I get fed up with that Essler and Mark Fairey (aka Kermode) waffling on about films when I'm watching the news channel. Even more irritating is the trailer which goes along the lines ''If you go to the movies to have a chat with your mates....etc...., then BBC film waffle is not for you.''

And I find myself thinking ''If you go to the news channel to find people talking about films, then BBC News is not for you....''

I went into B&Q. The shop assistant asked if I wanted decking. I told him I wasn't looking for a fight, merely trying to find some strong adhesive.

paid three quarters of a million and gifted it to the public.

Nice.

Seems we had a better class of upper class in those days, nowadays they all seem to be on telly flaunting their parents wealth
