While a generally like Lewis more than Amber I don’t know how he’s gonna beat that powerhouse of a Charleston #Strictly

So happy for Balvinder and Karen!!! Want them both in the final and for Karen to win but it’d also be wonderful if Dance Off Survivor Bal won the whole thing #Strictly
BALVINDERIIIIIIIINAAAAAAAA! LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOO! #strictly #scd

A bit overlong but the songs and the general sense of whimsy were lovely. The Child Catcher was seriously creepy and would’ve definitely freaked me out if I watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang as a child.

I’ve never seen Chitty Chitty Bang Bang but it’s on TV so I’m gonna rectify that.

Just got in from getting mum a paper from the village shop and now I plan to do very little this weekend besides watch films, shows, and read my book because for once I don’t have anything I have to do on my days off (unless I’ve forgotten something)

After watching Prime Minister (a really interesting documentary about Jacinda Ardern) at the cinema yesterday, I’ve now watched #52FilmsByWomen this year with a couple of weeks to go.

Once again, I've pledged to watch (at least) 52 films directed by women this year. This list has all the films made by women that I have watched for this challenge.

EBU’s decision is so frustrating. The double standard of kicking Russia out of #Eurovision but not Israel is ridiculous. “United by Music” my arse.

Joanne will never run out of money because people keep buying her stuff, and so this will keep happening. SLAPP after SLAPP until trans people are completely drummed out of public existence and nobody will do a thing about it

Tonight’s double bill at the cinema - both were funny, touching, and all around excellent.

Think I’ve actually given myself a bit of a headache trying to wrap my brain around the monthly banking. My brain isn’t made for such things. Even though I do it every month I just can’t get a hang of it.

Not watched enough (good) films to have a #Top5FirstViews this month so here’s my 3 favourite first time watches of November:
- Last Christmas (2019)
- Now You See Me: Now You Don’t (2025)
- Predator: Badlands (2025)

rich dudes got freakier after butlers fell out of fashion, like say what you will about having domestic servants but clearly it was some sort of moderating force on old rich dudes having a fancy man follow you around saying shit like "oh dear sir, that wouldn't be very becoming"

My votes this week are:
- 4 votes for Karen & Carlos
- 1 vote for Amber & Nikita purely for Nikita’s outfit and the car crash end to their Instant Dance
#Strictly

I’m with Anton, I want this Instant Dance chaos every week! Not laughed that hard in ages - mostly at Nikita’s outfit but the stuff back stage of them scrambling to get into their outfits was also hilarious #Strictly

I cackled when they got on the dance floor and Alexis immediately told him to get that coat off ASAP #Strictly
I might never recover from this fiasco? #scd #strictly

Nikita is throwing his hat into the ring for the #Strictly hosting gig with his talking to the camera bit there 🤣

Nikita having to dress himself for a randomly generated samba to a Shakira Song might be the one true sign of a higher power. #scd #strictly

I love Nikita’s shocked face 🤣 #Strictly

I love Karen and Carlos so much!!! They’re my winners #strictly
