last time I saw such a celebration was the Red Wedding in Game of Thrones. Now if they could introduce a bit of that....

Gold Rush White Water. Always loved Gold Rush and really enjoy this too - but.... Fred celebrating their haul of gold "Worth...seventeen thousand dollars". For 4 months work by 4 people and going through fuel, spare parts and so on. Discovery must be subsidising them something rotten to keep them doing this.

It isn't for everyone. I remember giving my old boss the season 1 box set as I thought he would like it (he introduced me to Nighty Night after all) and he was the same - 10 minutes of "what is this all about?" before stopping. Take the episode Thor from season 2 as an example. Hardly laughed at all during it, ended up on the floor at the end. It was all set up for one big laugh at the end. Yesterday's was OK but felt a wee bit forced (Larry, Jeff and Leon with their broken moths talking to the Mexicans was a bit obvious).

Peyton List - I have an old "hottest women in Star Trek" thread somewhere here, and she has just crashed it for me.

Probably the best part - seeing the rage from the gammons online. The folk who just want it to recycle the Tom Baker days over and over again.

I have a feeling that this, or a documentary very much like it, was on the TV about 5 years ago. I think these producers were banking on Barrymore staying on Dancing on Ice.

And there was a Bob Monkhouse joke in the Joker movie: When I was growing up, people would laugh at me when i told them I was going to be a comedian. Well, they're not laughing now.

Old Bob Monkhouse one. The wife and I decided to spice up our sex life. We talked, and she said she would cover herself in melted chocolate, and I would lick it off. The trouble is, she went and bought white chocolate. I'm not too fond of it, it's too rich. I've come to dread hearing her call out from upstairs: "The Milkybars are on me"

Have to agree. It started out well, then went straight in to an obvious plot. I don't mind that so much - we had enough mind-bending nonsense in the Moffatt era.

Enjoyable again. Of course not every episode can be 10/10, but this is now setting up nicely. "The sheer fucking hubris..." I was thinking the same thing, actually. Just rocks up demanding a ship and a crew. Telt tae git.

Watched Joker. Didn't enjoy it all that much to be honest. I know this means I'm some sort of weirdo oddball but it just didn't do it for me.

Back to the Labour leadership. Can anyone explain to me the point of Rebecca Long Bailey? No charisma, no ideas. Comes across as very light (no gravitas at all). I am not one to go in to candidate looks but she seems to scowl all the time, and she wears jackets made for someone three times her size. . This is not good. If she wins Labour are toast for years to come. Lisa Nandy: never heard of her before this but comes across well. Would add: a bit of a wid. Emily Thornberry: nope, another loser. I cannot see how she appeals to anyone. Kier Starmer: the best of a bad bunch. Gravitas and a sharp mind. There is something about him that seems really old fashioned though. if you showed me a photo of him and said "this guy was a Labour politician in 1965" I would believe you.

Joe Swash. Why is this washed up soap actor an the TV all the time? Who likes him?

It exceeded expectations - fantastic! Remember, Star Trek has a history of shows with dreadful pilots, slow starts and then gets better. The exception is Voyager, which was shite from the first minute to the last. Here we have a genuinely engaging pilot. Questions have been asked and I am looking forward to following this. Genuinely considering watching again before Friday.

I for one am thoroughly enjoying this series. The only mis-step for me was the climate change speech at the end of Orphan 55. Everything else has been pure gravy. Yesterday's one was fantastic and really had me guessing. My first thought was that Ben was the Master in disguise. Never thought it was the woman being the Doctor. And I am very pleased that not everything was tied up in an underwhelming bow but allowed time and space to grow. So we have for the new series: Galifrey destroyed by the Master (MIA) Who is the Timeless Child and what has it got to do with anything? A lone cyberman coming at some point Captain Jack probably back for some reason And another mystery Doctor and old-style TARDIS Nice! As Bully Wee Villa said, this is better than the previous terrible arcs because it hasn't been revealed to us in episode 1.

Forces TV. It has all the best shows. Quantum leap, the A team, Knight Rider, V, Space 1999, plus a bunch of war documentaries.

I wish it was all that mattered. We'll be dragged out of the EU, the single market, the customs union and - let's be frank - we'll be a laughing stock because "middle England" likes a toff.

Just watched this a couple of time to be sure I heard it right. She wasn't quoting what anyone said (my first thought). This was just her straight report to the camera. The majority he so deserves...

This election has been the worst case of BBC bias yet. They are acting like a right-wing paper now. Take the "punch" incident. For about 4 hours it was reported widely across the BBC (website, radio, TV and, of course, social media). The story of the kid on the floor was forgotten for this. Then when it emerged it was another Tory lie, they just quietly dropped it. No apology, no coverage of the fact it was a *lie* to the same extent as the lie was originally presented. Just a shrug.

When my son was a baby he went to a private nursery when my wife went back to work. He caught everything - chicken pox, foot and mouth, gastroentoritis, ear infections (the worst!) and more besides. Now 14, he hasn't had a day off school for sickness in about 5 years. When everyone else in the house gets sick, he never seems to catch anything. His immune system must be immense now. It gets better!

I have been watching this horror of a campaign for weeks now and cannot believe this is where we are. of course I am voting SNP - nobody else is in the least bit credible. Tories - Boris will win, but win badly having lied, hidden away from proper scrutiny and employed the worst fake news (I hate that term but it applies). He wins by default because, for folks in England, there is no real alternative. Labour - like the policies, but Corbyn is a loser. Whilst a lot of folk fetishise him (students and self-proclaimed radicals mostly), a lot more cannot stand him. If they had Kier Starmer as leader Labour would be romping this. But they don't. They have Corbyn, Diane Abbott and the rest who come across as incompetent. Lib Dems - they still don't get it. They are unforgiven. Tories will be tories, but the lib dems voted in all the rest too - trebling tuition fees, benefits cap, universal credit, NHS "reform". Their Brexit policy seems undemocratic and Swinson isn't a vote winner. So for me it has to be the SNP. Nicola Sturgeon is far and away better than anyone else standing here.

Halfway through the second season - there is more to this story! Such a great show. Didn't realise David Tennant was the voice of the Lord Commander.

We covering internet ads as well? Because, when I am on certain sites I see certain adverts that are, well, just getting in the way. I mean, who animates these video games for example?

I just re-watched it for the first time. It is much better binge watching it rather than one episode a week.
