This is a demo of our song Sitcom. Written by my late friend Ian. He wrote some great tunes. This one’s my favourite. Please enjoy if you have a couple of minutes. From 2003.

Watching a movie on the train and hoping there are no boobie scenes. Psychomania (1973) - great intro music! #SHOCKtober

My mate bought two kittens and the boy cat made friends with his older dog and they like to hang out and snuggle up to each other. It’s very charming.

“…but probably not the one you were expecting”

I’d really appreciate any reposts of the tune below. Ian went far too soon. He was a brilliant songwriter and I think his work deserves a wider audience. RIP IJ 💔 Thank you x

Finally, the recognition I’ve deserved!

Please do check this out if you have the time. It’s pretty good, despite me being in the band. Nice little pop/rock unit. Ian Lander wrote some lovely songs. Several of them here. He will be greatly missed. Frontman Scott Lavene has a pretty successful solo career these days. Check him out too.

Yesterday’s Antifascist counter protest against a “Nationalist” March which featured actual Nazis and men cosplaying in military gear and stab vests. “Nazi scum” indeed. Herne Bay, Kent.

Adric erasure! 😭

Podcast #239 ("Beating the One-Eyed Servant") is now online. We take a look at First Doctor story “The Ark”, Michael Sheard buys the Rev a pint and Mark misses appearing on HTV News by the merest fraction. diddlydumpodcast.wordpress.com/2026/10/22/d...

Me at the seaside taking care of business with my newly shaved head and sporting my Fourth Doctor snood.

Had a lovely day at the seaside shouting at actual Nazis.

'Excalibur' (acrylic on paper, 2026) by Barnaby Edwards £495 Today's painting (from my current exhibition on fantasy cinema) is inspired by my favourite retelling of the legends of King Arthur. Please share with interested parties! More info here: barnabyedwards.co.uk/myth-and-mag...

Terror of the Zygons premise (that anyone could be a shapeshifting alien, even your mum!) terrified me so much that after watching it I was too scared to go to the toilet that night, and had to piss in a small plastic boat that I hid under my bed.

In 1983, me and a friend spent our school summer holidays hanging out at our local video rental shop. We’d befriended the lone employee, a young chap who, in return for us putting customer’s videos back on the shelves and other minor chores, let us watch whichever film took our fancy on the shop tv

My favourite 3 panels of Judge Dredd from the Judge Death Lives story - Wagner and Bolland at their best. The panels, the text and the speach lines "GAZE INTO THE FACE OF FEAR!" and "GAZE INTO THE FIST OF DREDD!" have stayed with me since I first saw them in 1981 #DayofDredd

So many brilliant artists, so much glorious Dredd art, it’s really hard to choose who’d be my—second place. But first? Yeah, always Ezquerra for me. Whether Dredd still looking butch and top of the City while holding a sausage or…

I remember someone on that site writing a long piece in the comments about how Adric had been introduced by misogynistic writers to shackle Romana, and punish her for being so liberated by saddling her with a child. Entertainingly unhinged.

Beautiful day for a walk around Faversham Creek and the Marshes today.

Someone just said on the radio re Burnham’s speech “I’m surprised to hear him follow through” which has childishly amused me for the afternoon.

Podcast #238 ("The Road to Oldham Pier") is now online. @sukykhakh.bsky.social returns with us from Whooverville 17 to look at 3rd Doctor story "The Daemons".

Gerrit’s turn as Beef in Phantom of the Paradise is sensational. Never really understood how this movie isn’t better known. RIP Beef.

Look what I found!

I can’t help wondering how many bikers the Dalek would be able to take out before they overpowered it? #DoctorWho

We would like to take a moment to wish our dear friend Doc Whom from @diddlydumpodcast.bsky.social a very happy 40th birthday! Have a fantastic day!

Hello you lovely lot! We’re recording again soon and we would really like to know your thoughts and opinions on The Ambassadors OF DEATH! Reply to this thread and we’ll read your comments for the universe to hear! #DoctorWho #Podcast

Overachieving as usual, I balance 13 Indiana Jones novels on my knee and talk to them all with the lovely @toohot4tv.bsky.social on his latest episode. Loved doing this :)

Happy 45th birthday to the best comics panel ever!
