Sally Wainwright’s superb, bleak, utterly believable portrait of the Brontë siblings is back on the BBC iplayer. Every choice in it seems to me right and brave - even the occasional use of anachronistic vocabulary. And the casting is matchless.

Sheila Hancock stole the show! More please
Making topical comedy at bleak news times can be so tough but, in my book, it’s thank heavens for the return of @haveigotnews where Ian and Paul work magic to conjure laughs when there are none. At 9pm with wonderful Miles Jupp and Sheila Hancock - and me trying to host. @BBCOne

Last run before the great north run. I’ve only had 4 weeks to train so steady away but excited to be running for the excellent Company of Others doing incredible work across the north east. At 93% of target so if you fancy pushing it over would be lush.
