it seems cut/mashed-up/edited, but it appears to be off a real film, about someone pretending to be stanley kubrick.

mental.

the whole cast seems low budget (nurse gladys, jimmy d , other people who were kind of pretty famous at one point)

wonder if its on netflix or whatevers.

the story is the kind of stuff that the sun goes bonkers over, but i totally missed it. similar to that story were that model was accused of rapng that mormon dude , but she then jumped bail and did one back to america, they made a film about that too, but apparantly it were the mirror that loved that story.

The film of Robert Goddard's Enigma. BBC4 (Freeview 9 or HD 106 at 9-0'clock.) Seen it before but I'll quite happily be giving it another go tonight.

Yeah, that was an error from rushing. I've read the book more than once, probably still have it somewhere. Top stuff, both book and film.

Richard Ayoade's The Double. Thought it was great, a little bit perplexing, a little bit 1984, but visually impressive and funny too plus a handful of familiar faces. Nice job

It's no Submarine tho.

Excellent film. And until The Double came out I had no idea that Moss from The IT crowd was responsible for it. Funny guy and obviously a talented director.

im a big fan of all the cast and writers/director but somehow didnt rate 'The IT Crowd'

Chris O'dowd & Chris Morris briefly pitch up in The Double. Esp pleasing to see Morris on screen again. Ayoade always comes across funny and intelligent when you see him on tv and in the paper etc, and yeah definitely an extremely talented director.

The trip was great again. Watched it last night before Metro Manilla. Blimey that's a bit bleak.

Here's a blast from the past for the oldies.

Watching 'Endeavour' on ITV and the middle-aged French woman in the Department Store is Cecile Paoli .... once upon a time Bergerac's French girlfriend 'Frankie' just 25 years older.

Frankie is my back-up plan for if Stevie Nicks manages to hold herself back from me. Unlikely of course, but ....

Watched Endeavour tonight too, (I watched all the last series as well as this) but never really watched Bergerac. I was always a big Morse fan but I'd like to see Lewis back in another series. Pity, next week is the last of the current Endeavour season. I'm toying with the idea of missing the end of the golf and watching 11-0'clock on Freeview 61.

Having seen both episodes so far it's clear that BBC 1's The Crimson Field is another outstanding drama. Really excellent writing. Very, very good acting and direction. Full of tension, heart and a sense of the pity of war that hits the emotions. Great characters, clearly delineated, complex, only slightly schematic. This is very good drama.
