If you live in the vicinity of Kentish Town, I'm doing an illustrated talk (aka 'cheerfully rabbiting on') about producing Father Ted, in aid of the @SanktusWelfare charity, on November 26th at 7pm. It'll be based on my book, 'Picnic on Craggy Island'.

Replying to @meralhece
They are not ignoring it. The fact they have been charged and will stand trial has been reported but there are strict pre trial reporting restrictions in the UK.

My colleague and friend @GazTheJourno is a man of many talents, who knows as much about guns as he does about transport policy. Take a coffee break and dip into the colourful world of riffle shooting. I found it reassuring to know an ear, nose and throat doctor had such good aim. telegraph.co.uk/sport/2026/0…

The legend that is Mick Brown has called me ‘great’. I’ll take that but the truth is what’s great is our podcast. Third episode out now and final one by the end of the week. The compelling story of one of the world’s most wanted men, how we caught him and what happened next…

This is William 'Basil' Burns. He's the hitman who came to my home and threw sulphuric acid in my face in 2015. He's due to be released from prison on Wednesday. 1/3

Pat Tillman was shot 3 times in the back of the head from 10m by a fellow soldier after he started speaking publicly against the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. And we dilute his memory on purpose each year. Makes me sick.

I did this podcast with the legendary @mickbrownwriter. We found one of the world’s most wanted men seven years ago. But that wasn’t the end of the story. Just the beginning. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as me and Mick enjoyed making it podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcas…

High time the police revealed all their evidence and CCTV footage so that randoms on the internet can know everything about the investigation. Get those Jay Slater TikTok sleuths involved too

You don’t need to directly name victims of abuse to be breaking the law, you can jigsaw identify them - I hope those who continue to do so - despite multiple warnings are prosecuted- all they’re doing is putting victims off coming forward, and for what? To feed their own ego?
