Saw this show when it previewed locally. Atmospheric and utterly convincing. If you're in Edinburgh for the fringe go and see it you won't be disappointed.

Unless, like me, you're looking for Telly Tubbies content.

My wife sent this picture from Brecon Cathedral and straight away one of our sons replied:

And I can't decide if he was referencing Pavlov or It's A Wonderful Life 🤯

Warwick University Labour society has broken with the Labour Party and rebranded as Warwick Labour Movement aiming to support the "Your Party" and other socialists.

Good for them, now get out on the streets for Palestine, and to the mass pickets of the Coventry firm scabbing on the Brum bin strike
