Saw Griff Rhys Jones last night, as he hosted his annual Ipswich fundraiser show for East Anglian Children's Hospice's (EACH). Top man.
Mel & Griff introduced (probably) the most memorable set of the whole of Live Aid.... Queen.

He can't resist being platformed and will just wait until he thinks all this has 'blown over'. It's a carbon copy of the Trump-ish 'fake news' strategy.

Love the sound of a Ricky bass. The bass player in our band played a red one back then. He later bought a natural colour 4001. Posted a pic a few days ago, from way back then.

Great version of this story.
I can think of numerous other TV & film stories who have used the idea of several people trapped together in a house, or on an isolated island, as they get bumped-off one at a time.

Lovely area, and great views of the Bass Rock from there. We have relatives who live there and have previously visited some Fringe By The Sea events.

Anyone still puzzled about Farage should maybe take a look at what has happened to/in America. Farage is a big fan of Trump.

All great, but I only bought 2 of them back then. The textless ones.

Hey, maybe share a coast pic if you get the chance. I collect them, from all over the planet. I believe it's a lovely coastline there. 😎👍

DYK at the outbreak of WW2 Troughton was studying in America. Returning to enlist, his ship struck a mine and he had to escape in a life raft as the vessel foundered.
He enlisted in the Royal Navy and served with distinction.

I saw this on release in the UK as it received a U Certification. Visually stunning, but quite hard to decipher (for a 10 year old) until I later read the ArthurC Clark story.
47 years later, it’s still the best sci-fi movie ever made.

Dramatic photograph. Visited Liberty Island (from the UK) in 1973 & 2023. The name 'Liberty' seems somewhat incongruous in the current USA environment.

I know Chitty and Knives out are fun hokum, but this Sinatra film is quite remarkable for:
Controversial (for the time) subject matter
A crooner risking his rep playing a con & addict
The direction (Preminger)
The music (Bernstein)

Read those books as a child. The first TV mini series in 1967 (when I was 9) looked like a bad school play. It's good that the stories were revisited in later years, and given better treatments.

Reeves being attacked by the same press who defended Johnson and Truss, and now push Reform. What a surprise!
