@AvantiWestCoast Hi, I’m on the 16:21 train from Birmingham New Street. The train is full. There’s been no announcements telling us what’s happening - please can you tell us if the train is going to leave soon or if it’s cancelled?

Can someone ask Pep if he fancies being Green Party candidate for Manchester Mayor? Since he’s not got much on now….

unfortunately I know I will be telling things from an internal Gollum perspective from now on, it’s in the lexicon

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

Peter Jackson says ‘THE HUNT FOR GOLLUM’ movie was inspired by ‘JOKER’.

“The way that explored the Joker’s psychology while it was telling a story. We’ve got the story that’s in the appendices but we’ll tell it from an internal Gollum perspective.”

The UK public celebrates a genuine national treasure on his centenary, which coincides with a landslide of council votes for a political party that rejects net zero, wants to defund the institutions that Attenborough's life has enriched, and doesn't care about nature. Go figure.

[Thomas Gorton @AngstromHoot]

Attenborough has no respect for crabs. Always gives them ridiculous music. They are jesters to him
