Alice and Harry have bought costumes to spice things up in the bedroom: Maid Merlot and the Sherry of Nottingham. #TheArchers

Is anywhere in the UK more poorly served for rail than Borsetshire? Why has no-one been campaigning for more lines, tracks and services? This is what's holding back the Borsetshire economy. #TheArchers

How did Felpersham even get a Lord Mayor - normally you have to be a city for that. #TheArchers

Saw two great #BritishBasketballLeague games yesterday. In the women's game, Janika Griffith Wallace dropped an incredible 50 points (first time I've seen that in any game) as Durham beat Manchester 81-73. For the men, Manchester overturned the odds to beat Newcastle 91-89.

The Conservative's new colour scheme in Cheadle rings a bell - I'm sure I've seen it before somewhere, but I just can't place it!

Manchester's marmite towers - dividing opinion in the city for the last few years, and no doubt for many to come.

Oh no, how will we ever survive!😭theguardian.com/politics/2024/…

Just as Hamas attacked Israel on October 7 knowing and wanting the response it got (which doesn't excuse Israel's actions in Gaza), surely Israel's attack on the Iranian consulate was done to bring Iran into the conflict and so force the USA's hand?

Ed and Emma need our help to come up with a better name than Ultimate Arboriculture #TheArchers

How about:

Hazel Grove constituency has no Conservative councillors. For the first time since 2015, it doesn't have a Conservative MP either.
