I haven’t done this in a while. Sorry. Here are my Twitter ‘highlights’ from the last month – wishing I were in Glee, Doctor Who puns, Torchwood, Vernon Kay, and 40 naked people and an MTV production crew…
TUESDAY 31ST MAY
Serious question. If I really, REALLY wanted to join the Dalton Academy Warblers, how would I go about it? #Glee (31/05/2011, 19:57)
Bear in mind a) Dalton Academy is fictional, and b) I can’t sing. #Glee (31/05/2011, 19:58)
Oh, and c) I’m deadly fucking serious about this. #Glee (31/05/2011, 19:58)
*has existential crisis* RT @robcurrie: @benjamin_cook If Ben Cook fanfiction exists, you could argue you already are a fictional character. (31/05/2011, 20:11)
Looks like I’m never going to be in the a cappella glee club of a fictional all-boys private school in Ohio. :( Life is so unfair. (31/05/2011, 20:28)

THURSDAY 9TH JUNE
I’m in a recording studio with Tom Baker and co. Trying to persuade him and John Leeson to join Twitter. Fighting a losing battle, I think. (09/06/2011, 14:23)
SUNDAY 12TH JUNE
In Fifty-Five Bar, Camden, with @HattiRex @casioclark @kickthepj @lightscameraash @mrtinoforever @CheekTV @BekkyShambles et al. (12/06/2011, 18:02)
FRIDAY 17TH JUNE
RT @gracedent: I chaired a Miranda Hart comedy writing masterclass for BAFTA. If you’re interested in writing funny stuff it’s here: http://bit.ly/k0Rw8U (17/06/2011, 13:09)
“There’s so much rushing in television. ‘Quickly, let’s make a show!’ No, ‘cos it’ll be shit. You’ve got to take your time.” (MIRANDA HART) (17/06/2011, 13:53)
MONDAY 20TH JUNE
Fun to catch-up with Eve Myles, Russell T Davies, @KaiKaiOwen @boydhilton @TomSpilsbury @lizo_mzimba et al at tonight’s Torchwood premiere. (21/06/2011, 00:01)
Ep 1 itself was good, too. Dark, funny, apocalyptic. It’s called “The New World”. Debuts in the USA on 8 July, and in the UK soon after. (21/06/2011, 00:04)
THURSDAY 23RD JUNE
I’m in Twickenham, where I grew up. Haven’t been here for years. Peered through the gates of my old primary school. Then went to the pub… (23/06/2011, 22:06)
What could possibly go wrong? In a pub? In Twickenham? In a pub? Eh? One day, Twitter, I’ll tell you what happened tonight in this pub… (23/06/2011, 22:07)
It involved 40 naked people and an MTV production crew. (23/06/2011, 22:10)
MONDAY 27TH JUNE
Confirmed at last! Torchwood: Miracle Day will premiere in the UK on Thurs 14 July (six days after the US), on BBC1, 9pm. Tell your friends. (27/06/2011, 17:21)
There’s something not quite wholesome about this new piece of official Dr Who merch, but I can’t put my finger on it: http://bit.ly/l0xJ8c (27/06/2011, 19:06)
TUESDAY 28TH JUNE
In studio for Chris Moyles’ Quiz Night with @DubEll_ and @alexthemagix. (28/06/2011, 17:41)
RT @thegarethmclean: @benjamin_cook Please God be carrying an Uzi and be prepared to use it. (28/06/2011, 17:42)
@thegarethmclean They took the Uzi from us at the front gate. (28/06/2011, 17:44)
I’ve just spent three hours in the same room as Vernon Kay. :( (28/06/2011, 20:58)
Ever wondered what @DubEll_ would look like with half of Jack Whitehall’s face? Amazing. http://twitpic.com/5i9mkg (28/06/2011, 21:11)
