One thing I love about rocket launches on TV is not knowing what you’re looking at. After immediate launch, the visuals change every 20 seconds to things you have no idea about but they look very official, it’s peak “monitoring the situation”. And the situation for #ArtemisII is looking great
I’ve recently got back to watching Better Call Saul. Hadn’t finished it first time around. So, so good. Goes without telling the storytelling is incredible.

A frosty Mount Errigal in Donegal yesterday. What a time of year to be in that part of the world #ireland #winter #Donegal
Wishing Major a happy retirement! We were lucky to see him in the office yesterday for one last visit as he begins his retired life. I suspect, though, that he was the gold standard for guide dogs. What a good boy.

This was a great show to work on. Unsurprisingly, I wasn’t able to get my drone up near the Prison!
You're nicked! ... if you don't tune in to this week's My Kind of Town. It's in Peterhead where I learned about one of the former major employers; the Peterhead Prison. It's now a museum but was home to some of Scotland's most notorious prisoners. On the BBC Scotland channel, 8pm tomorrow night
This series of #BlueLights has been great, but this minute of TV is exceptional, and the drone shot to hand held is sublime. When one-shot was used in Adolescence I think we were all primed for it, but here I think it ups the jeopardy and adrenaline of the scene. 10/10.
If he didn’t catch the new episode of #MyKindOfTown you can watch it on the iPlayer when I find out all about Alloa. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...
Top quality filming from the floor here, even if I do say so myself

For viewers across the UK, do yourself a favour and get BBC Two on now. All-Ireland final day and you’ve the chance to see the fastest sport on grass. Cork v Tipperary is one of the massive heavyweight clashes in sport. Try it, you won’t be disappointed
Foolishly, he forgot to request danger money for this particular job
Dirty work, someone has to do it
A documentary about guide dogs (specifically about @ianhamiltonbbc.bsky.social getting a new one and that process) will be coming at some point. Keep your eyes peeled for more videos just like this
Absolutely brutal day of work recently at the Guide Dogs national centre. Sad to say I wasn’t able to save our cameraman from getting savaged (licked)
The bags are packed. The dog treats are ready. The crew has been assembled. Time to head to #Peterhead for another My Kind of Town. A couple of weeks ago, we went for a nose about as you'll see in this short film

There's been some dressing down on this year's My Kind of Town as opposed to dressing up on day 4 of My Kind of Town filming in #Alloa. I tried to get Major's views on me doing judo, but he was tight lipped and unimpressed
