While pollution and the greenhouse effect kill off life on Earth, tech-bros plot to save themselves. Ben Elton’s brilliant autobiography sent me back to this, his first novel from 1989, and it’s eerily prescient.

I know nothing about Dr Who, but, for Londoners, the phrase "Going For Dinner With Billie Piper" is the absolute best way to remember the order of the vertical streets running east to west in Soho (Greek, Frith, Dean, Wardour, Berwick, Poland) and has saved many a late night out

I genuinely had no idea it was a naughty polluting crime to pour a mouthful of cold coffee dregs into a street drain, I shall return to pouring the in bins, thus icking them up, while paying £££ to my local water company to pump raw sewage into a rare chalk stream x
