Genuinely I would absolutely hate the producers if I was on #TheTraitors This mission is terrifying.

As we lose the final episodes of Doctors from BBC iPlayer what is really telling is how much drama especially UK originated has been lost from TV especially when you remember we lost Holby City and it's replacement is a few series of Waterloo Road and that last series was burnt across four weeks.
End of an era… today is the final day to watch my final ep of Doctors
leaving @bbciplayer.bsky.social at 2:45pm.
As these final 16 eps play out, please remember the hundreds of people who have struggled to find work since the axe fell… 😢😢🤬

Graham shows his true colours, Bear has big news for the partners, and Rosie is on a mission. Jimmi loses his cool when trying to help a patient.

I don't think enough people talk about how great BBC Bitesize is. Secondary school textbooks are now vanishingly rare and Bitesize content is (a) not in a terrible app, (b) engaging and interesting and easy to understand, and importantly (c) FREE. A properly great digital public good.

Catching up on this week's #HIGNFY and delighted that it's @vcorenmitchell.bsky.social hosting and that the amazing Dame Sheila Hancock is a guest. It's going to be a good one.

Today is going to be a scorcher of a #heatwave in parts of the UK

To stay safe remember to:
- Seek shade
- Dress lightly
- Drink plenty of water
- Wear SPF if you go out

To keep your house cool, it may seem counterintuitive but, keep windows, curtains and blinds shut - keep the heat out.

When did the term liquor fall out of use in Britain? Watching a 1983 film from Nationwide and it's used throughout.

Companies should, by law, be forced to tell you before you make your purchase which courier service they use.

Today's been a difficult day. I took the right decision to finish work early which allowed me to head to the gym, change the scenery and get some exercise in. Then when I came out I was reminded I have tickets to The Traitors Prom to look forward to.

Something that confuses me. Why is this not a permitted route?

Annoying. Grace featuring a juror having a mobile phone in the jury room - we know that wouldn’t be happening.

@moogal.bsky.social I think this week's Secret Genius of Modern Life might appeal to you when you are back. 🎢

Given Europe will in due course implement their own advanced travel requirement it feels like there needs to be a joined up approach where a single application perhaps at the cost of either the UK or EU fee is valid across the entire Island of Ireland.

Honestly, Claudia’s asides to camera are hilarious. A nice touch from the production team. #TheTraitors

Traitors fact that changes how you watch it. The edit is done in two sections. The first edit is of the round table. Once that’s locked, they go back and make the round table seem inevitable, by editing the day’s footage to set up what you see at the end. That’s why it seems narratively strong.
