Back in the Prado for what will probably be my final film of this year’s wonderful @sitgesfestival, sharksploitation doc Aquel Ultimo Tiburon. #Sitges

Disastrous programming fail at Sitges - someone has programmed Tintorera and The Shark Hunter so that they overlap and you can’t see both! Only one screening each, too. What’s a sharksploitation fan supposed to do? ___/\_____

Fair play to Christoph Waltz, who has managed to appear in both Dracula and Frankenstein this year. @sitgesfilmfestival.bsky.social

Do the Bishop. Mostly because I want to see the Springsteen *cough* plus one *cough*

Anyone seen this? It’s playing at Notting Hill Picturehouse on Tuesday.

So farewell then, Stacey Slater,
Off to Brazil, of all places,
Because Sean has apparently bought a restaurant or something,
At least you’re leaving Lily behind,
Even if the scriptwriters had to jump through hoops to make that happen.

Saddened by the death of Robert Redford, and not just because I was at a family funeral when I found out. Of his late career films, I highly recommend this, if you’ve never seen it.

I don’t get this joke!

I think so, yes. Very nice.

They are a slight letdown compared to the Hula Hoops, in all honesty. Not Seabrooks’ finest hour.

I was going to say no dairy, until I got to that end bit.

I feel like it’s both on brand for Hula Hoops and close enough to the official smoky bacon colour.

Summer is definitely over then, yes?

Oh, COME ON. There’s a new series of Only Murders in the Building? Like I don’t have enough TV to catch up on already?

So farewell then, “Jonno” Highway,
Dead from a heart attack in Callum’s kitchen,
You weren’t really in it enough to really merit one of these,
But it’s been a while, so here you are,
At least Ben is coming back for your funeral,
So there’s that.
