This is the plot to a Christmas movie. Plane full of New Yorkers find themselves stranded in Donny over the festive period. Dagger-heeled Manhattan executive (Sandra Bullock) gradually falls in love with East Coast Mainline signalman (Sean Bean). Jim Broadbent in the mix.

This still has to be one of the funniest line in comedy

What the fresh hell. This is REAL. Filmed in 1958- about a conman who grifts a small town of suckers into building a wall. History not subtle enough for you? GUESS THE GRIFTER'S NAME (And watch until the end)

Saw something lovely as I was eating my Sunday dinner earlier A young couple sat at the table next to me They looked and sounded like a couple just starting out and it was probably their first meal out together

Brace for mega thread on "ALL THEM RULES INNIT" There is a type of of brexiter who is motivated not by xenophobia, or Empire nostalgia, or buccaneering trade fantasies, but instead by "all them EU rules". Sadly they can never name a single one. So I have done some research...

Here’s this week’s cartoon for Guardian Australia #SaveHakeem theguardian.com/football/ng-in…

TUSK - "The UK is leaving the EU, many people in the UK wish for its reversal, I have always been with you with all my heart, but the pro-Brexit stance of the Prime Minister and the leader of the opposition rules out this question; there's no effective leadership for Remain'

Bank holiday reflections: I’ve worked flat-out on this for 2.5 years. It’s triggered multiple investigations & billion $ fines. But I’m in The Guardian bubble. Most of UK still entirely in dark. Took a US media org to do this. What next? How to get it out??

My woke 11yr daughter being introduced to the Bangles, 'Walk like an Egyptian' - "This is a racist song". Thx Titania McGrath

I thought I was fired up for a general election & then this video sent me over the edge. Time to shine.⚡️

I see that the #AustraliaBurning crisis has officially reached the 'drink uncle' stage, where people loudly proclaim that we could have avoided all of this if 'the greens' hadn't stopped hazard reduction. Which is weird for a bunch of reasons.

BREAKING: The government has announced it will be spending $2 billion of tax payer money on the current bushfire crisis. Why are regular Australians being forced to pay, while fossil fuel producers are being let off scot-free? nb.tai.org.au/climatedisaste… #auspol #AustralianFires

Meanwhile, in Australia.. A punch on in a Woolies supermarket over toilet paper.

Joy indeed.

The British are finally experiencing what's it like to have the British rule your country

Was this a waste of 5 hours?? Let me know 😅 Also can’t believe J.K. Rowling retweeted this video 🤪🤪🤪 Thank you guys for sharing! Jason Pitts #harrypotter #music
