Politics, sarcasm, old tele stuff and sport.
The static camera needs to be available to FOM so they can show the infringement as the onboards are useless to show it.
It's over the crest at the top of Raidillon that he's been pinged for, and it looked extremely close. The onboard doesn't show the rear tyres, and the the incline means you can't tell from the trackside replay either #F1 #BelgianGP
This is the unintended consequences of the law.
Wikipedia is currently in a legal battle with the UK government to try and stop the platform being censored in the UK - or even completely blocked - thanks to the Online Safety Act.
A quite frightening story - was probably 2 or 3 eps too long and could have been condensed. Something maybe @TalkingPicsTV could pick up? Friday nights at 9pm?
With the 60s over, LWT goes full dystopian with a long-forgotten series The Guardians. A puppet PM who suggests "democracy is a form of group suicide", rule enforced by the paramilitary Guardians of the realm. The series was considered by the ITA unsuitable for NI transmission.
Is @tobyanstis ok? Someone at Heart Dance is playing a mad remix with Radio X at the mo... 😳
I'm wondering if @lolly_AnnaK was the last person in the UK to have had a top 40 hit with the title in Latin? 🤔
BBC NEWS / AFP / BBC NEWS / REUTERS STATEMENT: “We are desperately concerned for our journalists in Gaza, who are increasingly unable to feed themselves and their families." "They are now facing the same dire circumstances as those they are covering."
I hope that a Nottinghamshire MP is aware that Perverting the Course of Justice has a maximum of life imprisonment if found guilty.
Has @S4C managed to extend their Tour de France coverage going forward for next year?
Was a great piece of journalism that probably was a difficult subject to get past the lawyers. Why decent FTA coverage is important in sport.
Thanks to everyone who has thought kind thoughts about my small contribution to the Tour coverage over the years. My most important item since my first Tour in 1997 is in tomorrow night’s rest day programme (8pm, ITV4). Tune in, if you can.
Next Sunday: lap 2 'Caution for debris' and it's just biscuit crumbs on the track. #NASCAR
🚨 BREAKING: Sesame Street's Cookie Monster will serve as Grand Marshal for the 2025 Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The appearance is part of a nationwide @sesamestreet tour that will take the iconic characters to events across the United States. #NASCAR
Average summer temp and a heatwave are two very different things. But thanks to the US pulling out of the Paris Agmt we will continue to suffer with climate change.
I'm headed to England and Wales late next week, and as much as my wife loves it there, I'm bracing for Europe's inability to cope with completely unpredictable events like "summer."
Joshua Jones - both English and Welsh versions sung by the great @malpope
Name a TV series with a great theme song or tune. Go!
There's plenty of great live motorsport available on non F1 weekends.
Sundays without F1 😴 #F1 #VCARB
When you only see this tweet and realise that @itvcycling is going to be a must watch at 7pm tonight!

Someone didn't heed this advice.
⚠️ Safety is everyone's concern 📢 DO NOT TOUCH THE RIDERS. 📢 DO NOT USE FLARES. 📢 KEEP YOUR PHONE BEHIND THE BARRIERS. 📢 DON'T STAND ON THE ROAD. 📢 DO NOT OBSTRUCT RIDERS WITH FLAGS Just don't do anything stupid. #TDF2025
And Fineprice, St Clements Coast Road.
Revel in this 1977 advert for Benest's of Millbrook, presented by 'Major' Benest himself - imagine Bernard Matthews as a Winston Churchill stan and you're halfway there. Shown in ITV's Channel region, Benest's became a local legend. And it's the best thing you'll see all day.
As penalty shoot outs go; it was messy and frustrating and not great to watch. But... who gives a shit. England win. 🏴 #Euro2025
