Failed the audition for Blockbusters and still bitter about it.

Mostly ranting about films, old TV, Top of the Pops and The Archers. Nearly halfway through the Crossroads box set!
Hooray! Looks like new (to the channel) episodes of #CrownCourt are back on @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social from 22nd Jan, starting with "A Case of Murder" starring John Barron and Kathleen Byron!

Tempted by the intriguing title of this book in Oxfam today. From the label inside it was a Sunday School prize which seems very broad minded of them. #booksky

I'm not a tech bro or a journalist. Your priorities are not my priorities. Stop telling me I need to do anything other than chat about comics & telly with people who seem nice.

A #TheArchers thing I’ve never seen before … booklet with promo photos and biographies of the 1950s cast. Sadly too pricey for me at £17.99

To quote the great Sean Hughes joke ...

"Have you heard Dana's dead?"
"No, what did she die of?"
"All kinds of everything"

(Dana is, of course, thankfully still with us)
