A solution without a problem. Channel4 was the best of all worlds: a public service, paid for by advertisers. Programming for public good not private profit. We don’t need more US-style streamers - a bloated bubble soon to burst - but we’ll miss TV owned by & for us when its gone

The week in Tory MPs so far: one convicted of molesting a minor, another having to apologise for defending said paedophile, PM and chancellor convicted of breaking the COVID laws they wrote. And it’s only Fucking Tuesday.

Word of the day is 'maw-worm' (19th century): one who insists that they have done nothing wrong, despite evidence to the contrary.

If the Prime Minister didn't know a birthday party was violating his own fucking lockdown rules maybe it's not a great idea to have him in charge of a country during a fucking war

Hate it when older actors moan about upcoming generation(s). Experience has always been that their talent, enthusiasm & new ways of thinking are reinvigorating & refreshing. These 4 prove it - what a kind, inspiring, positive, resourceful bunch. #ALRA #actors #podcast

Saw #OperationMincemeat Operation Mincemeat SpitLip Riverside Studios for 2nd time last night & fell in love all over again. Tighter & slicker now, but still an utter utter joy! #Godthatsbrilliant

Saw this yesterday - if it does more dates, make sure you catch it. Funny, fascinating show about the spaces lost and in between, both within & without. Helen Tennison Brighton Fringe #lionhouse #doggerland

Hurrah for understudies - Mark Middleton smashed it last night in David Eldridge 💙 Middle National Theatre Beautiful, heart-breaking play. @Rushbrook71 also magnificent, obvs.

I just believe that God was in much better trim when he created women.

Come on you pricks, who's next?

Word of the day is 'filipendulous' (19th century): hanging by a thread.

With this lot there’s always a tweet.

THEATRE TWITTER - we're giving away tables, chairs, wood, foam, paint, props, fabric, our sanity - for free at NDT Broadgate. First come, first served, available until 4pm tomorrow. Retweet and tell your friends and foes!

As a tiny, unfunded company, we're just dreaming of our next show, which seems too financially perilous right now. How are other people making fringe theatre work at the mo?

If you’re a Tory supporting Sunak in his mission to make students do “proper” subjects which lead to jobs, you should have your TV, radio, streaming services, cinema, theatre, opera and arts access removed. Spend your time appreciating the work of accountants and loss adjusters.

During lockdowns heard a lot about theatre artists standing together. Yesterday saw a Tweet saying, "do we really need another production of X?" Actually agree that we probably don't, but what happened to all for 1? And theatre's a broad church (or should be), not just one thing.

Richard knows.
