The LEGO CUUSOO site seems to simply your childhood fever dreams made real.

This set from Sam Gras is a perfect example. Straight out of the Batman ’66 TV series, it brings back memories of Saturday morning TV and falling in love with the Batmobile for the first time.

This simply needs to be in Christmas stockings this year.

Lego, Get On This Batman ’66 Batmobile Set IMMEDIATELY

Ian Bailey and Jules Thomas’ civil action against the State is up for mention in the High Court this morning.

It comes as John Burke of RTÉ last night reported that 133 separate tape recordings from Bandon Garda Station have emerged of conversations between gardaí, witnesses and journalists relating to the Sophie Toscan du Plantier murder case.

Mr Burke said they were found last autumn following a discovery order made by Mr Bailey and Ms Thomas’ lawyers.

Mr Burke reported that 36 involve conversations between [fake witness] Marie Farrell and gardaí; 18 involve conversations with [informant] Martin Graham and gardaí; 42 involve conversations between journalists and gardaí; 37 involve conversations between gardaí and other members of the force, including senior garda officers; while at least one is a recorded conference call between local gardaí and senior gardaí in Dublin.

Bubble Your TV is a new second screen app from developer Padraig Hough.

The app not only acts as a TV guide but also lets you comment and rate the shows you are watching.

You can sort shows by ratings, popularity and time left (well there’s no point in switching to something that’s nearly over is there?).

It’s early days for the app and they are actively looking for feedback so why not give it a LOOKl and let them know what YOU think?

The app is available now on the Google Play Store and an iOS version is in the pipeline.

Do you have an Irish app? Broadsheet@broadsheet.ie

As always, no favours, cuddles, or pints were given for this post. We have some guidelines on submissions.
