Maybe one without a wide appeal beyond League 1 , but a great example of the growing quality of football analysis…

A mad L1 weekend with almost all the teams at the top losing. But reflects a division with not much between most teams. Here I look at the numbers & what it may mean for Dons.

Hundreds of 'irregular burials' have been identified from Roman Britain. Often the head was separated from the body after death and placed between the legs.
The rationale is unknown but one theory is it was to ensure the 'restless dead' stayed in the grave... #Halloween #RomanBritain

It’s impossible to avoid the conclusion that large parts of Westminster remaining on X - a platform that tolerates and amplifies extremism and racism - has led a great many people to normalise what previously was unacceptable.

Study of the #PriceofaPint in 155 countries: the priciest pint is £9.95 in Doha, the cheapest 68p in Madagascar. Blighty comes in 11th, average cost £5.50 though you'll pay more in London. You'll need a time machine back to 1986 to pay 68p for a pint in the UK! #BskyBeer

Jesus’ Blood… In 1971, when composer Gavin Bryars chanced upon the voice of an anonymous old man - "a tramp" - on a spool of discarded tape, he had no idea where his impulse to make a piece of minimal 'pop art' would lead. Great doc ICYM still up on #BBCsounds RN www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

'Still life with Daffodils.' (1890) Although an established portrait painter by the time he made this work, John Singer Sargent had a growing preoccupation with still-lifes; the forms of the flowers emphasizes the sense of exuberance he derived from painting them. #StDavidsDay

For over six centuries, Tyburn was the grim theatre of London’s most infamous executions. This wasn’t some discreet back-alley affair. No, the gallows at Tyburn—particularly the notorious ‘Tyburn Tree’—became an institution of death, justice, and grotesque public entertainment. Executions here were brutal, bloody, and, disturbingly, something of a city-wide social event. A Death Sentence with a Scenic Route…

'The Reading Girl.' Helene Schjerfbeck lived through the most seismic shifts in modern art, from Impressionism to Surrealism. Her fame may have spread further, were it not for WW1. In 1914, she was the only Finnish woman artist to take part in the Baltic Exhibition in Sweden.
