This is just delightful. But you have to watch it to the end.

I don't tend to post much on X these days, but I thought I would let my UK followers know that I have a new TV offering: a 2-part Horizon special on BBC2 going out on 29th Sep and 6th October. It is called Secrets of the Brain. See https://t.co/myZwienlHw

The ‘Trout’ Quintet has been part of my life since childhood, from when my siblings and I would listen to it on car journeys to swimming lessons. Over time it has become a piece that continues to grow with me, holding meaning in different moments of life. (1/2)

100s of MEPs & ex-MEPs across the EU will be thinking of Le Pen verdict tonight: "There but the grace of God...". Any half-decent political journalist knows parties across the EU, including UK, have been misuing Euro Parlt money for decades for domestic party purposes.

The C of E may have its troubles at the top, but at the sharp end things seem to be thriving. The church I went to this morning was standing-room only, and everyone belted out the hymns and carols with gusto. Friends tell me the same from their Christmas services.

I was looking forward to interviewing Boris Johnson at Cheltenham, but regrettably I can’t go ahead with the event because I am not allowed make an audio recording or transcript of the interview.

As a journalist in conversation with a former PM at a public event, I can only proceed if we do it on the record. I’m sorry to have to pull out.

Moving pavements in Paris in 1900. The ‘Trottoir Roulant’, an engineering wonder which consisted of two moving pavements that ran in parallel at 4.5 and 8.5 kph. You could change tracks by holding onto one of the poles. A single rate of 50 centimes per ride.

The red squirrel population on Anglesey increased from 40 to 800! They even crossed the Menai Strait and colonised Gwynedd. Will you be visiting Anglesey this autumn with the hope of seeing one? Please tag us in your photos, we never get bored of seeing these amazing little guys!

It used to be one of joys of art that you could pop into a museum and see great things. But these self-styled vigilantes are making it ever harder. More security. Longer queues. Nervier moods. Poor van Gogh did nothing to deserve this abuse.

[Keith Burge @carryonkeith]

Now Starmer's gone too far; he's removed Liz Truss' portrait.

[Angie Hobbs @drangiehobbs]

I am not naïve and certainly do not think @UKLabour will be spotless, but I really hope that we will soon be free from this daily torrent of brazen @Conservatives lies. So much damage to U.K. in the last 14 years, but the normalisation of lying is in my view the most destructive

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

I argue it is feed filthy racist lies to the fools rather than fascinate.

[John Evans @evansjohnd]

@susb60 Agreed!

[Robert Peston @Peston]

So much of this election campaign is extraordinary. But that word does not quite capture the Tory campaign director Tony Lee taking emergency leave of absence mid-campaign because he and his wife, a Tory candidate, are being investigated by the Gambling Commission over a bet on the election date. If I had put that in one of the political thrillers wot I write I would have cut it out because it would have seemed just too mad to be true

[WALDEMAR JANUSZCZAK @JANUSZCZAK]

I see the self-appointed abusers of art and achievement - the art vigilantes - are at it again. Their predecessors smashed statues, slashed paintings and lynched people. It’s a cult thing. You believe you have the right to do anything you want - because ‘right’ is on your side.

Parade your concern for the planet by destroying endangered lichens.

[Will Hutton @williamnhutton]

The Labour manifesto in its unassuming , unsung but purposeful way is as radical and potentially more enduringly transformative than Labour’s in 1945. Everyone under-rated Attlee, his ambition and capacity to bring it off. They are doing the same with Starmer.

Well well well 😅😂
