- Mark Kermode on sparkling form here. Well worth a few minutes of your time.

- Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

- He's clearly respected, liked and admired by everyone inside the club, which says more about him than any fan opinion. A solid player and proper leader who wore the shirt with pride. Maybe stayed a season or two too long but it was right to keep him and help him past his injury. Thanks, Jam. #nufc
