This was on Impossible on BBC Two today...
I MEAN FOR FUCKS SAKE, DO THE BBC NOT CHECK THESE THINGS!? 🙄🤦♂️
This was just posted 13 hours on Facebook from a channel owned by the BBC called BBC Comedy Greats. There's taking the piss and then there's this... 😳🙄

On BBC One, Children of Men (2006), a horrific dystopia set in a fascist Britain in 2027. On ITV... Undercover: A Year In Reform.
Very on the nose scheduling or just a coincidence?

I'll be seeing Ken Russell's The Devils in a couple of weeks. This is just a glimpse of the cut sequence that was the centrepiece of Ken Russell's black mass.

Just saw this picture of Andy Burnham on my browser. I refuse to believe the placement of the play icon button wasn't deliberate... 😳

In memory of Jeremy Thomas, I want to share what for me is his best production. Terry Gilliam's Tideland (2005), a dark horror film disguised as a fantasy film. It's a slow-burner, but it pays off. The critics at the time missed the point of this film, I was in tears at the end.

A very eloquent and thought provoking article. Something has changed for the worse in the countries mentality.
How The X Factor convinced Britain that being nice meant lying, a sad backstory could substitute for talent, and anyone refusing to applaud was the problem. Jason Arday may be the most tragic consequence of all.

Richard Madeley is on Good Morning Britain talking about shoplifting. No-one is bringing up the time that plank of wood stole a bottle of champagne from Tesco in 1994. 🤔

So sorry to hear about Bill Oddie…
A terrific bloke who survived many challenges…
I met him first when I auditioned for Doctor In The House in1968,which he co-wrote in the early years
RIP Bill
I'm reminded of a line from @charltonbrooker's How Videogames Changed The World.
"In the world of pop, middle class Kinks fans Blur are going head to head with dirge-spewing musical chimps' tea party Oasis in a battle literally no-one gave a shit about even at the time." 😛
Are you 52 or above? Then you, like me, are now older than John Humphrys was when he told the nation about the battle between ‘two of Britain’s biggest pop groups’.
The monocle-popping disdain on the words ‘pop groups’ wouldn’t be used by a newsreader today. It’s another world.

Scoop: SUPERGIRL's post-production was intense enough that by March, two competing cuts of the movie were testing, one by the studio, one by director Craig Gillespie. The cut that won only won by 2 points. The post-mordem you've been waiting for. hollywoodreporter.com/movies…
I thought Scary Movie would be the worst thing to darken our cinemas this year...
