Tonight, folks!! #hernehillfreefilmfestival 8.45 - see you there! #BusterKeaton freefilmfestivals.org/event/the-gene…

That’s an awful lot of flowery words just to say: “I lost my job because I’m a tax-dodging wanker.”

Hi Patrick Spence James Strong Little Gem TV ITV

After your powerful drama about the #PostOfficeScandal , we would like to speak with you about the hugely devestating #ExcludedUK scandal that has now been swept under the carpet in Parliament.

Another Cinna Neil Brand 🇺🇦 Prof. Frank McDonough BBC4 transmission schedules over the past few days are a better guide...

Steve Albini talking to me about Kraftwerk's Autobahn - along with John Grant and Public Enemy's Hank Shocklee. Three of my favourite ever interviews for BBC4's Sound of Song #SteveAlbini

Ian Hislop cheered ''This is specifically not allowed... Mansour has come to Britain & given the Tories a huge amount of money & he immediately gets a knighthood from Rishi Sunak. That seems to me straightforwardly corrupt. Shouldn't they both be in jail?' mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

It's also his brother Gordon's birthday which in a typically Bennettian manner AB discusses in his essays.

A very happy 90th birthday to Alan Bennett. It was a huge honour for BBC Singers to work with him in 2020. At the time he told me about the project he was working on about a performance of Gerontius - now in production, it promises to be utterly brilliant bbc.co.uk/bbcfilm/films/…

I will be sorry to see Nadhim Zahawi step down as an MP. I've always admired his ability to avoid almost as much tax as my wife.

A huge loss to music. I first saw his band Big Black around ‘87, and his production and sound recording work has run through decades of records since. A talk he did SXSW a few years back showed integrity with that combination of fiercely opinionated and humble at the same time.

What the hell have we done to ourselves? It’s insanity.

Imagine the shock when this Government finds out no one is above the law - not even them

Genuinely interested in whether there are any Tory MPs who Keir Starmer wouldn’t welcome to the Labour Party, regardless of their voting record or how extreme their views are.

9 May 1934. Alan Bennett was born in Leeds. He rose to fame via the satirical revue, Beyond the Fringe, in 1960. His later work includes the film The Madness of King George, the series of monologues Talking Heads and the play and subsequent film of The History Boys.
