I would like you to join me in taking a breather. ✨A break from doom scrolling, if you will✨ This video is too long so I just included the best part…when Robert Plant cries,I cry 🥹 Heart’s tribute to Led Zeppelin ft. John Bonham’s son on drums.

This BBC News Online piece will be the most effective publicity my new documentary about Flight into Danger gets. So if you have enjoyed the programme, think you may enjoy it, or are just a kind soul, if you could please share this anywhere you think it may be worth sharing, I'd be very grateful!

I surely did enjoy contributing to this quirky story of TV and film history (don't call me Shirley) www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Astrud Gilberto was a housewife in 1964 when saxophonist Stan Getz decided he wanted his hit “Girl From Ipanema” to be sung in English — something her husband, Joao, who sang the original track, couldn’t do. Sold 2 million copies. Born today in 1940. 💕

Ireland’s one of my favorite countries, absolutely love it. I still have much to explore but here’s a post on one of my favorite cities in Ireland, Kilkenny: 🍀 🐑 🇮🇪 itravelforthestars.com/kilkenny-tra...

Some records stop being songs and turn into house rules. I grew up with a mom who kept this jam on repeat. What keeps pulling peeps out seats since ‘79 is the promise inside it. That folks decide the road ahead belongs to them. That kind of momentum earns airtime.

Here's a rare treat. A behind the scenes documentary about the making of The Offence, with director Sidney Lumet taking Sean Connery through his paces in rehearsal. Absolutely fascinating www.youtube.com/watch?v=zAEL...

This my cup of tea.

Went to Picturehouse Central in Piccadilly Circus for the first time. Saw Sentimental Value. Not my cup of tea.

I do a script-to-screen comparison of THE SPY WHO LOVED ME! What they left out, changed, improved! The different ending! The title was originally used in the dialogue! Check it out! #JamesBond #007 tremblesighwonder.com/2021/04/08/t...

@neilkbrand.bsky.social Great show @bfi this afternoon. Good luck with the national tour.

A perfect Sunday awaits celebrating 100 Years of Laurel and Hardy with @neilkbrand.bsky.social.

music.youtube.com/watch?v=VkBL... Saw this tonight. Rather enjoyable.

I see it is already new year in Helmetstan, based on the amount of fireworks 🎆 going off round here.

Happy Hogmanay to all those who celebrate.

The nights are fair drawing out.

This is just…jaw dropping. Literally awesome.

It’s my friend and collaborator, Dave Thomas’s birthday today. He’s the senior parter in our “Due signori in giallo podcast and can be heard on the new Hammer release of Whispering Smith Hits London. Happy Birthday @realdavethomas.bsky.social.

The new Great British Railways livery is so extreme, reform voters will probably try to shag the trains.

Watching my first Fellini film tonight.
