My philosophy has always been this:

If you try to convince me something is shit, you’re wrong & will fail.

If you try to convince me something is great, you’re right & winning at life.

If we all agreed on everything life would be dull; it’s how we go about our differences that’s important.

Just got back from the doctor's. The bad news is that tests have revealed I have Onomatopoeia.
Naturally concerned, I asked, 'What's that?'
'I'm afraid,' he replied, looking up from his notes with a serious expression. 'It's exactly what it sounds like.'

The BBC Scotland commentary for Kenny McLean’s halfway line goal is glorious. Stuff of dreams. 🔥

Congratulations #Scotland, see you at the World Cup.

The fronting for the eighty-yard-long marble-topped bar had been made by stitching together nearly twenty thousand Antarean Mosaic Lizard skins, despite the fact that the twenty thousand lizards concerned had needed them to keep their insides in.

I have to be honest, I do think that if you’re bothering to go out and see Michael Palin introducing a showing of Life of Brian, you should probably turn your phone off.

It happened TWICE.

I love Star Cops and I loved The Merfolk Murders - Tim's classic crime style Fifth Doctor, Adric, Nyssa and Tegan audio drama. So this could be right up my street.
MURDER ON MARS! All episodes just dropped on BBC Sounds.
Or, you can tune in today at 14:15 on BBC Radio 4.
I’d love it if you gave it a listen!

Following the critically-acclaimed release of The Chimes, I've produced two more full-cast adaptations of Charles Dickens’ Christmas stories; THE CRICKET ON THE HEARTH & THE HAUNTED MAN.

Extremely proud of this. It will make your Christmas 100% more Christmassy!

That girl bands documentary is great fun (apart from the bits that are horribly bleak), but we really need to call time on opening programmes with footage of interview subjects finding their marks, adjusting their seats and farting about with the clapperboard.
