I've bought my tickets to see The Popinjay Cavalier next year. Fingers crossed!

The BBC charter section 6.4: "...the BBC should accurately and authentically represent and portray the lives of the people of the United Kingdom today, and raise awareness of the different cultures and alternative viewpoints that make up its society"

Whem I discovered there was a particularly resilient vampire on my team, I had to double-cross him.

I was tour guiding once. 47 of us plus me arrived with big bags off a ferry in Holyhead. They'd sent a 36 seater coach. Our hotel for the night was in the Lake District.

Yes but not enough I guess.

They cancelled a bunch of Northern Irish shows because, presumably, they don't travel enough. But local interest should matter!

I've talked about this before, but it is very hard when you see how moral red lines are drawn, and the complete gutting of trans people's civil rights is entirely within an accepted norm and barely remarked upon even by many progressives.

Something I just realised about this year’s three Best Actor frontrunners:

I have never rewatched that film because that ending annoyed me so much. And I enjoyed the previous one enormously!

Brb, buying a lottery ticket. Although I tried that when a bird pooed on me the other day and it really didn't work.

Yes. A three-winged bird in one shot was also a clue, I thought.

Also that, potentially, yes.

Oh that would NOT be my takeaway; I also just saw one of the best films of the last 10 years in the last 24 hours so I'd absolutely not give up on the lot of it.

I agree!

Honestly I suspect that producers are pushing for it over everyone else's objections. To "add scale" or some shit.

And they're not even expensive so why not at least do that?

They wanted to swoop in towards a character without even bothering to get a damn drone WHICH IS NOT EXPENSIVE.

Not yet I'm afraid, but I will when the time comes.
