Education:

Teaching to the test gives 'hollow understanding' - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-41580550 From 2017, from the head of Ofsted, who maybe ought to be able to do something more about it than the rest of us, but apparently, didn't.

Miscellaneous:

Colin Kaepernick: From one man kneeling to a movement dividing a country - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/american-football/41530732 From 2017 but interesting as a capsule of then.

The man diagnosed with pathological laughter - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/disability-40629897

Two sisters, a mountain trek and a wobbly wire bridge - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-41527080

Why is heroin killing so many people? - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/resources/idt-sh/Heroin UK version of the problem.

Sport:

Baseball:

Ichiro retires after emotional finale in Tokyo - https://www.mlb.com/news/ichiro-in-lineup-for-opening-series-finale From 2019

Football:

Portsmouth owner Eisner's journey from Disney to Pompey - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-41509530 From 2017, and football being football, I have no idea who the Portsmouth owner is now.

Rugby League:

Regan Grace: From union heartland to starring for Wales in rugby league - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/40740642 From 2017. He still plays for Saints, and tries still frequently get tagged with 'Amazing Grace'.
