Spidey and his amazing friends theme is unironically one of my favourite songs. My daughter used to watch it mainly because she knew I loved the song.

My son, now 9, was into Potter - first 2 books and movies - last year, but got freaked out by movie 3 and has gone off it, but think he'll age back into it.
As an aside, a lot of the wizarding/Potter shops look like money laundering fronts to me. Does that mean it's a strong brand or a dying one?

I think that, as a function of the Tories decline, in a lot of people's minds he's already the de facto leader of the opposition. If there was a jump to take, I think it was him becoming an MP, rather than Loto. Once he gets those shots in the House of Commons, I think he looks parliamentary.

I don't think this holds as much as it used too. The same was always said of Johnson, and I think they showed how to navigate that. Reform would surely similar.

The thing is, there's probably value in it. I feel I am a very high information voter living online, but also low information on terms of what news non-political obsessives consume. I do my best to listen to Radio 2, but probably should watch the 10 more.
