I don't know what's more humourless to be honest... the lawyers for Studio Canal & The Michael Bond Estate, or those terribly unfunny Spitting Image YouTube clips in the first place.
Definitely a long way from the show at its peak... and their Paddington was pretty much a racist stereotype anyway.

Had a lovely afternoon and evening at Arcade Club - the biggest arcade in Europe - which just so happens to be in my hometown.
There's all sorts of modern video games set as free to play here.... but the real gems are the vintage 70s/80s/90s arcade consoles and pinball machines. What a place!

Gallifrey Base is still full of people who think the Season 13 box set doesn't have any problems with shonky AI upscales.
As a reminder. This is what people claim they cannot see.

I love seeing artists I admire in the same room as one another.
So here's Pauline Black (The Selecter), Tanita Tikaram and Rhoda Dakar (The Bodysnatchers), who are all magnificent.

Can you imagine the sheer power that would be unleashed if Zach Polanski and Martin Lewis ran into each other and became one giant mega campaigner for fairness like Station in Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey?

Saw a story about how a former soap actor is now working in a burger hut in Macclesfield. Took one look at their social media.
Repeated retweets of transphobic rhetoric, pro-Israel nonsense and xenophobia.
Yeah... not surprised that's where they've ended up, tbh.
The man's a bigot, so he is.

We visited this in Madrid last Spring. It was... ok. The sets were great but what they don't show you in the pictures was how much they relied on cardboard cutouts and the sheer churn of people being pushed through at all times.

Good riddance to Tim Davie. A man who pushed xenophobic and transphobic rhetoric, platformed facism, outright lied about Bob Vylan, and put the BBC's reputation in the gutter. He'll go get some cushy job with Reform or something now or be an after dinner speaker but at least he's gone from the Beeb.

The weirdest thing... despite having Netflix money *AND* Queen Productions money... this Stranger Things remix of Who Wants to Live Forever released as a digital single today sounds like they've pushed the vocals through an AI separator which has phased them a little instead of using multi-tracks.

There is a dude on Instagram who makes amazing customers Doctor Who action figures but I cannot for the life of me figure out how the ones he sells actually sell. He has an etsy and ebay store filled with heads but keeps saying his full figures go up then I never see them do so.
