If you don’t love this film I’m not sure we can be friends 😂
BLAZING SADDLES was released 52 years ago today. Acclaimed as one of the great comedies of the 1970s, and among the most popular of director Mel Brooks, the story of how it was made is a cascading waterfall of creative alternatives...

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Sums it up pretty neatly - maybe I would say population rather than the poor (because it’s not about being actually poor) but boy this nails it (and we are following right behind America). Tragic times

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

A polite notification that, if you liked Harry Hill's interview with Stewart Lee, he's also put his entire World Of TV series on his YouTube channel. It being made during lockdown, it's got a lo-fi vibe that suits YouTube perfectly. youtu.be/GV3FS_9lXQA?...
