#OTD London, 1984. Everyone in this photo gathered together to record the Band Aid single 'Do They Know It's Christmas?'. Four days later it was released in the UK and is played all over the world at this time of year every year! We'll always remember it. bit.ly/2AgshwO

Our friends rescued some ex battery chickens and if it doesn't persuade everyone to never eat battery eggs again I don't know what will.
Thankfully their little naked bottoms are now living their best lives and they have tiny jumpers.

The decision to pull Clive Myrie from News At Ten because he'd been hilarious on Have I Got News For You? earlier the same evening is important. It shows how successfully vicious right-wing papers have cowed BBC executives in to making decisions based on fear of being attacked.

Be patient with yourself if you're having a difficult day. We all have them from time to time - and that's okay. It's impossible to always be at 100%.

In case you didnโt know already, @BBCFarmingToday routinely delivers some of the finest journalism available anywhere in the U.K.
