Paul Gambaccini is doing a live whole-show tribute to Steve Wright and it's flipping intense! Quite right too.
Buster Keaton was born 128 years ago today, on October 4, 1895
GIVE THE PERSON WHO SIGNED “CHA CHA CHA” A RAISE #Eurovision
Steve Wright In The Afternoon is really pulling out all the stops with the Factoids in his last week. A lion's roar can be heard five miles away! Live snails need their own ticket to travel on trains in France! From next week, can someone phone me every day and tell me nonsense?
"That's got so much compression on it, it pulled my tonsils out" - Steve Wright, on the new Cheat Codes single (no, me neither).
What a relief that Steve Wright is allowed to play Harry Styles and do factoids again (royal factoids only), but I'm glad he coped with an afternoon of playing very slow songs while reading out emails about how the Queen scattered a bit of magic everywhere she went.
Things can't be too bad for the Queen as Steve Wright is reading out cheery well wishes to her from people in camper vans.
Yesterday's Steve Wright revelation was that Maureen Lipman once got so annoyed about Serious Jockin' that she sent him an angry email! But he never read it, perhaps because she forgot to end it with "Love the show!".
Steve Wright: "There is a slow time of day, isn't there - I think that accounts for our popularity..."
A book I wrote with @vivschwarz is out soon: rules for games that can be played entirely with household objects. A few classic parlour games and a lot of weird invented ones. Everything is a Game. Available on the 18th from wherever you get your books. hachette.co.uk/titles/viviane…

Steve Wright has just played a shocker of a song by New Kids On The Block feat. Salt N Pepa et al, about how marvellous it was to be alive in 1989. "I keep thinking that's going to be annoying. It's actually... all right!", he says, not very diplomatically.

Last week @Telegraph asked me and a few other 'real-life tortured poets' to review Taylor Swift's new album ... My opening para below; read on for the rest and other contributions (I guffawed at Don Paterson's take, but all are terrific): telegraph.co.uk/music/artists/…
I got really emotional filling this in. But to be fair I was already quite emotional. Thank @tomewing for giving us these years of joy. I'm sorry I never made the most of it while we had it.
Here it is - THE RAGNAPOP DRAFT BALLOT To fill the 64 remaining final poll slots forms.gle/3rAPXCNWHcXchJ… It's a form with 8 groups of tracks, you pick a certain number of tracks from each group. You can go back and edit answers, so you don't have to do it all at once!
it should be FORBIDDEN to take photographs in a gallery, you should instead WAIT TILL THE GIFT SHOP and RIFLE THROUGH THE POSTCARDS IN VAIN FOR THE PICTURE YOU LIKED
Thank you everyone! That was a fun poll overall with a good range of tracks (and some excellent finalists) - NEXT STOP RAGNAPOP! (or in fact the Ragnapop Draft Form which I’ll put up tomorrow)
It’s always my fault, isn’t it.

WhatsApp just changed their "online" and "typing" subheadings by capitalising them. It looks wrong and I despise it. I am a husband/father currently dealing with several difficult and stressful life events. This feels worse though. What the fuck is wrong with me?
this week i am mostly crossly remembering of the long-ago misbegotten sneers of the dead: viz this time it's kpunk taking a pop at "99 luftballons", which is in fact GOOD NOT BAD ffs mark
according to wikipedia the average human head weighs about 5kg, meaning you could not send it through royal mail as a small parcel. but we send even quite big books as small parcel all the time
I loved hymn practice at school though, because I love singing with other people. I still sing 'when a knight won his spurs' to my kid every night. It's beautiful. We sing 'for love and for valour' though. They should sing Chas & Dave songs in assembly.
@j_amesmarriott you need to list the ages of everyone in Britain in 1800 in order of youngest to oldest, and the median will be in the value in the middle

Point is, it honestly doesn't matter what issue it's being applied to, the whole 'Those under 25 have underdeveloped brains' argument doesn't hold up any way you slice it. It's often just an easy way of dismissing the valid perspective of younger people. Which isn't good. /end
You have no IDEA how much I have been entertained by making the front cover of an @OnlyOneOf_twt fanzine in the style of TAKE A BREAK magazine. It isn't as good as Sweep's "Take A Sausage" magazine, but nothing could ever be. Might quit my job and become a kpop zine designer?
