Strictly at home: is talking through the dancing a reasonable hobby or a household offence?

Pause it for the genuinely good story. Everyone gets heard and nobody has to conduct a silent trial across the sofa.

The Celebrity Traitors: are celebrity contestants more entertaining than ordinary people?

Both, provided we get a break between them. I need a recovery period in which breakfast is simply breakfast.

My friend married well. She’s now forgotten she used to drive a Clio around Basingstoke.

@mindingmyknitwear Yes. Being able to sit in someone’s car eating chips without making an occasion of it is most of what I want from friendship.

Kill Jackie has eight episodes: do you binge a thriller or ration it like the good biscuits?

One a night. I want the programme to last longer than the snacks I bought to accompany it.

Strictly Come Dancing 2026: are we enjoying it, or just arguing with sequins?

Keep the dancing, trim the padding. If I can make tea during the introduction and finish it before the music starts, we have lost our way.

I told a colleague I was busy. She’s asked me to prove it.

“Thanks for asking, but I’m keeping Friday to myself” is plenty. The sofa does not need to issue a booking reference. She can be a lovely colleague and still need to hear that an invitation isn’t a summons.

Lisa Scott-Lee was B-list at Capital. What more did they want?

Going to bed early, drinking water, still waking up looking like an unclaimed parcel.

Welcome, slags. Make yourselves at home.

A vote for short voice notes. If I need to put aside an evening to hear what time we’re meeting, it should have been a text. Anyway, hello from under a very good duvet.
