My son has just asked me a question which is so unanswerable, that I fear it may rip a hole in the very fabric of the space time continuum.
Why is there no mouse flavoured cat food?

At the age of 60, I did my first ever session lifting weights today (with a PT). And I was pleasantly surprised to discover it's every bit as tedious and fucking joyless as I'd always suspected.
So that's nice.

Just bought a wheelchair for my dad off ebay & the lady selling it then asked if I'd like some other stuff (bath seats etc) thrown in & then told me I was doing a good job 4 my dad. It made me blub a bit & reminded me, that despite the news, most people are unbelievably brilliant

Just sprinkled my lovely mum in the Thames by the National & then put a pinch of her under a seat in the stalls of the Olivier. She took me there in 76 when it opened, firing my own lifelong love of the arts. I like to think of her now being part of a place she adored.

Just learned Starmer once went to a friend's house in the evening, where he AND his wife knowingly ate free food served up to them by friends! Starters, mains, apparently they even scoffed a pudding & guzzled free wine without declaring ANY OF IT!! He surely has to go!!

11 years ago today, I lost my wife, and our boys their mum, to suicide. Have read lots of thoughts over the last 24 hours, about the need to talk, which is so true, but for me, listening is the thing. Family, friends, professionals. Listen listen listen #WorldSuicidePreventionDay

Waited till everyone had left the very steamy steam room, then lay down on the wet marble and spent an enjoyable 10 minutes using the water suction in the small of my back to make endless slurpy farty noises. And then a man rose from the steamy far corner and walked out. I'm 60.

When they were 4, 8 & 12, I told my kids swearing was illegal until 1967, punishable, in the case of extreme swearing, by imprisonment. I did it for no other reason than to see if I could get away with it. It remains one of my finest parental achievements #LiesYourParentsToldYou

A few weeks shy of his 93rd birthday, this magnificent man slipped away yesterday. We were out getting drunk at the Ivy only two weeks ago, and he was still flirting with nurses the night before last. They loved him, as did I, very much. Goodbye "Honest John", goodbye dad.

time to rebrand the seasons I think. I'm broadly happy with autumn, winter and spring, they're pulling their weight, but summer needs to be trimmed down to just 3 or 4 days in May, and there should be a fifth season, lasting from June to September and called simply
'shit'.

Yesterday, a homeless man asked our brilliant autistic son for some food. So F takes him in to shop and offers to buy him a ham sandwich. Except the guy says he hates ham, can he have cheese. F, telling us this story, then says - with no irony -'turns out beggars CAN be choosers'

'All Quiet On the Western Front', is possibly the only truly anti war film I think I have ever seen. No heroic deeds, no journeys, no stirring score, no nobility, no survivors, just endless, pointless, horrific, death.
It's spectacularly brilliant.

For many years now, at least ten, I have sent myself texts to remind myself of work/story/creative thoughts as I walk. A few seconds after I press send, my phone buzzes, alerting me to the arriving text, and every time, EVERY time, I think, 'ooh, someone's sent me a text'.

I am always baffled by people in the arts (Louis de Bernieres in The Times yesterday) saying they don't watch TV. Given TV is arguably the most important art form of the last 50 years, it's like saying you don't read books, or listen to music. Why would any artist admit to that?

Pushed in to a corner, Rees-Mogg starts to reveal himself. Spiteful, puerile & quite dim. Here, in his own brilliantly idiotic tweet, he utterly exposes the fallacy of 'take back control', because as you so 'cleverly' point out, Jacob.....we already have it.

Takes a long time to make it, Brian - about 18 months, to write, prepare production, film & then to edit. Takes time to assemble the same team we have every year, the same director, producer and same crew. We don't believe in rushing things, we like to do it right on #Unforgotten
@TVSanjeev Good to have #Unforgotten back again. Longer or more frequent series in future, please @ITV @ChrisLangWriter. Two years is a long wait.

The reaction to Jimmy Carr's revolting 'joke', is quite revealing of where we are culturally. Maybe let's try and remember that a good person can do a bad thing. All of us sometime do bad things, nearly all of us are basically good.

My abiding emotion after watching #LeavingNeverland is rage. Rage that every time one of his records is played on air, or the show Thriller is performed, or a shop plays one of his tracks, his family make money. They should assign all future royalties to child sex abuse charities

So #thethiefhiswifeandthecanoe is on ITV tonight at 9.00. It stars the brilliant @MonicaDolan @eddiemarsan @AndrewLancel @KarlPilkington @davidfynn & @MarkStanley12. If you enjoy watching it even half as much as I enjoyed writing & making it, you are in for a real treat.

Found this old bust of me (by my mum) as a babe, in her loft when clearing her house. It's actually a plaster cast & was in two pieces and chipped all over. So I put it back together, filled the holes and then 'bronzed' it. I think she would have liked how it now looks.
