Sunshine on Leith, the greatest football song on the planet. One of the happiest days of my life with my big brother Graeme and my son, Jimmy. Such an emotional occasion, it will live with us forever

Check out the final episode of Breaking Down Walls! ๐
@Louis_Tomlinson
and
@gordonsmart
have a great chat about some of the inspiration behind the album
An important reminder that the name Martin Branning isnโt a laughing matter for a lot of people. Especially the victims of his/their catfishing, blackmail, coercion and sexual harassment.
Looking forward to making my debut hosting

Told my dad about the new gig and he said โbetter get a spray tan, son.โ Good.
See you bright and early at 6am, 29th and 30th December.
Good Morning Britain!
Some more behind the scenes stuff with
@Louis_Tomlinson
from Wemberlee last week. Been loving working with the boy wonder again. It has been ten years since I first booted his baws after he joined a band who went on to do pretty well... new album
#walls
is out next week...
Iโve got a wee bit of news to share... Iโm leaving
@RadioX
after a brilliant few years working with great friends, bands I love and the amazing extended family who have joined me on the Evening Show and Smart on Sunday since 2011
So sad waking up to news about Taylor Hawkins. Had some amazing experiences with him over the years
@RadioX
and back in the day on Bizarre. Hereโs a BTS video I filmed of his warm-up in Manchester in the summer of 2018 before

So here we go! New show
@bbc5live
starts this Sunday, 8-10pm.
Iโve been the supply teacher across the network for over a year, but so chuffed to now have my name above the door with a great team behind the scenes.
Itโs an absolute scandal
@JoshTaylorBoxer
wasnโt on terrestrial television tonight. Incredible achievement. One of the greatest ever British fighters. The bigger the stage, the better he is. Roll on Edinburgh Castle or Easter Road for the next one...
I thought my intensive 1-2-1 coaching regime in lockdown was giving my boy a glimmer of hope of playing football at a decent standard. Just watched this and retired us both on the spot.
Paul Burrell. What has Scotland got? Oil? A monster in a lake? Yep, thatโs all. We also have a natural, in-built c*nt-o-meter, and you have broken the dial.
This really has to be seen to be believed.
'I mean for goodness sakes...Scotland, by itself? How is it going to survive?'
The Jeremy Vine show on Channel 5, 25th June 2019.
Part 1/2:
Six years late to the party... just binge watched The Fall without interruption or distraction. Incredible. So many brilliant performances. Norn Iron has crime and drama sewn up with this and Line of Duty. AC12 would have been sniffing around ACC Burns.
As Fife royalty, my wife Kate Smart (formerly Leishman), would like to announce her decision to take a step back from her role as the Provostโs daughter. The constant intrusion of the Dunfermline and Fife Free Press has become too much to handle. We have relocated to Perthshire.
This is jaw-dropping. The virus has hit his club more than most? Itโs not another league table. It has hurt everyone equally. It definitely hits you more than most when you piss off to Dubai for a knees-up and come back with a dose of the Billy Rae in the squad ๐คฏ

to host the Late Show from January 1st. Thanks so much to everyone who stuck by me during the dark days, the listeners and the gang in Salford for offering so much support and encouragement. Onwards!
Itโs great growing up at the same time as

What about, โIโm really sorry that my actions have diverted attention away from what is vitally important - keeping people alive and stopping the spread of a lethal virus. Protecting the NHS and our most vulnerable.โ Just say SORRY! And mean it.
A first in London this afternoon. Bought a bottle of water in Tesco Express on Clifton Road. The lady on the till sneezed on us both, then hocked the rest up and spat it in the bin next to her. When I told her she was fucking disgusting she told me I was rude for swearing ๐๐ป๐คข
Bit of news to share today. Sadly, Iโve been overlooked for the role of Chairman and Vice Chair of Handforth Parish Council. I have however, signed up to host a new show on a brand new channel with a team of talented people. Here we go! First guest, Jackie Weaver.
Iโve watched this 14k times this morning. Nobody, absolutely nobody on earth, can swear quite like a Scotsman. Textbook use of the strongest of them all by Big Tam ๐
This time last year we lost our pet dog, Fletcher. Weโve really missed him this year, could have done with his company in 2020. Big love to anyone who has been through the loss of a pet. Itโs an acute pain when it happens, but the memories are so special x
Desperately underwhelmed by Hibs right now. Great hospitality. Lovely big screens. Fancy advertising hoardings. Murder on the pitch. Dire recruitment. Huge questions about the manager. Do not like the pre or post match interviews. Run of form awful. Selection bizarre. Character?

