I have not missed MasterChef or its other series like MasterChef Professionals, Young MasterChef, Son Of MasterChef, MasterChef 2 The Wrath Of Khan etc. Too many series a year on too often. Enjoy the break people, it won't last!
SCOOP: The next series of MasterChef has been delivered to the BBC. Just one problem - Gregg Wallace is in pretty much all of it.
Does the BBC show it with 50 people making allegations about his behaviour to BBC News?
Latest problem for Tim Davie...

An antidote to TV’s Bridgerton, a new historical novel with resonances of Windrush and a nod to Dickens is set in the notorious St Giles rookery. Angela Cobbinah talks to the author(s)

Happy Publication Day to @kateagriffin.bsky.social and Marcia Hutchinson, who are #LilaCain. This is a wonderful book, moving and fascinating and completely gripping. 💚
And they’re flying! It’s publication day for #TheBlackbirdsofStGiles by me & @Marciathewriter as #LilaCain. We are so proud of our sweeping historical novel set in the diabolical rookery of St Giles - the dark heart of Georgian London. Can love, the bonds of family & hope triumph?

I'm working on my half of the Best of 2024 episode of @badbooksbadppl.bsky.social, so technically there is still time for a book to dethrone Kate Griffin's Fyneshade as my favorite book of the year, but it's looking increasingly unlikely as we wind down.
