Chain Smoking, caffeine addict watching the comings & goings at BBC News. Love the Beeb. Not trying to cause offence (usually). Not to be taken too seriously.

Guess who's running the BBC News (UK) Home desk today. The splendid SallyJTHep. Does anyone know the scruffy side kick though? Looks like one of those BBC Radio 4 types.

For the 157th week in a row I have not featured in Richard Burgess's "Celebrating Success" email. I even started flashing some ankle and wearing skinny jeans to try and impress. #gutted

Look at Martha Kearney! She is just loving life. A year ago she was up at the crack of dwan on BBC Radio 4 Today working with a bunch of peacocks and ugly ducklings. Now, she's got swans. Lots of 'em! ❤️❤️❤️

Sunday morning. You know what time it is? Laura Kuenssberg time.

It's Ladies Night for BBC News (UK) legends Jo-Anne Pugh Allie Hodgkins-Brown Pam Milner @deborahsmithproducer Deborah Smith Máirín Mulvey Maddy Carbery and their crew. Let's get this party started.

So I am hungover after Ladies Night. Mouth like a badgers arse and a head like a bag of spanners. I am blaming Jo-Anne Pugh. 3 double esspressos and a pack of B&H this morning hasn't even helped. Anyone else?


Black Sunday with the single use vape ban coming in to effect. Get back on the fags is my advice. However, have told Jonathan Beale that if he's desperate, bbcturkish are selling knock off ones at the back of Nero's. Three for a tenner.

Three months since the Gaza doco sh!tshow and still zero accountability. Classic BBC News (UK). Debbie hoping it will all just go away.

Word from the 3rd floor of NBH is that one of BBC News (UK)'s "flagship" presenters has been unofficially blocked from doing Gaza interviews for the best part of a year because of concerns from editors and producers about impartiality. 😬😬😬

Did you know the brilliant Simon Jones has got a little caravan up on the white cliffs of Dover with a full cocktail bar and jacuzzi?

Good to see Penfold giving Baron Greenback a hard time on BBC Breakfast .

Great we've got Special Constable Daniel Sandford on the case.

Did you know Chris Mason that the train company first came up with this slogan after Laura Kuenssberg's hen do back in the day? #messy

Loving the handbags between Debs and Karoline Leavitt Karoline Leavitt. Would pay good money to see a bare knuckle fight to the death. Pretty sure Debbie would come out on top. Especially if she'd had a few shandies.


Love Fridays with the big man Jonathan Whitney running the BBC News (UK) desk today. For him it's a....


Today, one of the most talented, experienced, brilliant and fun producers ever to work at the BBC News (UK) has walked out the building for the last time. The cat lady Cara Swift is a legend. Our loss will be somebody else's gain. BBC management playing another blinder.
