I am aware of the irony of that last sentence by the way.

For almost as long as I’ve watched football, Match of the Day with Gary Lineker has been a constant. A fitting farewell to a broadcasting great on tonight’s show. Saturday nights won’t quite be the same again. #MotD

Crisis averted! #Eurovision

Racking up the points now! #Eurovision

Luxembourg, Latvia, Italy and Switzerland got my votes tonight. Always fun to see how out of touch with the rest of Europe I am! #Eurovision

Come on this is classic Professor Layton! #ChessMasters

Having had so many nearly and what if moments over the past thirty years or so, I don’t think I can truly explain how much this means. HOWAY THE LADS!

All right, fun's over. The #OnlyConnect CHAMPION OF CHAMPIONS SPECIAL kicks off in half an hour: 2023 champions the Strigiformes grapple with 2024 champions the Thrifters. The teams are lovely. The questions are not.

8pm on BBC Two.

BBC Two - Only Connect, Series 20 Specials, Champion of Champions Special: Strigiformes v Thrifters It’s every champion’s dream to beat another champion - and now is their chance...

Looking forward to 8pm and seeing groups of shady characters look to get one over on their opponents in a show famous for its mind games and its iconic female host.

And after Only Connect’s Champion of Champions, I’ll be catching up with The Traitors.

It’s good of the BBC to put the second episode of #TheTraitors on iPlayer a day early so everyone can watch tomorrow’s #OnlyConnect Champion of Champions instead. #plug
