We've told you about Tori's sporting prowess, and at number 5 in the world, she is not doing badly! The boys have a hamster.Script 2It was snowing. It was always snowing at Christmas. December, in my memory, is white as Lapland, although there were no reindeers. But there were cats. Patient, cold and callous, our hands wrapped in socks, we waited to snowball the cats. Sleek and long as jaguars and horrible-whiskered, spitting and snarling, they would slide and sidle over the white back-garden walls, and the lynx-eyed hunters, Jim and I, fur-capped and moccasined trappers from Hudson Bay, off Mumbles Road, would hurl our deadly snowballs at the green of their eyes.Script 311 a.m. Office. Oh my God. Daniel Cleaver just sent me a message. Message Jones: You appear to have forgotten your skirt. As I think is made perfectly clear in your contract of employment, staff are expected to be fully dressed at all times. CleaveHah! Undeniably flirtatious.

Notice the chairs: separate, rigid, identical. Students sat in them for hours at a time. Yes, I know—barbaric. And despite having access to global knowledge networks, they still memorised dates… on paper. Yet in their own chaotic way, they were innovative. They pushed the boundaries of medicine, climate science, artificial intelligence - and they weren’t afraid to imagine futures they’d never see. But the 2020's were also an age of fear.Script 2It's definitely not a mint that's been left on your pillow - checking in for RAMSAY'S HOTEL HELL at ten to three.

It just depends who you’re talking to! He’s been one of the voices of Channel 4 in the UK since 2005, spending nearly twenty years crafting the art of saying “Countdown is next” in increasingly creative ways! He was one of the launch voices of More4, 4Seven and 4Music, spent a decade as the station voice of BBC 6Music and was the station promo voice of Manchester United TV for an awful long time, which is quite an achievement when he knows precisely boff-all about football. He’s been the literal voice of the earth at the Science Museum and drove around the world’s capital cities for a Smart Car web series. He's also been a vocal advocate for fair pay in the creative industries and has spent more than two decades making British broadcasting just a little bit warmer, a little bit funnier, and occasionally a lot more chaotic.

Ringed, bearded, and harp seals glide through cracks in the ice, surfacing for air where the water meets frozen sky.Above us — the Arctic’s apex predator. The polar bear. It depends entirely on this frozen platform to hunt seals. As the ice retreats earlier each year, that balance — between predator and prey, ice and ocean — begins to fracture.Script 2Presenting Empiricon Stewart Racing.Two teamwork powerhouses focused around the same goal - to unleash the full potential of a legendary race team.Empiricon creates software that transforms teamwork and makes possible together what would be impossible alone.And today, they join forces with an icon of Formula 1 to usher in a new era of racing.
