So tonight I fell asleep watching that pandemic documentary and when I woke up it was the Top of the Pops documentary and for a moment I thought this whole thing would be solved by Pan’s People. And now I can’t sleep I’m so excited.
I’m delighted to tell you I’ve written a book! It’s about growing up in 90s suburbia, overcoming shame, coming out & coming to terms with being an outsider (and the laughs along the way!) I’m excited for you to read it. Pre order for 12th Nov!
Thanks
@SundayBrunchC4
for having me today!! Such an honour to co-host.
@TimLovejoy
is one of the most generous people I know & does an incredible job of effortlessly making everyone feel welcome. Along with such a lovely team. Delighted to be on with so many people I admire. X
I’ll tell you what’s horrifying as a gay on Halloween: when you’ve forgotten to buy treats, there’s suddenly a knock at the door and you have to hand over a panettone.

After sitting on the sidelines 🤣🤣 for so long I’m delighted to be finally rolling up my sleeves in the tent for The Great Stand Up To Cancer Bake Off. Coming this spring!

He's very familiar with a showstopper and a soggy bottom, but will his time on An Extra Slice get him the apron?

Now I hope you don’t mind my saying so but I do think it’s a good idea to register to vote. It takes 5 minutes out of your Sunday night and you do it right here:

EVERY WEEK Call The Midwife = 😭😭😭! And every time it’s SO good. All of life’s complexity and hope and sadness and everything all wrapped up in a starched uniform and a Vanessa Redgrave Voiceover. Oh god I’m still 😭.
#CallTheMidwife
Thanks very much for all the nice comments regarding
#YoureFired
I can’t wait to get started! A lot of you have been asking (actually, literally no one) how I got the job so here’s what happened:
Oh hey you guys so I’m on
@HaveIGotNews
For You tonight. I’ve never been on it before so I was relieved to be on it after such a quiet news week😂. It was such a fun experience made doubly so by Paul, Ian and these great guys
@AyeshaHazarika
and
@GaryLineker
Can’t tell you how over the moon I am to be on the cover of this month’s Attitude. I’ve always looked up to this magazine as a beacon of positivity in our troubled world. Thanks for the lovely interview about my book and hosting this year’s Attitude Awards online on 1st December!
Now don’t be cross but I’m on Would I Lie To You at 9 and then QI at 9.30. I didn’t plan it ok?? WILTY got moved from November ‘cos of the election or something. Anyway they were fun to do hope you enjoy.
@WILTY_TV

What a lovely day at
@WestHam
yesterday! Thanks
@PrideOfIrons
lgbt+ supporters group for the gifts! Does it suit me?! Great to see inclusitivity in football. Thanks
@karren_brady
for the warm welcome and
@markmcadamtv
for taking me there.
feel the same - welcome to just enjoy the football whoever they are? Sorry if I’m so ‘unbearably different’ for some - I wasn’t putting on an act though, I was just being myself. I suppose that’s the importance of the campaign - some feel angry
if I’m honest: as far as I know there isn’t a right or wrong way to respond to goals at a game, I was just being myself, not knowing much about football but still enjoying it. I guess I wasn’t doing a conventional report but my response is still valid and everyone should surely
Feeling overwhelmed by heteronormative family life at this point? May I suggest watching Paris is Burning if you haven’t already? Currently on
@NetflixUK
Then go downstairs, tell your family you’re a child of the House of Labeija & tell your mum you’re now the mother of the house
Last episode of
#ExtraSlice
tonight! Hope you enjoy it. It’s been such a fun time I feel very lucky to have been involved and so lucky to work with the truly brilliant Jo Brand. Thanks to all the studio bakers and their ‘wonderful’ bakes too ☺️☺️!!

Guess who’s on Saturday Kitchen tomorrow at 10? Clue: it’s me. Do you like open brick work? You’re going to love it! Will you send me to food heaven or food hell????
#saturdaykitchen
@BBCOne
It’s tonight!! 10pm on Channel 4. Hope you enjoy my stand up special. Filmed at the London Palladium in front of my mum and dad (...and also an actual audience)
As we know Eastenders has had to stop filming but fear not as I am ready to carry on the storylines from home having seen my first episode this evening!

Just to say thanks for the lovely messages about my stand up special ‘Absolutely’ on Channel 4. It’s been really overwhelming! I’m very proud of it and I’m so glad you like it too. If you haven’t seen it yet it’s still available here
#tomallenabsolutely
V proud of this pilot I made. But what is it? Well it’s a makeover for a local restaurant, a game show for local hotspots & a musical finale with local choir & colliery band! Martin Kemp pops in! Not stand up - something different, like me. Tom Allen Goes to Town, Weds, 9pm, ch4
Thanks for the lovely comments on tonight’s
@TippingPointITV
- I was very proud to support my local hospice at St Chirstopher’s
@StChrisHospice
- and if you have a local hospice it’s great to support them if you can!
‘To Melbourne’ = serving a shot of sparkling water with your croissant. Also I’ve heard waiters here call sparkling water ‘frizzante’ which I thought was impossibly glamorous. ‘Still or Frizzante?’ Can you imagine?
Excited for you to watch
@Channel4
at 9! Met wonderful people & went to brilliant places. Hope it makes you smile in these strange times! Here’s me with Tunji & his family who looked after me in Wakefield & run a beautiful local cafe / delivery service:

Why do some TV personalities have to sound CAMP. Not a natural accent. Most lesbians and gays act and speak naturally, but this minority think it necessary to be camp. Why?
Time for another episode of Locked in with Tom Allen (already?! 😭😭) and this episode it’s all about Style!! (Listen out for the heavy breathing of the camera operator!) PART 2 follows!!!

My friend

has written a book and I’m SO proud of her. It’s about endemetriosis which effects 1 in 10 women. ‘Women’s Problems Are Everyone’s Problems’. A joyous book and a lifeline for anyone you know with the condition.

Black lives matter. Now is the time to read and hear what needs to be heard, see what needs to be seen, if we haven’t already. Here is one place to start:

We must stand up and speak up.
And just to reassure you after yesterday Linda is doing MUCH better and looking forward to a hefty workout! Don’t forget to let me know what else you’d like to see covered in Locked In with Tom Allen!
