Hooray! The only thing apparently worth saying about comedy - that it’s being gagged - is being said once again by someone who’s done absolutely fucking fine by being allowed to do whatever comedy he wanted in an extremely friendly environment that no longer exists, for purely economic reasons.

Shuffle throwing The Headmaster Ritual out of nowhere and that frantic opening burst just pulling me back to my teens and forgetting for just a second that Morrissey is just a venal punchline these days.

Watched The Beast In Me on Netflix and found myself reduced to helpless laughter by Claire Danes’ wobbly-lip-and-chin crying face, which the script seemed to call for every five minutes or so. (She’s a brilliant actor, this just set me off for no reason).

'When they come here they don't even bother to learn the language'
And this is what happens when people do try and learn some English.
Let people improve their already limited life chances, and put down your silly little banners.

Place a new advertising tax on gambling firms. Seriously, that’ll make a serious contribution to the public coffers, the number of ads they run before and during matches is utterly eye-watering.

Last night was a dreadful slog for #CelticFC but the shot in the arm that comes from a last second stunner like that could help keep our heads above water until January. Here’s Radio Scotland very enjoyably urging the final whistle, to no avail.
