game. I'm also delighted she's leaving them & hope Chelsea make a real pig's ear of appointing her replacement. #WSL #EmmaHayes @BBCSport

[Darryl Smith @DJSmith1973]

@SheKicksdotnet We should enjoy every day of her remaining contract.

This pic still haunts me. Hardly ever bother famous peeps but met @AshtonJEaton @ Great Wall night after he broke decathlon WR & asked attractive blonde with him to take a photo of us. As she handed me back my phone I remembered who he was married to. So sorry @btheiseneaton

Not sure Boris saying there's a plot to reverse Brexit is going to swing support his way. Polls consistently show two thirds of British public think Brexit was a mistake. So majority will be hoping there really is a plot & it's not just another Boris lie #Tories #Dorries #Johnson

I may be an Arsenal Women fan but I'm made up for Tottenham's Beth England. Made a brave move from Chelsea & was excellent every time I saw her (in an underperforming team). Also glad for Katie Zelem who always impresses me for Man Utd. #Lionesses

@AnnoDracula Always enjoyed chatting with Alan at screenings. His personal views on the film he'd just witnessed and then what he'd write about it in his review for the Daily Star's readership didn't always align 😂

[Darryl Smith @DJSmith1973]

@lottewubbenmoy I want to be honest with you & say I appreciate you more as a decent human being than I usually do a footballer but that's made me want to reach out to say you didn't deserve that ending tonight. You were outstanding. #Arsenal #ARSWOB #UWCL

[Darryl Smith @DJSmith1973]

@nettyjane5 I've searched all day but it's a fools errand. Arsenal took two and a half weeks to tell us Kim Little won't be seen again this season. Jonas will probably put her in the squad for Sunday just to keep Wolfsburg guessing.

[Darryl Smith @DJSmith1973]

@VickerstaffT 12 months ago I would have said "Leah who?" and "get over yourself." Now it feels like my whole world is collapsing. I guess you can take that as progress for the women's game.
