Remembrance Day is now dominated by performative nonsense. You don't need a house sized poppy and a model spitfire to show you care about the sacrifices made for the country. Where's the sense of dignity and the quiet respect gone?

Oscar Piastri will be thanking his lucky stars there's only 8 points up for grabs on a sprint race, but that was a silly mistake at a crucial time in his championship battle #SaoPauloGP #F1 #F1sprint

The first 30 seconds of that Kylie video look like when #Strictly has some duffer who can't dance so they make them sit on a chair for the first half of the routine while their partner whizzes around like the Tazmanian Devil #TOTP

I can't find the clip right now, but have a look for Bob Monkhouse's "Earth Wind and FIre" joke on a VERY old #HIGNFY - the timing and reaction is perfect.

He was considered old-hat at the time, a washed-up shiny floor gameshow host.

That episode proved he very much still had a gift. #TOTP

I always assumed Ron Mael was a bit of a grumpy arse, but I saw him on Never Mind the Buzzocks and it turns out he has the most exquisite comic timing.

Can't hear "The Eels" without thinking of "Eels up inside you, finding an entrance where they can" from the Mighty Boosh #TOTP

Going to miss the first #TOTP of the evening, but given that I'll dodge both Boyzone and Robbie Williams, I think I that's probably for the best.

Gutted for Joe to come so close, but Alan was a deserved winner. He played the game some badly it was actually genius, and his reaction to winning was so sweet and genuine. Nick and David were so gracious and supportive to him, which was lovely to see. Gonna miss all the #CelebrityTraitors

Alan has won then! Paloma would be turning in her grave. #TheTraitors #CelebrityTraitors

Genuinely gutted for Joe. He's played #CelebrityTraitors like an absolute boss.

Nick should win purely on the strength of that round table outfit. Very elegant! #TheTraitors #CelebrityTraitors

That lid repeatedly slamming on Joe's head is Sideshow Bob rake levels of funny 😂

Happy #CelebrityTraitors finale day to those who celebrate.

I'm so conflicted: I desperately want Alan to win for the #Traitors becuase he was so awful it was almost genius; but I also want Joe M and Nick to win as they've played such a smart game all the way through.

I expect fireworks!

It's really bizarre to watch Trump and RFK's reactions.

A human has collapsed. Couldn't they at least try to fake some concern?

No. Zero empathy. Zero human emotion.

Ghouls.

RFK Jr's response to someone collapsing nearby him was to haul ass out of the room as quickly as possible
