Piers Morgan didn't storm off TV-AM because he's a snowflake. During his time in the US, he clocked that news-as-entertainment = ratings, and imported it. Storming-off is part of his toolkit for going viral. Tweeting about it is like booing a wrestler - you're part of the show.

Convalescing by watching 'Get Back' again, and struck by the bit at the end of day 4 when they play 'Rock and Roll Music'. Peter Jackson intercuts it with footage of them play it on their '66 tour, which looks like an ancient artefact. IT'S TWO AND A HALF YEARS AGO!

I wish I still had a radio show so I could say ‘You couldn’t make it up, could you?’ and then do a timecheck into the adverts.

The grooves people leave on your life: I once interviewed the actor Jason Isaacs. Beforehand, he was talking about loo roll: “If I got shit on my forearm, I wouldn’t use dry tissue to wipe it off!” No way he remembers me, but I think of him literally every time I wipe my arse.

He was like, “We met 12 yrs ago. I love you now more than ever”, I was like, “I have no idea what to do with that many flowers”.

I've had the itch to do some playing-music/talking-nonsense radio again for a while, and my friends at  @unionjackradio are kindly letting me scratch it. All next week, I'm hosting the breakfast show on SIX of their stations, at the civilised time of 7-9am
