Amazing final episode of Taskmaster, so close! Reece and Maisie made one of the best teams ever, while Ania and Phil were new to me but are now firmly on my "comedians I want to see live" list. And not long to wait before all the Christmas & New Year specials now!

Final episode of #CelebrityTraitors was incredible television. Just when I thought it would all be very predictable - TWIST! Definitely going to watch the next non-celeb version, I have been missing out!

Watched the movie Eden. It's a fascinating true story but a bit plodding and too long. Ana de Armas is fun as the craziest character, and Sydney Sweeney has some strong scenes, but I suspect the documentary version probably worked better.

I was in the audience for this one! Listen closely and you may be able to hear me laughing. (Unlikely, it was packed to the rafters.)

Lot of people on here celebrating last night's result. Bit of an overreaction I thought - it was obvious Jasmine was going to win Bake Off, she's been Star Baker loads of times and had more handshakes than the Queen (the dead one).

Hopefully this can wrap up the disappointing RTD2 era and pave the way for a new era of #DoctorWho with a fresh new cast and crew. Or it could just be Christmas specials with Piper or Tennant for the next ten years...
Russell T. Davies will write a #DoctorWho 2026 Christmas Special, the BBC has confirmed, along with news that their Disney+ deal is over.

British Summer Time ends tonight. Of course, like every 25 years, tonight is a rollover, so don't forget to put your clocks back 2 hours.

Only problem with #CelebrityTraitors is the Faithful are so useless we might go through the entire series without seeing what happens when a Traitor gets banished. I don't know if that's happened before but it would be a bit of an anticlimax.

Final episode of #GenV was a bit underwhelming, just disposing of the bad guy and setting up the next season of The Boys. I know they had to rewrite at the last minute, but s2 as a whole felt rushed and unsatisfying. Hamish Linklater was great throughout to be fair.

This is a great listen, even if you haven't seen either show they talk about. Hilarious first half, with Lizbeth viciously hating a show Paul has clearly been a fan of since childhood, and the second half got me wondering why nobody has ever done a show adapting all Asimov's robot stories.
