Absolutely love this plaque they've put on Cleveleys Seafront marking the Andor filming location
The 'he was just a tourist!' line is a lovely touch

Shout out to Gary Imlach. The best sports presenter on TV. He’s presented the Tour de France for decades on Channel 4 and now ITV4. Today will probably be his last day as ITV4 have lost the rights. Summers will not be the same 😢
Chapeau Gary! Thanks for everything

for the price of the second series of andor, you could fund all of bbc radio 4 for three years
The lack of interest in the industry at the moment at proposing a show that could come in at a reasonable or low budget is one of the biggest surprises in my career.
I’ve spoken to lots of writers about it. It’s a total blind spot. Nobody wants to make cheap scripted TV.

The Bob Vylan story matters more than the typical BBC bashing article because the direction of travel (especially in news) is towards more, niche live streams rather than encouraging viewers to watch a single channel. This has highlighted that every stream requires the same compliance as BBC One!

Not enough people talking about what an amazing addition to the #glastonbury coverage the remote towercam in front of the Pyramid Stage is. Getting the shot blocked for years by a sea of flags!

The response we’ve received for #InsideOurMinds has been completely overwhelming – exposing neurotypical (and neurodivergent) viewers to the unfiltered , honest experience of ADHD and dyslexia was our aim , and the incredible stories of Henry , Jo , Lee and Suiki have done just that .

‘So the Germans could have been one up, if only they’d got two down.’

If you saw the 1980s BBC1 globe before EastEnders earlier, you may like to know it was produced live by the original generator, pictured below.
Here it is, with a carefully repaired power supply, ready to go live to the Nation at 7.30.
