Radio 4 on Saturdays is almost all politics regrettably. Within the space of a 7 hours there's The Week in Westminster, The News "Quiz", Any (Political) Questions, Any (Political) Answers and Political Thinking.

Sources tell me Gregg Wallace is coming out with a line of underwear for men.

Boy George is 64 and he's got a lot more in store for us.

Ross Clark always appears genuine and kind, and that’s why people love him.

I can’t believe your position on this Katie.

If you don’t like someone or their replies β€œmute” them.

I highly recommend the BBC’s four part series, 7/7: The London Bombings.

Starmer needs to get a grip on the party with the same ruthlessness he used when he busted the gangs.

I have no interest in selfies at any time especially in a gallery. Prefer just to look at the paintings than have my photo with them.

This idea of keeping the UK in aspic is just so pathetic. We'd have never had railways or canals with this lot running things.

Maybe Prince William could give away some of the enormous wealth the family have appropriated, instead of amassing more.

Stereophonic is a good show but at least 30 mins too long. Still enjoyed it and the set & music was amazing.

Loved Notting Hill. What is wrong with a feel-good movie? I rather watch this than some depressing so-called artsy noir trash.

David Hare spouts boiler-plate, left wingery and is wallowing in self-pity, but he’s right about the National Theatre.

Upstart Crow, one of the best-written, clever and funniest shows that anyone has produced.

The Belfast boys have humiliated the British political class. They express the mood of radicalising youth and their live shows are magnificent.

As George Lucas’s β€˜Starship’ Museum Nears Landing, He Takes the Controls

George Lucas’ β€œStarship” museum (really a museum of narrative art in a starship building) opening next year.

I think it’s going to be a major attraction for Los Angeles
