Romped through Lost Lambs by Madeline Cash, a story of family and conspiracy, relevant, absurd, warm, funny.

Anyone read The Methods of Sergeant Cluff?

Cluff the detective and Clive the dog (who he writes like a person) and throw in a Barker (not a dog).
I was a little confused and not much entertained.
Not a classic in the series imo.

Now I need to know.

Gorgeous!

This is genius.

Dynasty was even more bonkers than I remember. (I loved it).

Really eerie. Just looked up the solution and am still baffled…

Yes! So magical, so memorable and completely baffling.

Newspaper columnists are in a unique position to shape the political agenda 📰

But the profession isn't very accessible.

Our research found that half of Britain's newspaper columnists were privately educated.

This figure is up from 44% in 2019 and 43% in 2014.

Charmed by Project Hail Mary, Ryan Gosling on top form, it is warm, funny and escapist, if anyone feels the need for that sort of thing at the moment question?

It’s great.

Seconded!

I would say give Ann Patchett one more try with Tom Lake, which I found to be a beautiful book, and was subsequently a bit disappointed by Commonwealth.

The Best of Everything is great! Paulette is a character that has a special place in my heart.

Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.

Heartily agree. “Pop of colour” is one of my (many) bugbears.

Dear Mr Kirkdale bookshop keeper, It's me, the boy who asked to put the "One Piece" book on hold. How's your day been so far? Well for me, I'm getting thro teeth out at the dentist, not because their rotten but because I need to braces (I cind of scared). Due to the above, I will not be able to buy the book so please, please, please can you keep the book for one more day. From the boy, Jacob is my name. p.s. plase, please, please rec.

Imagine being like this. Maybe we actually were all once like this. Be more like this guy!

Hooray for BAFTA wins for Wunmi Mosaku and Robert Aramayo!

Very much seconded. Did shed a little tear when he won. Terrific performance, in such a lovely, warm, important film.

Danai Gurira Pens a Love Letter to ‘Sinners’: “Stop Trying to Categorize It” The first movie I ever saw in a theater was E.T. I was about five years old. I can’t recall every detail of that day — the popcorn, which parent I was with, or if I was wearing my favorite blue sneakers — but I remember the feeling. I remember how deeply it moved me, how much love and fear and pain and joy I felt for this strange little alien. My relationship with cinema was born in that moment: a sense of connection that lingers long after the credits roll.

Mackenzie Crook has become the antidote to Ricky Gervais’s cruel comedy Crook looks for the humanity in everyone – Gervais only points out their stupidity
