This is what the EHRC's shitty Code will result in.
All. The. Time.
It's already happening, but if the Code becomes statutory this kind of gender-policing-based-on-appearance will become an order of magnitude or two worse.

My son lost his driving license and ID on the train a few days ago and somebody has actually returned it to his home address

Genuinely would watch. I've not seen a Bond film for years (possibly since Casino Royale).
Right. Here's my big pitch:
Muppet James Bond
James Bond in…A Heart-Felt Goodbye
Dominic Cooper as Bond
Kermit M Frog
Mrs Moneypiggy
Beaker & Dr Bunsen HoneyQ
The agents of G.O.N.Z.O. want to kidnap the world's chickens. MI5 has a mole (Rizzo the Rat). An agent is undercover as a chef in Sweden.

I tried listening to that The News Agents podcast once and it was just intolerably smug. Didn't like her or him, but the other him was ok I guess.
Still better than the one with the war criminal and the spook though.
But yeah, rather stick pins in my feet and dance the macarena.

The YouTube algorithm is a fickle beast but it did somehow help my silly John Lewis/Blobby video reach 26k views. Even though it is old news now, I'd still appreciate a watch/like/comment to help massage the algorithm once again!

Back to work, but I don't have the existential dread. Quite relaxed. Probably cos Xmas break is around the corner.
Coffee then, and slay the unread notifications and emails.

Me, giggling like a goblin, strapping myself into the BBC Boss chair, commissioning non-celeb sitcom & sketch show after another. High concept narrative comedies by women! 100 shows with writers rooms! Tell whatever celeb blokes are doing a travel show they can make their own way back from Bordeaux!

Guess who's got one black foot and has worn out another pair of wellies?
The last two years have been so muddy during the winter here. I wore out an expensive pair of wellies in 3 months (which was annoying). One day I was all, why are my feet black and realised the heal had melted away.
