Current revision as of 18:03, 22 October 2020

To-do this weekend. 1) Change clocks. 2) Check smoke alarm. 3) Watch the first performance night on Strictly Come Dancing (BBC1, Sat) and the return of It Takes Two (BBC2, from Mon). 4) Remember to avoid a new series of Quote... Unquote (R4, Mon), so bad it's bad.
