Is The Witch Farm one of the best things on BBC Sounds?

I’ve just finished The Witch Farm and Danny Robins has absolutely nailed the atmosphere again. The sound design is incredible, if you haven’t listened with headphones yet, you’re missing out. Does anyone else find this investigative documentary style way more effective than a standard full-cast drama? Also, I saw the TV adaptation was officially greenlit last month. Apparently it’s filming in Wales right now. Do we think a visual version can actually capture the same dread the audio drama manages?

Has anyone tried the new Anastasia Beverly Hills Archibrow pencil yet?

I spotted the new Anastasia Beverly Hills Archibrow pencil in Boots yesterday and I’m really tempted to try it. The tiny blade-shaped tip looks amazing for natural hair-like strokes, but for £26 I’m wondering if it’s actually worth it or just another version of Brow Wiz. Main thing I want to know is whether it actually lasts all day or starts smudging once you get a bit warm. Would love honest reviews before I spend the money 😅

Is self-levelling a floor actually as easy as YouTube makes it look?

Is self-levelling compound actually a DIY job, or is it a trap? It looks so satisfying on YouTube, but I’m terrified of ending up with a floor that looks like the rolling hills of the Cotswolds. I’ve heard horror stories about it setting too fast or leaking through the floorboards into the room below. Has anyone here actually tackled this themselves, or is it worth the couple of hundred quid to just hire a pro? I’d love to know if it’s manageable for a novice or if I’m about to make a very permanent mistake.

Is 6–8 weeks of UCAT prep enough, or should I already be starting now?

I keep seeing completely different advice online. Some people say 6–8 weeks of focused revision is enough, while others say you should start really early and do a little bit every day for months. Coming from a non-science background, I honestly can’t tell what’s realistic anymore 😭

I don’t want to underprepare, but I also don’t want to burn out or peak too early either. How many hours per day were people actually doing when they started preparing properly?

The Play-Offs are officially here and I’ve got a feeling this one is going to be really cagey. Millwall have been rock solid lately, but Hull have that momentum after snatching 6th place from Wrexham on the final day. Score predictions? I’m going 1-1 to keep it interesting for the second leg at The Den.

Anyone heading to Keswick Mountain Festival next weekend?

I’m planning to head down to Crow Park on Sunday specifically to catch Jasmin Paris at the Tent Talks, the lineup this year looks great. Is anyone else going for the talks and music, or are you actually brave enough to be doing one of the swims or the triathlon? Also, has anyone used the shuttle from Penrith for this before, or is the Rugby Club parking the best bet?

Looking at med school requirements honestly feels like a complete maze sometimes. Some unis seem to care massively about UCAT, others focus more on GCSEs or academics overall, so it feels less like where do I want to go? and more where do I realistically have the best chance?”Those who’ve already applied, did you mainly choose the universities you genuinely liked most, or did you apply more strategically around your stats and interview chances?

There’s been so much discussion lately around Liverpool’s older core and possible changes over the next couple of transfer windows. With rumours constantly linking players like Alisson, Salah and Robertson away, it does feel like Liverpool could be heading into a pretty major transition period soon. For me, Alisson still feels almost impossible to replace because of how many points he saves across a season. Who do you think is the one player Liverpool absolutely cannot afford to lose right now?

The 90s really knew how to make pop stars look iconic

Every old BritPop/Spice Girls era photo has so much personality compared to how polished and safe celebrity fashion feels now. Do you think the pop side of the 90s actually influenced how normal people dressed more than BritPop bands did? Or were they both part of the same overall style at the time?
