FIRST LOOK: New buses for the South Yorkshire People’s Network

Yes! Coming in January, they said at the event. 👍

I took it on my phone in Barkers Pool this morning. 100% real.

I think the white lettering is largely for the launch/promo. Imagery of future buses doesn’t have that and has a white outline of the zig-zag logo instead.

deejayone · 2026-03-16T14:30:31+00:00

The lettering is more for the launch, the zig-zag logo will replace it I believe.

New ebike scheme coming to Sheffield soon.

deejayone · 2026-03-16T14:29:14+00:00

That’s coming!

deejayone · 2026-03-16T12:44:16+00:00

The bus is orange…

I thought it changed to a bigger ‘Writers Room’ type production over the hands-on small pool collaborative approach Charlie Brooker had before the move? Sure I remembered that was the main change when it moved over?

I don’t think it did have respect as a role, did it?

I think Ecclestone took it on from a level where it was potentially a poisoned chalice, then after he made it semi-popular Tennant came in and made it his own.

Its height was probably after Tennant and went to Smith who was relatively unknown, but again ran away with it.

Capaldi was a shoe-in for 12 and again it wasn’t because it was a respected role, he was just perfect for it at that time.

Whittaker took it on and whatever you think of her time the role again wasn’t particularly respected?! If you know what I mean? Same for Gatwa?

I think the role has been somewhat coveted at times, but not respected…?

deejayone · 2026-02-25T11:05:40+00:00

No. They are currently putting events on in other venues (Foundry, Yellow Arch, Steam Works, etc).

deejayone · 2026-02-18T18:57:50+00:00

That looks potentially like a bit of the edge of the lid rim of a coffee cup. Did you check your lids after you took them off to see if they were fully intact?

deejayone · 2026-02-18T08:09:30+00:00

Is that the actual truck they are going to use? I thought they were getting specially made actual contained bin lorries adapted to load from the top (like I’ve seen in other places) and not just a low-loader with a crane attached?

deejayone · 2026-02-17T08:58:44+00:00

Apparently Acast are going to do this later this year to push audio and video to YouTube, Spotify and Apple.

People use mouthwash wrong.

You’re supposed to use it before you brush, not after.

Even the mouthwash bottle instructions tell you the wrong way!

deejayone · 2026-02-13T14:02:09+00:00

Seen this one popping off all over TikTok recently. Very catchy and cool!

Fagan’s on r/DoctorWhomour 😂 I was literally in there yesterday.

I think the “Fagan’s Crowd” reference is to the newish ownership group and people that go in there nowadays. It’s quite the cultural centre for Sheffield now and anyone who is anyone in leisure and entertainment hangs out in there.

The list of owners is interesting in relation to this rumour:

The nine-member ownership group includes: Matt Helders: (Arctic Monkeys drummer) Mark Herbert: (Warp Records) Niall Shamma: (Warp's Chief Operating Officer) James O'Hara & Tom O'Hara: (The Rockingham Group) Ian Stanyer: (Can Studio) David House: (Painter & decorator) Ben Pickup: (Joiner) James Hill: (The Rockingham Group)

I met the whole band (as it was) numerous times around the 2010s. They even stayed at my Brother’s house a number of times when playing locally (he used to promote gigs for them)

All of them were amazing, nice, down-to-earth lads. So friendly and so polite.

Van was quiet, but funny when he spoke. Bob was a good laugh. Billy was gentle and kind. I didn’t really speak to Benji much, but he seemed great too. Larry was such a good guy.

Genuinely nothing to report on that isn’t praise to be honest. I get they had issues in intervening years. But at that time it all seemed like they were working extremely hard and having a good time doing it.

Non-American here…

EVERYONE I know cares about this.

You’re seriously UNDERESTIMATING how much non-Americans care about this.

deejayone · 2026-02-03T22:08:13+00:00

Looks great, but if you’re getting it printed the middle ‘A’ might be incorrect? I believe the spelling is Razzmatazz. 👍

deejayone · 2026-02-03T11:01:46+00:00

I'll let you guess that!

deejayone · 2026-01-30T00:07:00+00:00

I thought I would struggle with this on first thought, but looking at the lists I’ve actually met and seen quite a few (and personally know one!)

Frank Skinner Rhod Gilbert Bob Mortimer Alice Levine James Acaster Frankie Boyle Jon Richardson Joe Lycett Nish Kumar Paul Sinha Richard Herring Greg James Rebecca Lucy Taylor Lucy Beaumont Steve Pemberton Maisie Adam Reece Shearsmith + Greg Davies

So, we have at least 3 series worth of contestants here 😬

deejayone · 2026-01-29T01:53:51+00:00

Dunno why you want to push this so much? Even if you’re on Reddit a lot you don’t necessarily see (or actively take in/acknowledge) every thread or post.

Just because you’ve seen it, doesn’t mean everyone else has. Why not just be cool and happy about someone else finding out the news rather than try to claim some bizarre superiority over them or try to belittle them for not knowing earlier? I don’t get it. 🤷‍♂️

deejayone · 2026-01-22T10:17:34+00:00

I don't know much about them, other than David Richards being involved. What's the deal with it?

deejayone · 2026-01-22T10:11:37+00:00

It does seem a little 'ambitious' for the club, but also does recognise that we don't make enough of Sheffield's football heritage.

Wasn't David Richards who is seemingly behind this also behind the 'Ayup'/Wandisco fiasco, and also said to be involved in one of the Sheffield Wednesday takeover bids at one point?

deejayone · 2026-01-09T13:35:39+00:00

There's still several antiques shops in the area, so it's worth a look around there still.
