I’ve not seen The Traitors. Is it a rehash of The Mole that Channel 5 did in the early 00s? If so, it’s the bloke with the curly hair.

We're doing quite a bit of videoing at events, trade shows, training sessions etc. The thing about being dull & middle aged is I can blend in to the background to get the best, most relaxed, natural shots.

UM, I had NO idea facebook was tracking everything I did on the internet. EVERYTHING. I have diligently blocked and followed all ways to try to stop this messed up social media from taking from me, but this is the final straw… THESE JERKS! AGH! [screenshots on how to do it in the comments]

I doubt any Troll here who’s trying to smear Keir Starmer about decade-old events will be interested to read these pages from my book about his record prosecuting rape gangs. But he’s done more to bring them to justice than Farage, Yaxley-Lennon - or Musk -will ever do.

Don't tell me BBC boffins, the best boffins in the world, cannot use state of the art technology to swap out Gregg Wallace with Dom Littlewood, Heston Blumenthal, Harry Hill, Stanley Tucci, Matt Lucas etc. What are we all so worried about AI for if they can't even do that?
