Chris Tilling shared the above image on Twitter. If you don’t get it, it relates to the claims of Joseph Atwill, which have begun circulating again even though he doesn’t seem to be saying anything that he hasn’t said before. Read more

I am privileged not only to have my son benefit from the Metropolitan Youth Orchestra program of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, but also to get to play the role of accompanist myself sometimes, as I did in this year’s Play-a-Thon (as evidenced in the video above – sorry it starts a few seconds into the first piece, which is “Minor Swing” by Stephane Grappelli, the famous jazz violinist).

I am proposing that, on November 2nd, the day that a conference on Religion and Doctor Who is being held at the University of Manchester, we organize a synchroblog on the topic.

The BBC held a press conference today, then embargoed those present from publishing the details before midnight UK time.
