Shut up, watching The Great Escape youtu.be/3Wzmsspg6lw?...

The originator of the Guinness and Pickled Egg nights at the Griffin speaks. The true meaning of Christmas. The Secret Santa one was ace. Didn’t you get the copy of Babylon I put in @kerryjeanlister.bsky.social?

Shout to remembering going out clubbing on Christmas Eve in olden times like that time we went to Spectrum or Land of Oz at Heaven. Smacky Garys too. Bad Xmas dinner comedown vibes

"Don't be silly, you can't make a leopard stand still". Forget the awful quality, but Bringing Up Baby is on BBC2. What's Up Doc next, then Great Escape later. Will be taping, as off to Boxing Day football soon but what a line-up

Baby Fish Mouth

Yes, I do believe that one day, ecstasy will be a crime, but if only they gave some to politicians, we'd solve all the world's problems etc

Christmas just wouldn't be Christmas without... SCROOGE: A CHRISTMAS CAROL (1951) 🎄 Starring #AlastairSim at 4:30pm.

Happy Christmas from me and the wreckers of civilisation

Been reminded, after discussing the Going Straight theme tune again, that I popped in the royal exchange the other night and the predominantly garage punk DJ dropped the Angels theme tune

Gudbuy t’June

What a year. What a fucking year.

I did an incognito set visit to this at the Fox building in LA. Double the Christmas fun as it was literally Nakatomi Plaza

Pluribus poses so many big questions and starts so many conversations such as “what would it be like if you made whole episodes of television where literally nothing happens?”

How did I not know the existence of this song until idly flicking the music channels about 10 minutes ago? Bob, mate, what happened? youtu.be/a8qE6WQmNus?...

Who said Criterion is letting its standards slip? Stick that up your Criterion Closet

I live in a converted school. Neville Brody went to school there.

Although the spirit of balearic is undefinable, somewhat conversely and perversely, nothing defines the spirit of balearic like this record. Pure MDMA. Off your head. Shivers when the bass comes in. The feeling of wanting to burst with joy at the vocals. Then someone telling you it was Chris Rea

Fiver says reviews and opening weekend box office reports will be variations on "Nolan hits a Homer run"

Morning listening youtu.be/Wmx8D1empNk?...

First watch for a couple of years. Still cried. Still amazed someone as right wing as Jimmy Stewart could be the socialist everyman rather than the evil banker

Pleased to have found an account and others obsessed with You Be The Judge, my weekly favourite weekly read in my north London metropolitan twat media elite liberal bubble

Ignoring the use of the c-word here ("slo-mo-goth-disco" bringing it back in credit), this has ended up in loads of year-end lists, helped, I think, by the fanzine accompanying it written by some div called Tim something or other as much as AW or Sean's odyssey and hard work

I went to the launch of this yesterday. In the kitchen and everything. It's ace and the food was lovely. In related news, got called Pops by an influencer

This just turned up in a box of books from the FMH: Johnny Green’s book signed by Mick Jones. Sorted by my dear departed chum Mike Flello, aka Wolves Mike. Relevant content @dustysevens.bsky.social

Bill Nelson - When The Birds Return [UK, New Wave] (1982) https://redd.it/1pne0b5 https://youtu.be/RV39fX56emc

This is in the Columbia Noir Made IN Britain box out this week. It's a goodie

My favourite hyphen. Blu-ray due next year from studiocanal

Watching Wicked As They Come from the Columbia Noir Made In Britain box out this week. Features Sid James in a small role. Doing an American accent. He was 33 here

Julian Henry, aka The Hit Parade, ended up doing Sega's PR at Lynne Franks PR and then launched his own company, Henry's House, and looked after the Beckhams and other. Still looking after them and others at XIX Entertainment. it's a mighty long way down rock 'n' roll etc

You only get one hit (that's the beauty of it) and everyone spells your name wrong

Not the worst thing in the world, given everything, but seen about three "shoe-ins" on here in the last day or two. Must do better

Just watched the Assassination Bureau, forthcoming Blu-ray from Arrow, then had this song on loop on the menu screen for about half an hour youtu.be/aKSENSZCupE?...

Is nothing sacred? @mrbrownetc.bsky.social get Stuart to sort the party there before it goes

Shout out to the critic who had 75 best albums of the year. That's some feat

Managed a couple of hours out and about last night. Elijah Minnelli and Dennis Bovell at Holy

Christmas card

Told you so. Weatherall on Sandinista

“Get me Alan from Crispy Ambulance” a load of the cast turned up to this screening
