Bend It Like Beckham sequel in the works, director tells BBC The British classic's director spoke to the BBC about the plans ahead of the Euros final on Sunday.

I appreciate I’m nearly a year late to this but what fantastic news. Maybe I’ll have finished the Own Goal sequel by then 🤡

Finally watched The Worst Person in the World….bloody brilliant, made me cry and then laugh within about a minute 😅

24k of novel down...more than I thought, which is nice :) I keep wanting to change quite fundamental things but I need to ignore that and save those ideas for draft 2 🤡

Ngl this has been a rough first week back at work. Death and redundancy. Thank fuck it’s Friday

Yesterday, I was suspended face down from the 75th floor of a skyscraper, and my heart rate still didn’t jump as high as it did when Jodie Whittaker asked to take a photo of one of my tattoos 🤡

This is the view from the Apple Store in IconSiam in Bangkok 😍

What is even being argued here? "A recent survey found that 86% of college students use Al regularly, which means that 14% are lying to survey-takers." Is it so hard to believe that there are some people who want to think for themselves? "There seem to be two options facing writers. The first is not to use Al at all, or to pretend not to use it. The other is to automate their writing practice. The first is retrograde and fearful. The second forgets that art is a human practice, made by people for people." I actually enjoy writing. Why is that 'retrograde and fearful'? In my opinion, I can write much better than ChatGPT, and I want to do it myself. "It is worth remembering that most art has always been slop." I don't even know where to start with this quote, so I'm just going to say you're wrong. "Thinking, creating, understanding - these cannot be replaced, certainly not by artificial intelligence. Trust me. I've tried." I thought you just compared mediocre writing to Al?

This person in the comments nailed it

I had to re-read several sections to try and understand the argument being made. Still not sure I fully understand what he’s on about…

One of the worst pieces of writing I’ve ever read 😂 this has to be rage bait

The Artemis rocket launches with a chyron below that says: Weather presenter Carol Kirkwood leaves BBC after 28 years.

Dramatic scenes at BBC Breakfast.

Thought I was seeing things but no, there is an 18-hole golf course between the runways at this airport 😂

Cannot believe I’m missing Carol Kirkwood’s last weather report 🥲

Joey would 100% be watching!

The planet Jupiter with its cloud bands seen in shades of pink, rusty red, blue, and purple. The Great Red Spot is a deep navy blue, surrounded by bands and swirls of pink, and light blue.

Hubble's ultraviolet view of Jupiter shows the planet in hues of pink and blue.

jupiter wishes you a very happy trans day of visibility 🏳️‍⚧️

Post a non-religious picture you think of as holy

I love that 13 inspired Orlando

Round of applause for our Thirteenth Doctor Jodie Whittaker's #BAFTATVAwards nomination for Toxic Town 💙

😭 that is such a 13 reaction

Ok so now all we’re missing is 13’s side of the equation…I predict Yaz will get into serious trouble in an upcoming adventure…

Crying in the minivan

Omg

If I could have told 2018 me when I wrote my first thasmin fic that this is where we’d be going?!

!!

Finally listening and OH how I love where this is going

Picture of my lunch spot yesterday - a sandy beach, some palm trees, and the ocean

Made it to holiday destination a few days ago…glorious. Have just about recovered from the first 3 months of the year and have finally opened up Scrivener ✍️ (yet to listen to Big Finish though…I couldn’t concentrate on that flight 😅)

Well that one vote has swung it, thank you :)

Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf tickets released before the flight 🥳 thank you Soho Place

I have just realised this says dribbles and not drabbles. I would like to blame autocorrect but I also have a slight concussion…this bodes well for what i wrote yesterday 😂

Stunning 😍

A cozy mystery style book cover. The title is A MURDER IN LAVENDER, written in purple over a dark, looming French chateau with a moat. Yasmin Khan and a human version of the 13th Doctor stand in a field of lavender plants in front of the chateau in 1920s clothes, Yaz in a yellow dress and the Doctor in white trousers, shirt, and sweater vest. They're looking at each other with a bit of worry.

Hello hello! Part two of the Yasmin Khan Murder Mysteries is here! :) archiveofourown.org/works/811581... Amazing cover art once again by the incredible @rosenkranz.bsky.social!!

Aww! So true 😌 hope you had a great time at the con!

I opened up a WIP and completely baulked earlier. So! I'm being kind to myself and working on some little dribbles instead of a big project. Hopefully I can post them by the end of the weekend :)

and hopefully it gets me back into the rhythm of writing! I really need to get back into a routine

That sounds fun! Do you know what games? 👀

Thank you Kuni! I hope you have a good weekend too - any nice plans? 🙂
