I would love to see a reality TV cooking show where contestants have to create a tasty and nutritious meal using only ingredients available from a randomly selected food bank. Sort of Scrapheap Challenge but useful.

I was living in Canada when they abolished the penny, and one family in the neighborhood gave a bunch of pennies they'd saved from the scrapheap to the kids.

Older unemployed NEET are directly blocked by apprenticeship providers targeting applicants qualifying for youth nmw only.

Nothing has changed today. Over 50s are on the scrapheap.

Fifteen pianos destined for the scrapheap were given a new lease of life as public art in the University’s Festival of Ideas. The pianos were decorated by local artists and located in communal spaces around the city for anyone to play.

Unsaved is out now. A science fiction novella at the end of time, where the sun is undead, tech is part of the ecology, and the world is buried by the past.

An ancient android goes undercover to steal the last spark of humanity.

The worst one was Gasly imo. They kept him in the junior team and then let him go to Alpine when he was performing at a very high level and should have been the obvious choice to step back into RBR. But once Marko decided it was the scrapheap for a driver, they had no chance. Albon was similar

In a couple of years Trump and putin will probably be dead or in prison, Europe is becoming strong both military and politically, Farrage will be consigned to the scrapheap of failed politicians and maybe we will have a bit of peace before the next power hungry greedy bastard.

Saturday night saw this year’s first perfect 10s and Tabby Stoecker top the scores. Shaun Wright-Phillips was bottom. But who won’t be hoofing on Halloween?

The problem with war is, due to the stress there are often issues with mental health and addiction problems, and that is the useful excuse to throw them on the scrapheap of society, and it is usually to the benefit of rich arseholes who gain through selling weapons, or the resources/spoils of war.

No. Poppies are a reminder of how dreadful war is and how badly damaged so many combatants are when they come back and end up on the scrapheap. When I look at Palestinian amputee children I can't help but make the poppy connection. A lifetime of disability and PTSD for whole generations. Very apt

Excellent shouts. Earnest and educational with a little bit of a children's TV feel.

I have been watching Scrapheap Challenge recently. It's so good. Exactly designed for my sensibilities.

Icons Week saw Cach Mercer and Jaime Winstone jointly top the leaderboard. Dame Sarah Storey was the lowest scorer. But who will be consigned to the dreaded dance-off?

Coming back to this and god lord I was expecting the skits to improve my thoughts on the party a bit but I am genuinely shocked at just how much better of a character Keele is with them, like he used to be one of my least liked characters but those skits save him from the scrapheap.
Also I have to say as someone who has played the game quite a bit on the PSP its crazy to me just how much both having the skits and having far better voice direction makes the cast so much more endearing, actual night and day difference and has made the party shoot up in likability for me.
