Celebrating Sue Townsend's wit and observational genius creating #AdrianMole, it's also important to remember her passionate campaigning against poverty - as Roy Hattersley did with this lovely response to an article she wrote (which is quoted in its replies).

Do CRT TV programmes contain more terrifying children than TV terrifies? Hannah and Pete have been very brave for tackling some of this week's shows.

She's on OTHER podcasts?!

My absolute favourite campus-life drama. It is simultaneously spot on as to what it's like to work at a university and utterly, utterly bonkers. Also, I've been on committees with all these characters.

I listened to this earlier today and I thought it was brilliant. Three series I’ve never seen (including one I’d never heard of) but now I really want to watch them all.

We challenged ourselves to give a taste of three espionage shows in about an hour, and it was a blast! As a complete newbie there was so much to take in. Head to @cathoderays.bsky.social ...but watch your back 🥷

I massively enjoyed doing this: watched episodes of shows I’d never seen before. Plus bonus Michael Powell content!

With a gap in the 2026 Christmas schedule for a returning children's favourite, how about a tender for plague victim prankster Nobody, a sepia psycho ghost girl, or a Happy Day of layline-fuelled psychosis?

I spy @unamccormack.bsky.social parachuting in to Ray's to talk spies! Leonard Rossiter wants to retire but Death Is A Good Living, an electrifying episode of Espionage, and the arrival of The Sandbaggers. 🥷 Podbean tinyurl.com/3a9s3bd8 ⚛️ Spotify tinyurl.com/2p69h7kn 🕵️ YouTube tinyurl.com/3w624f8y

I hope Hull History Centre won't mind me sharing this lovely letter from Roy Hattersley's papers, on the sad news of his passing aged 93. RIP.

Andrew Davies’s defining TV series was a surreal parable starring Peter Davison, Barbara Flynn and David Troughton
