#NowPlaying If I ever become famous enough to go on "Desert Island Discs" I'd just choose this entire LP and be done with it. Yeah, I'd be a dreadful guest, but I'd have satisfaction. Never fails to stir my soul...

RIP to the great Patrick Stewart Most famous for playing Captain Picard in Star Trek: the next generation. Also had one of the best one-time voice appearances in The Simpsons

Patrick Stewart as gay opera director Alistair Burke in one of my favourite scenes in Frasier. Rest in Peace

So many other things to remember and celebrate Sir Patrick Stewart for... but this has to be one of the best line readings in the history of The Simpsons

Never like losing (obviously), and it’s bad news for the players who are going to struggle for minutes now this season. But a lot of changes against a good team in good form and this is always most likely what you get. I don’t like it. But I understand it. #avfc

from the Velvets debut, that only reached 171 in the US charts. Well most of the songs weren't exactly radio friendly, except maybe this one that actually sounds pretty mainstream. Until you learn what the song is about 😬 Lou Reed - There She Goes Again (Barcelona 1984) ▶️

Hearing the Captain Pugwash theme when you concede must be one of life’s most jarring experiences
A moment for the history books. A moment for 20-year-old Aaron Loupalo-Bi. ⭐️

Bob Dylan broke out the 'Time Out of Mind' classic “Not Dark Yet” for the first time in seven years...and it sounded nothing like the previous 191 live renditions of the song over the past three decades. Hear it now ⬇️ rollingstone.com/music/music…

Aston Villa can reach the League Cup quarter-finals for only the second time in 14 seasons this evening. Bournemouth have also won their last four matches and lost just once at home this term, but haven't beaten Villa on home soil in over four years. Intriguing tie... #AVFC

The fact Arsenal have been subjected to the Captain Pugwash music is fantastic viewing

The infamous moment when Ron Atkinson sat in the wrong dugout on his managerial debut for Nottingham Forest.

It’s Gordon Cowans’ birthday today. So here he is casually carving up the Inter defence like a Christmas turkey in 1990.
