Prompted by a comment from @MindlessDrugHoover on another thread, if ever I have pent up anger and frustration that needs letting out I do find listening to this at high volume to be suitably cathartic:

Flicking through the channels, as it’s a bit hot, just came across the episode of Succession in which Logan Roy dies. An excellent hour of tv drama.

Can’t remember if any of these have been discussed already, but Apple TV is knocking it out the park recently. Widow’s Bay was all round wonderful, Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed has some of the best dialogue I’ve seen (heard?) in a show in a long time, and Cape Fear is incredible.

I get Apple for a month once Slow Horses and Severance have landed. I will investigate those when we take the plunge again.

I don’t know if Cape Fear can sustain 10 episodes. I’ve seen 4 and blimey Charlie there’s some moments early doors. How they ramp it up from there will be something to see. But so far so brutal!

I’m assuming we’ve all watched The Bear by now. Season five was a great ending to an almost perfect show.

Was great. One of those shows where I simply don’t believe there is acting happening.

Slow Horses just finished a whole load of filming in and around Downley and Wycombe. All the trucks down at Adam’s Park over the last week have been the base. The legendary Roddy Ho was seen downing a neck oil in the Le De beer garden last Thursday.

Probably one of Jackson Lamb’s farts that finally finished off the terrace.

In more important news, Ronnie Le Drew has died today, aged 78. Most famous for being the puppeteer for Zippy from rainbow.

Gutted. Loved Zippy as a kid. And I was also one of those that didn’t think ‘why didn’t Zippy just un-zip himself when he was being naughty’ until it dawned on me later in life.
