Pope Francis sadly died in April, leading to a conclave and the election of a new Pope. As is tradition, the Pope’s gold ring was removed from his finger and smashed with a hammer, mainly to stop Donald Trump picking it up and keeping it for himself.

I was walking out of King's Cross Underground Station as Barry Cryer was walking in. I said to myself, 'Ooh, that's Barry Cryer' and kept walking.
