Possibly the greatest moment of all television, of all time.

Sorry to hear Dame Esther Rantzen has died. I will always remember her moving “That’s Life” segment with Sir Nicholas Winton, hero of the Holocaust, who rescued so many Jewish children. She was a great Briton. May her memory be a blessing.

Very sad to hear that Dame Esther Rantzen has died. Through her decades of campaigning, including founding Childline and The Silver Line, she changed countless lives and gave a voice to people who often went unheard. And I will always admire the characteristic courage and openness with which she spoke about her illness, making us all think about the difficult questions we face at the end of life. My thoughts are with her family and all who loved her.

The word ‘legend’ should be used very carefully…Dame Esther Rantzen was an absolute legend x

Andy Burnham @andyburnham and the #caseyreview have plans for #socialcare. They will fail if we still think it is just washing, tablets and hospital transfers. My new blog 👇 #BBCLauraK ermate.wordpress.com/2026/09/27/whi…

@andyburnham As a social worker (just over the water to where you are this week, on the Wirral), I really want to hear more about this. Something needs to change, and I really hope social workers are consulted on changes, as the ones seeing the issues day in, day out.

@MnugYc When I work on the trade‑off… over the years I’ve got Supersonic, Live Forever, the gigs, the books, the DVDs — and they’ve had about a quarter of a Wickes kitchen off me in return. I’m winning. Bring on Vegas 😎

@MANCHESTERMUS10 Don’t Look Back in Anger was absolutely tremendous. No spoilers but the songs are good ! 😎. Whether you have known them for decades or just discovered them, the film plays like a love letter to the band and all the people who love their music 😍

Labour have been forced to pause their half-baked plans for local councils. At every turn, they've ignored the public and tried to draw the most convenient boundaries for themselves. Will they now make their reasons for the new boundaries public, so that we can scrutinise them?

@JackTShaw The shambolic handling of LGR - and what it says about Ministers’ both disrespect for and lack of understanding of Local Government - is as depressing as it is infuriating.
