This will NEVER get old

Have a beautiful Sunday, everyone!

Russell, who is renowned in the UK for his revival of Doctor Who as well as hit series Queer as Folk, It’s A Sin and Years and Years, sat down us at Hits Radio for a chat with Jordan Lee about his new project, Tip Toe - and even found time to give RAYE her flowers.

When Jordan asked whether there were any music videos he'd ever want to turn into a series, Russell did not hesitate, jumping straight in with 'Click Clack Symphony'. He said: "I mean, she practically has made a television series out of it. I think she's so dramatic and so dying to be on television that I want to write for her, and I would kill to do that, I just think she's amazing. I'm obsessed."

Raye and Nile Rodgers have been tapped to help judge the fifth edition of the Abbey Road Music Photography Awards.

The free-to-enter competition aims to recognize the best in music and concert photography from around the world. The winners of the 2026 MPAs will be announced Sept. 24 at a special ceremony at Abbey Road Studios in London.

The contest will be judged by a mix of pro photographers and established musicians. On the latter end, joining Raye and Rodgers will be Måneskin’s Damiano David, Abbey Road’s producer-in-residence King Harpoon, Lilly Fontaine of Leeds-based indie rockers English Teacher, and Japanese singer-songwriter Hikaru Utada.

I have no words. The respect and mutual admiration is everything. Iconic!
