Cinema in St Ives. Screen looks bigger than it actually is here and, of course, the projected image didn't fill it. As a bonus, they had the world's loudest electric heater plugged in at the front, whirring away all through Civil War.

I love when people post bad theaters because I will absolutely win every time

@AmonWarmann Ehem…

@bwpachinger It is!

@JoeBarton_ I just bought a 4k steelbook, please under no circumstances send Will Sharpe to my house to take it away. I would hate that.

[Patrick Monger @patmonger]

@mrsimonsmith Ah, missed that detail!

[Patrick Monger @patmonger]

@mrsimonsmith what are the chances you’re a Nick Cave fan?

[Patrick Monger @patmonger]

@ChrisHewitt Can you broaden the recent question about actors who have played heroes and villains to who's portrayed the starkest contrast between 'good' and 'evil'? My vote would be (Sir) Ben Kingley with Gandhi and Don Logan (Sexy Beast)

[Patrick Monger @patmonger]

Hi @boydhilton @kayribeiro, if Mountainhead does count as TV (/"the TV event of the year", as the listener you agreed with dubbed it), please can you explain this to Sky/NOW, who have it locked behind their Cinema subscription and not available under their TV pass? CC @jamescdyer

@BenSTravis @darren_scott Maybe it was a typo written on accident

Which is the one talking here?

[Ashley St. Clair @stclairashley]

“I will protect you little one”

Why is this a thing? This place is a toilet

[Mila Joy @Milajoy]

I just watched a man carry a screaming toddler across the parking lot.

He noticed me looking at him and said, "He's mine, I'm not stealing him."

And then, before I could reply, he added, "If I was gonna take one, it definitely wouldn't be this one".

LOL.

[Patrick Monger @patmonger]

@mrsimonsmith Incredible, congratulations!

[Patrick Monger @patmonger]

Now watching, with the one who refused to see it on the big screen

[Patrick Monger @patmonger]

@HelenLOHara I just scrolled your QTs after seeing a bonkers response - don’t know how you manage it. Also didn’t realise the show had picked up this level of vapid backlash.

[Patrick Monger @patmonger]

@Cakes_Comics For the briefest moment I thought you'd included the chest-burster from Space Balls

[Patrick Monger @patmonger]

@clarisselou I fear I’d be doing the same if I was there, in the same way I fear I would walk up to and lean over hatching eggs on an alien planet.

[Patrick Monger @patmonger]

@clarisselou This also applies to me watching Bear Grylls’ the Island, judging all the idiots drinking stagnant lake water and getting ill, then drinking more water to make themselves feel better.

[Patrick Monger @patmonger]

This is my commute. 1hr20mins each way, before inevitable delays, no way of doing anything worthwhile. For the price you pay - infuriating.

[Peter Foster @pmdfoster]

No plugs. No tables and, most of time, no WiFi.

This is a Thameslink train. It serves as main link between London and Brighton/Cambridge. Prime commuter line. 000s of wasted hours.

It’s like the UK is *built* for low-productivity. The worst kind of penny-pinching procurement.
