The most amazing, heart-breaking, dramatic start to any documentary series ever. TV at its finest.

I've heard so many versions of this song and they're all great. But in my opinion, this is the best version ever.

Novak Djokovic defeats top seed Alexander Zverev at the China Open. His rage against the dying of his tennis light continues. This point is absolutely insane.

Adverts were way better back in the 1980s & 1990s.
Case study: Gregor Fisher. Photo booth. Comb-over. Hamlet cigar.
Good advertising was a cigar called Hamlet.

Glen Campbell. William Tell Overture.
A jaw-dropping display of guitar 🎸 playing coordination. Blazing-fast rapid alternate picking and musical showmanship.

Congratulations John Healey on becoming Chancellor - some are daunted by No11; my guess is you’ll relish it. If you want a sense of the political challenge facing Labour Chancellors: almost 20pc of all Labour’s Chancellors have been called Healey.

The difference in style is astonishing.
Keir Starmer was a wooden Mr Lectern.
Andy Burnham breezed through his first speech as Prime Minister with no lectern and without notes.

Almost the entire Royal Box had left Centre Court by the time the final match of the day got underway at Wimbledon between Alexander Zverev and Jiri Lehecka at 9pm. One person however, remained in their seat: Roger Federer. A class act who genuinely loves the game of tennis. 🎾

Andy Burnham knows, when he looks out at the media attending any press conference, that a huge chunk of them are paid to harm him, paid not to listen and whose bosses represent a circular firing squad out to undermine him.
This is the reality. This is why it makes sense, on a day like today, to let the speech flow through broadcast media unmitigated by ‘But is Ed going to ruin the economy by being Chancellor….’
Eric Joyce retweeted
If true that @andyburnham not taking media questions after speech today then good move. Speeches matter and when important should speak for themselves. A problem with Keir S communications was that he would make a speech, then take Qs and the broadcast journalists in particular would make it more about them and their “take” than him. If and when he becomes PM Burnham will be answerable to Parliament, not the showbiz style media coverage of politics. The blah factory will go into overdrive today with journalists interviewing each other about how they ought to be allowed to ask Qs. The speech itself is more important than anything they say before during or after. Setting the agenda vital from the off.

❤️ Real heroes don’t always wear capes. Sometimes they’re simply people who stop to help when they don’t have to. Small acts of kindness can make a life-changing difference. 🙏✨
