The moment I realised he was investigating The Twelve outside of the protection of MI6 I knew he was a goner.

Tim Brooke-Taylor died today too.

Hopefully, when this is all over, Trump will be called to task over his utter failure and the loss of life that ensued/is still ensuing.

Two points to bring up here:

This clip is so exclusive, we saw it last year in the UK...

Taika Waititi gets a nice cameo in as one of Merrick’s balladeers...

Seamus from Pink Floyds Echoes. It’s not a bad song, it just doesn’t fit with the rest.

So, “turned The Lighthouse into a SpongeBob episode” means “has taken a few disjointed sequences and added a goofy soundtrack”

Poitin is still illegal- what is available legally has been watered down to meet the maximum ABV threshold. But if you know the right people, you can still get your hands on the real thing (mainly in the west of Ireland). Nancy Blakes still stands BTW.

Moffat wanted out and Chibnall wanted the job. ‘nuff said.

Cyberfreyans...

Jim Norton has already been in Doctor Who.

The police station that Brendan applied to had a Garda Siochana lamp outside the front, so definitely set in Ireland. Judging by the accents, somewhere on the west (Sligo? Connemara?)

I think this episode might be the first nail in the coffin for nu-Who.

I liked it- not as good as Toast Of London, but on a par with What We Do In The Shadows. And Taika Waititi gets a cameo...

Meanwhile on this side of the pond, it’s Inside No.9- I really loved the Psychoville crossover episode last week.

Picard: What a magnificent pilot!
Everyone: What. A. Magnificent. Pilot.
5 seconds later: BOOM!

In this special episode, Picard visits the High Council Of Elves to petition for a warrior to join him on his quest...

“Don’t let the Lone Cyberman get the Cyberium!”

Add “Tinned food” to that list: San Marzano tomatoes; baked beans; chickpeas; coconut milk; chestnuts.
