Did you know one of the first and most prolific early film directors (and the first person to write, direct and produce their own narrative film) was a woman? Alice Guy-Blache died 50 years ago today and barely anyone knows who she is. That needs to change

Hard not to eyeroll at the smug people tweeting about teenagers discovering Kate Bush from Stranger Things like you didn't discover David Bowie from Labyrinth.

Channel 4 is showing Zelensky's comedy show, Servant of the People, on Sunday. In it, he plays a normal guy who accidentally becomes the president of Ukraine... I reviewed it. Watching it will make you feel slightly insane (but it's good!)

Oof #Together on BBC Two is good. James McAvoy and Sharon Horgan are both incredible. A drama about a bickering couple sounds tedious - but the Kelly/Daldry/Friedman/Horgan/McAvoy dream talent shines through.

Well done Bafta. Save Me and Save Me Too never got the viewing figures they deserved. Hopefully more people will whack it on after this.

Watched Bo Burnham's Inside now I'm watching What because I've not really seen his comedy before (I'm old OK). He's certainly improved hasn't he?

Not sure where the Irish Matt Le Blanc meme has come from. The man is stocky, not particularly tall and his hair used to be almost black. That there is a Welsh uncle.

Homo whassity? That phrase that Steve just said is "runs of homozygosity". It means, in idiot terms, that there's a chunk of DNA that matches both Jo Davidson and Tommy Hunter and that chunk of DNA can only have come from both parents having that same chunk themselves (thread)
