Had a weird little #dream last night where I had to explain the World Wars to #AdamAdamant (from the 1960s #UKTV show where an Edwardian adventurer is defrosted in the Swinging Sixties). His upper-class 1902 sensibilities were genteelly appalled by what had happened while he was away.

am kinda obsessed right now with this trapeze coat. not in love with that mod hat/cap. am more partial to cloche hats (late 1920s-30s). they also had trapeze coats in that era.

This TV series will be screened weekly from 24th January. It features UK celebrities, Amanda Holden and Alan Carr, restoring an old property in the town of Moclin, just north of Granada.
More details will be released about our part in this series in due course.

SAS Rogue Heroes tonight. Enjoyed the first episode of the second season. Some interesting characters and unarguably a compelling part of history. Some great music as well. Really well done.

How you know the wave is breaking:
Tonight on mainstream commercial TV, exactly the same TV ads for non-tech home products (heating, etc) have chirpy-comfort voiceovers saying ‘Now powered by AI!’ that 18 months ago were saying, ‘Now powered by Blockchain!’

OMG if only THIS GUY would come over to Mastodon: Rodney Marshall, son of British TV writer Roger Marshall (The Avengers, The Sweeney, among many others). What a terrific feed (at least if your interest is 1960s-1970s UK action/adventure/espionage) that's one of the Good Things I will miss from The Bird Site. #ClassicTV #UKTV

This season of #Taskmaster is genuinely one of the best ever. I would say the best ever but that could be recency bias. It has all of the best ingredients of a good season and almost none of the drawbacks. #TV #UKTV