12 mins left of my 30s. Decade started with newborn son and sleepless nights. It finishes in isolation, with nodule/voice woe and more sleepless nights... at least the home schooling is going well (see exhibit A). Choppy water right now but we will get through it, eh? Night all x
Absolutely thrilled to make my debut for
@HibernianFC
today. Sadly not on the pitch, but hosting Hibs TV comes a close second. Especially with the main man Yogi Hughes. Helps when Hibs win 3-0, might have to make it a regular gigโฆ

The final pay-off for 2020, riddled with Covid after a few trips to London in December trying to get working again. Tested positive after showing symptoms a few days after I got back last weekend. Iโve been in isolation since...
Ryanโs greeting. Iโm greeting. ๐ญ ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ we are going to a major championships. This is sensational. Amazing worlds from Christie here. Unreal.
This has turned my stomach today. Truly pathetic high school behaviour. Perhaps the FM weighed up the cost in LIVES of dangerously ambiguous messaging and thought it wise to stick with clear, decisive, unequivocal instructions? โOoh, saving lives to further Indy cause are we?โ ๐คฏ
ToTP 1996. I think that might have been the best year of my life. What a year to be 16. Oasis, Manics, Kula Shaker, Faithless, Space, Blackstreet, Gina G, Mark Morrison, Babybirdโฆ that was some T in The Park that year ๐ฎ
HNY everyone. Went for a wander to get my lungs working again. This is the view over Loch Leven, Fife and across to the Pentland Hills behind Edinburgh. East Lothian and Leith lies to the left of Benarty. This place is my medicine. Big love from the Smarts up the hill๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ

If anything sums up how little this govt knows about normal punters and pub culture in this country, itโs this. Not a single person in the process of this pish being signed off said, โThatโs 20 for fuckโs sake...โ Letโs all drink till 20pm ๐ ๐คก ๐ป
Businesses selling food or drink, including bars, pubs and restaurants, must be closed at 10pm.
All food and drink must be served at a table. After 10pm it's takeaway deliveries only.

Watching ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ ladz getting on a flight to Scotland for a stag. Pished at 11am wearing See-You-Jimmy outfits - cos thatโll go down well. โGeez, how long is this flight? Two hours to Jockland?โ You just know the one who is going home on Sunday with fewer teeth than he left with.
Anthony Joshuaโs next opponent should be Big Duncan Ferguson. Imagine? Pishing rain in The Raploch after kicking out time. Thatโs worth ยฃ26.99 PPV, the licence fee, Netflix, Amazon Prime, BT Sport, Spotify, ITunes and all the bongo channels combined ๐ฅ
Love the days where Hibs win, Scotland win (away) and Iโve got a new job. Happens about once every 18 years. Will savour today.... Scotland truly inspirational today - enjoy tonight

My dad is a 66-year-old GP. We worry about him at the moment, itโs not the best time of his life to be facing this challenge.

Itโs incredible Andy Murray ever made a return to competitive tennis after sacrificing his body over the years. Itโs mind bending to consider what professional athletes suffer in pursuit of greatness. What an incredible legacy, even if he doesnโt make Wimbledon. Love the man ๐พ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ

Mr Guy Hawksford. All 5ft 7in of him, my physics teacher. Passed away last month. In 2004 he saved lives by spotting the early signs of the tsunami in Thailand. He saved colleaguesโ lives when he was an engineer in Africa sensing trouble with Idi Amin. Never say โif onlyโ RIP Guy
Pleased our mentality is different. First time away at Tynecastle with 3000 fans, after three lockdowns and 18 months of misery. Imagine they had walked off without a clap for the fans? ๐ค
