  • Help us work out the future of the Inglesport Café

    We've been trading since 1977 and next year will be our 50th anniversary.

    The café has been part of that for a long time, running quietly in the background for years, and we don't think it always gets the credit it deserves as a genuine community hub. ⁠But we need to be straight with you: the café is under real pressure, and we’re not sure of the best path forward.....

Cave on 'Breaking Dad'

Tonight, on ITV1 at 9:30 pm: 'Bradley & Barney Walsh: Breaking Dad'. We get to see 'if Bradley can make a perilous crossing over a steep drop. And ... there are snakes and bats to welcome them to a pitch-dark cave'. Well, they could always turn their lights on. I expect they'll be given lights. Interesting that the writer of this chose to put bats with snakes into the 'dangerous/scary creatures' category.
 
In the Yucatan (they also dip their toes in a cenote at the end of the programme):

BARNEY: "Oh, yes! In the second episode, we visit a cave in Mexico that’s infested with bats and snakes! The snakes hang upside down in the cave and when bats come along they swoop down and catch them. That’s how they catch their dinner. It’s very dark and cramped in there and there are a lot of bats flying around and snakes hanging about. That kind of I’m A Celebrity challenge was quite freaky for me."

BRADLEY: "I actually really enjoyed it!"

BARNEY: "I think the tables turned that day!"
