Remembering actor Glynn Edwards who died six years ago this month. Glynn had many memorable roles but for a generation he will always be Minder’s Dave the long suffering Winchester Club barman. “On the slate, Dave…” #glynnedwards #minder #winchesterclub Arthur’s 2nd home

Ray came from the then working class. He wasn’t one of “the boys” …except he was……. One of us all…….He didn’t need BAFTA then or now . Loved equally by crew actors and audience.

Thanks BAFTA for your 'in memory of' section. We have lost lots of legends. But, I am a bit upset you didn't include Ray Brooks. He had a long successful career in film & tv & brought happiness to millions of children by narrating Mr Benn.

Cllr Samantha Gethen @Gethens

Statement from Cllr Samantha Gethen: I was asked to leave a SEND community roundtable this morning - not for causing disruption, but because the local Conservative MP, @bhatti_saqib, refused to begin the meeting until I left. I attend North Solihull’s SEND support group as a parent of children with SEND. Yes, I am also an elected Reform councillor - but today I attended as a mother wanting to discuss support for children and families. Rather than allow the meeting to become uncomfortable for the organisers or other parents attending, I chose to leave out of respect for them, and for the significant time and effort that had gone into organising the event for local SEND families. Their priorities should always come before any attempt by the local MP to ostracise me because of my political affiliation. It is deeply disappointing that a non-political family event was turned into a political issue. Excluding a SEND parent from a conversation about their child’s future is wrong. SEND families deserve to be heard, regardless of politics.

The fry-up has been quietly demoted, over the last forty years, from a daily British breakfast to a Saturday indulgence. A hangover meal. A guilty pleasure. The kind of thing you order in a Wetherspoons at half past eleven on a Sunday with a slightly apologetic look at the waitress, on the understanding that you will be having a salad for dinner to make up for it. Your nutrition app flags it. Your doctor sighs at it. The newspaper runs an article every six months explaining that it will kill you. This is one of the great practical jokes of modern British life. The traditional Full English is one of the most nutritionally complete breakfasts a human being can sit down to. Two eggs from a hen that scratched about in a back garden, eating grubs and kitchen scraps. Complete protein, choline, B12, vitamin D, the whole fat-soluble suite delivered in a yolk the colour of a marigold. Two rashers of dry-cured back bacon from a Wiltshire pig. Stable saturated fat, B vitamins, selenium. A pork sausage made that morning with three ingredients by the village butcher. A grilled tomato. Mushrooms cooked in the bacon fat. Black pudding for the iron. A slice of fried bread. A pot of tea strong enough to stand a teaspoon in. This breakfast fuelled the men who dug the coal, laid the railways, fished the North Sea, and walked twelve miles a day delivering the post. Their cardiovascular disease rate was a fraction of ours. Their diabetes rate was a rounding error. Their obesity rate was zero. Then sometime around 1985 we were told this breakfast was killing us. We were instructed, by people in offices, to switch to a bowl of corn flakes with skimmed milk. To a yoghurt with fourteen ingredients. To an oat milk latte. To a green smoothie containing more sugar than a can of Coke. The cardiovascular disease rates climbed. The diabetes rates climbed. The obesity rates climbed. The breakfast did not change. The advice did. The advice was wrong. A plate of eggs, bacon, sausage, and black pudding will outperform any breakfast designed by a wellness brand in a Shoreditch office. It costs less. It contains no seed oil. It has been keeping the British upright since the Iron Age. Your grandfather did not feel guilty about his breakfast. He had bigger things to worry about. So do you. Eat it on a Tuesday. Without apologising.

There's scoring at Wembley then there's this. An overhead kick by John Gayle for @BCFC in 1991 at the Leyland DAF Final as they beat Tranmere. #bcfc #kro
