We were sad to hear of the death of #DavidHockney, perhaps the greatest #British post-war #artist. Hockney always linked art to cinema & ways of seeing, such as in the film about his life, 'A Bigger Splash', or his research on the optical aids of the old masters in his book 'Secret Knowledge'. #RIP

Probably the funniest comedian you’ve never even heard of! But the chances are that you’ve already laughed at one of his jokes, as he has written for many of the top comedy shows in Britain and the USA. IMDb: bit.ly/4eE9yxz Amazon: bit.ly/4hA0B7W

This new series of The Muppet Show is certainly more satirical.

Second of a 2-book series, this is a smash, bang, wallop race along dark comedy thriller with a body count to die for. Strong, sometimes cruel dialogue, feisty armed forces veteran anti heroes and a plot that will keep you on the edge of your seat. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09X1W7X7Y

Absolutely! #BookSky
