I think the cogs turn in Lucy's brain when she pulls a door marked "push".

I said last year that the production team are legends: the lighting, camerawork, soundtrack, editing, design... All pretty much perfection.

I'm a grown up. I shouldn't find Celia Imrie farting in an enclosed cabin remotely funny.

And yet, here I sit giggling like an idiot.

Jonathan Ross thinks he looks like Claudia in that get up, but looks more like a seat cover from a regional bus service #TheTraitors #CelebrityTraitors

Oh, but JD Vance just said it was laddish banter. Don't tell me the Vice President is full of shit? 🤔

I know it's hardly the worst thing about him, but what the actual f*** are those stupid sunglasses? Did they come free with a Happy Meal in the 1980s?

Someone should ask him what BRICS is. The idiot hasn't got a clue. About anything. And they let him sit there talking bollocks.

FFS. It's not "raising furthe questions". We already KNOW it's illegal. No questions necessary.

I really hope this is true, as it's a rather beautiful story.

In 2004, Parisian police were conducting a training exercise in the french catacombs and found, after moving past a desk and a tape playing audio of snarling dogs, a fully functional movie theater and bar. When they returned 3 days later, the equipment was gone, with a note: “Do not try to find us.”

Members of the force's sports squad, responsible
- among other tasks - for policing the 170 miles of tunnels, caves, galleries and catacombs that underlie large parts of Paris, stumbled on the complex while on a training exercise beneath the Palais de Chaillot, across the Seine from the Eiffel Tower.
After entering the network through a drain next to the Trocadero, the officers came across a tarpaulin marked: Building site, No access.
Behind that, a tunnel held a desk and a closed-circuit TV camera set to automatically record images of anyone passing. The mechanism also triggered a tape of dogs barking, "clearly designed to frighten people off," the spokesman said.
Further along, the tunnel opened into a vast 400 sq metre cave some 18m underground, "like an underground amphitheatre, with terraces cut into the rock and chairs".

There the police found a full-sized cinema screen, projection equipment, and tapes of a wide variety of films, including 1950s film noir classics and more recent thrillers. None of the films were banned or even offensive, the spokesman said.
A smaller cave next door had been turned into an informal restaurant and bar. "There were bottles of whisky and other spirits behind a bar, tables and chairs, a pressure-cooker for making couscous," the spokesman said.
"The whole thing ran off a professionally installed electricity system and there were at least three phone lines down there."
Three days later, when the police returned accompanied by experts from the French electricity board to see where the power was coming from, the phone and electricity lines had been cut and a note was lying in the middle of the floor: "Do not," it said, "try to find us."

Exactly this. Whilst it's obviously a very good thing that there's a ceasefire and a hostage exchange, this is a very long way from being a peace plan.

Who pays for reparations? Is there a true Palestinian state? Who's guaranteeing the peace?

The USA has temporarily paused pumping billions into funding genocide.

Truly we are blessed to live in such peaceful times 🤮

MARCO RUBIO: This is probably one of the most important days for world peace in 50 years. That's not an exaggeration

TRUMP: Only 50?

RUBIO: Maybe 100

US President Donald Trump will receive a hero's welcome in Israel's parliament as a fragile Gaza ceasefire he helped to broker enters a fourth day, with the expected release of Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners. Follow our live coverage: reut.rs/4n59wzf
