A deaf baby hears for the first time. Thousands of hours of patient experimentation went into this. Science is glory x.com/JuventusLeb/st…

Henderson’s dad had throat cancer and asked him not to see him while he was going through treatment. I’ve hugged a parent in the same way for similar reasons and this video is definitely the highlight of the season

Just made a big mistake on @BBCNews which I regret. I said Tim Davie was privately educated at Whitgift. True - but he won a scholarship, and was the first in his family to go to university. Given how much of my life is spent working on social mobility, that's unforgivable. Sorry

Seeing this for first time. Former Royal Marine with Parkinson’s cries with joy after feeling improvement. Millions of hours of patient experimentation, by unheralded women and men in white coats, made this possible. Science is glory x.com/kwilli1046/sta…

Happy Father’s Day to my ultimate hero, the cleverest man I’ve met, born into unconscionable poverty, who with his glorious wife (also one of 11 siblings) sacrificed everything to come to UK when I was 3, so that his kids may at least live a fuller, happier life than he did

Test cricket is intellectually, morally, aesthetically, spiritually, emotionally, dramatically, artistically, physically, mentally, historically, consistently, decisively, dumbfoundingly, globally, unapologetically, unquestionably superior to every other game yet invented

1/ 10pm last night I had a full-on panic attack. Worked myself up into a frenzy, catastrophising about first shift on @BBCr4today. Had 3 massive rums and a bit else. Got 1hr kip, in at 3.45 (below). Survived. Thank you so much for all the niceness and constructive criticism...

I was in Grant Park in Chicago on election night in 2008, maybe 40m from Obama as he gave that unforgettable speech. I’d forgotten that, elsewhere that evening, John McCain was giving an even better one. What a hero. He personified American greatness:

If you find yourself moaning about something inconsequential, take a look at this hero and reboot yourself
