I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass. And I'm all out of bubblegum.

As a kid I always wanted to be invisible. As an adult I discovered you just have to get on a bicycle and no one can see you at all.

For those wanting to see a concession speech, this one by John McCain — congratulating Obama in 2008 — is worth watching again. See how he faces down the boos from his own supporters. Very few greater moments of humility.

This is really strange. Donald Trump announces that he is "building a wall in Colorado, a really big one, that you can't get over, you can't get under." But Colorado has no border with Mexico. WATCH THE PRESENTER'S REACTION!

It's so ironic that in the late seventies my parents saw punk rock as dangerous, whereas the real danger was Jimmy Savile and Rolf Harris.

As yet another story emerges of an alleged Downing Street party, let's remember the people who DID obey the rules. This footage shows Craig and Paul Wright being told they couldn't comfort their grieving mother Barbara at their father's funeral.

Thank-you for the kind messages about my father, who died yesterday. I can't begin to describe how much I loved him. He gave all his children the confidence to follow whatever path we wanted in life, and whatever we did, he was there applauding us. Above all he gave us his time.

Boris Johnson has refused to follow the other six leaders who have taken part in the leader interviews . His staff constantly told my producers — until this morning — that he was "very likely" to come on. Today we were told he couldn't, and no reason was given.

Leaving train with teenage daughter, I say: “The guy next to you. Do you know who that was?” “No.” “One of the Prime Minister's top advisors. And the reason he was so busy on his phone was probably because of Brexit.” “Dad, I saw the screen. He was playing Candy Crush.”

If Buddy Holly were alive today, he'd be 82. Instead he died in 1959 — sixty years ago today — "the day the music died." The Big Bopper, Ritchie Valens and the pilot also died. They were heading for Fargo. Holly hired the plane after heating problems developed on his tour bus.

On 8 July libelled me by alleging that I was the BBC presenter at the heart of a story in The Sun that day. He has now acknowledged that he was wrong, and has apologised. At my request, he has also agreed to pay £1,000 to rather than paying damages.

I can see that a number of people on here don't like — maybe even loathe — the British royal family. But surely this is the very last day you should be saying it. Save your anger for another time.

My colleague Sir John Curtice has a brain the size of Cornwall. But he also has the ability to make things really, really simple (this is unusual). So take a look at what he thinks this election is all about, because this clip makes it all clear:

My brilliant neighbour Joey is a mental health nurse. Last night her bike was stolen. It turned up on Gumtree - but when she gave police the name and address of the thief, they said they couldn't help because her investigative work would make it entrapment. This is NUTS.

Just to say I'm very much looking forward to hosting my radio show on Monday — whoever the “BBC Presenter” in the news is, I have the same message for you as Rylan did earlier: it certainly ain't me.

Dear Germany, Thank-you for a great game of football last night. But I am very sorry we booed your national anthem. That should not have happened; it was embarrassing for our country. Love from England

I never met anyone who didn’t love George Alagiah. He was compassionate, totally switched on, and really funny. He was one of the best TV reporters there’s ever been, but he had no ego. I was lucky enough to work with him in the Johannesburg bureau 25 years ago and I saw the…

Help me understand this. £££s will be delivered to people on PAYE. Okay, but what about plumbers, plasterers, handymen, painters & decorators, electricians? The stress levels in that sector are monumental. Forgive me if I missed the detail on that. #selfemployed

Best moment of 2018? Took my daughter, 11, to see Bohemian Rhapsody. When we get home she locks herself away with the piano and then two hours later asks me to come and listen

I'm not impressed with people who respond to the attack on Jacob Rees-Mogg by saying loudly "Well I've never heard of Stormzy." Ignorance is not something to be proud of. Find out about him.

I apologise for the phrase I used earlier on the radio. While interviewing Scotland's oldest bagpiper, Billy McVie, 93, I told him: “I have got plenty of puff if you run out.” I now understand that means “I’ve got a shedload of ganja if you’ve smoked all yours.”

I'm very sad to hear that one of the Eggheads has died. Dave “Tremendous Knowledge” Rainford, famous for being banned from pub quiz machines in Manchester, was the best company after a recording: always fun and sociable. I never saw him angry or ungenerous, not once. RIP

I’m starting to think the BBC Presenter involved in the scandal should now come forward publicly. These new allegations will result in yet more vitriol being thrown at perfectly innocent colleagues of his. And the BBC, which I’m sure he loves, is on its knees with this. But it…

100,000 people have flown into the UK since lockdown started on March 23, yet we are only now quarantining people who arrive. Why now, why not on March 23?

This is how the human race ends, everybody. We cover hedges with nets. We get permission to build flats because there are no birds. Then we live in the flats and feel pleased that no birdsong wakes us in the morning. Then we die. Sometimes I hate us.

I'm not down on Meghan and Harry, who in many ways I think have done a brave thing by trying to make their own way in the world. But I can't understand why any couple with a young child would want to live in this monstrosity, especially while campaigning for a cleaner planet

Just to say, if it was Scotland in the final and not England, I would be getting 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 flags in, asking about a kilt, singing YES SIR I CAN BOOGIE and generally going crazy for the team. I would absolutely have loved it — so this frontpage is genuinely a sad thing to see.
