@MDut21 The programme was so much richer when the cast members popped up in the pub, shop etc. for everyday interactions Every scene now seems so dislocated from village life.
@SeasideChris Brilliant! The globe was the older model and my mother was a devotee to both. They would glide around the room after her and gently bump off the furniture (note the rubber bumpers attached for this purpose)

@kmfmnews@Jim4Dartford while they might have identified the risk of water failure the mitigation is obviously inadequate. What if this had been a power failure? Do they test their disaster recovery plans and does the regulator have input/oversight of the adequacy of the plan and testing?
@Jebadoo2 I wrote to my MP when it was at the Commons stage and she said not to worry it will be dealt with by the Lords intimating that the Commons were trusting the Lords to scrutinise the Bill more closely. Thank peers took their role seriously and proved an effective fail safe.

“I find it really hard to put into words the impact that the language of dignity and compassion being used to talk about ending life has had on me—as if somehow wishing to carry on but with help is undignified and burdensome, unfair to people who love me…
“My blood runs cold thinking about sitting in a room in a hospital and having a doctor raise that with me as we weigh up treatment options…
“If it weighs so heavily on me, someone in a position of financial privilege, with a large loving family who are able to care for each other—indeed, someone whose job it’s been for 10 years to have difficult conversations… I want colleagues to see how this all plays out for people who don’t have the privilege that we have.
“And in doing so, let’s have our eyes open to the strain our health and social care systems are under.”
"The joke was distasteful and unfortunate...Now I have to sit in front of you...and explain someone else's behavior. It's not my responsibility."
