Enjoyed Mr Bates vs the Post Office. A good distilling of the v long, complex story of the appalling miscarriage of justice sub-postmasters endured.

But can we discuss the oddness of Nadhim Zahawi, a sitting MP, playing himself in a dramatisation of a select committee?

Harry Wallop Sathnam Sanghera I believe we have also just passed the point at which the release of “Vienna” by Ultravox is closer in time to the Anschluss than to the present day.

Just had to call the RAC for the first time in years and hate the fact that you now don’t speak to a human, you just get directed to an online form. Would be grim as anything if you broke down alone at night
