Specifically, we've recently added a playlist for #MarcoWeek but feedback so far is that our playlists are inaccessible from within US regions... Which would be a bit of a bugger for something we had pencilled in for later in the year ๐ฌ
Here's a catch-up thread ๐งต of Days 1-5 of last week's #MarcoWeek content if you missed it...

Bring back (the) hanging (scene)!
Imagine if the gallows scene had not been cut and the BBC had banned it!
They probably would have cut back to the studio for the farewell and credits roll.
No YT back then to view it in all its glory!
Happy Birthday Marco!!!
