So excited for Amandaland to hit screens today. A privilege to be involved in this new chapter of the MCU (Motherland Comedic Universe).

Huge thanks to Holly, Sharon, Barunka & Helen for welcoming me aboard the scribbling team.

BBC1 at 9pm or whenever you fancy on iPlayer.

You still have 24 hours (well, 26.54 hours) to vote for #BBCghosts in the #NationalTelevisionAwards. Obviously this will not take 26.54 hours, but you can spent the other 26.37 hours telling all of your friends to do the same. It's a brilliant plan. https://t.co/UZwDg72lxE

So delighted to be joined by Charlotte for this. Makes sense to be hosted by someone who can actually see us #ghosts #bbcghosts

In a cafe. Guy having a meeting in here has said ‘I’m business solutions’ three times, like it means something.

So excited to be invited to @ChalkeFestival to discuss comedy, history, dead people and the intersection of all three. So many great guests on the bill, ruined only by the very tiresome @benwillbond

[Chalke History Festival @ChalkeFestival]

For one evening only the festival gets spooky as The Captain & Robin/Humphrey swap Button House for Broad Chalke!

@benwillbond & @Lazbotron, take to the stage on Fri 28th June - all included in your day ticket! 👉https://t.co/OzFFIwjbmr

Look, I'm not going to tell you who to vote for. I mean, what do I know? I'm basically a collection of hair wrapped around an old shoe. But if you wanted to vote in the NTA's , there's probably a comedy that has brought you 5 years of unbridled joy (tears) https://t.co/XwWpUheDFQ

Exciting news for Motherland fans!

So delighted to learn that ‘Ghosts: The Button House Archives’ has been nominated for a British Book Award, and amidst such cracking company. Congrats to the whole team, not least the fine folk at @BloomsburyBooks #GhostsBBC #ghosts https://t.co/Ic0u7biC0w

@NigelWilliams99 Well this is very exciting. All power to your excellent elbow - both elbows in fact x

[Laurence Rickard @Lazbotron]

Somehow, despite the consummate professionalism of all involved, some apparent ‘bloopers’ from #BBCGhosts Series 5 have surfaced. Must be AI or something. https://t.co/ktRAG6hDD9
