    Michael Apted: TV documentary pioneer and film-maker dies aged 79
    Enthusiastic Contrafibularities3 replies
    Particularly for @Saint this will be sad news as I know he likes the "UP" series of documentaries. Film director Michael Apted, best known for the Up series of TV documentaries following the lives of 14 people every seven years, has died aged 79. He also directed Coal Miner's Daughter, Gorillas In The Mist and the 1999 Bond movie The World Is Not Enough. The original 7 Up in 1964 set out to document the life prospects of a range of children from all walks of life. The show was inspired by...

    No surprises here. Given what is happening over the pond I was inspired by The Clash and one song in particular when creating this caption, see below. What would you add to the picture as your caption?

    Some weeks back I made an obscure comment (in the panic thread) relating to the subject below. I'm pleased it has now broke into the public domain. Can you imaging how many people are working in law enforcement and being told not to download the app? How will this help track and trace, well I can't see it helping one bit.

    Mandy (BBC Comedy)
    Enthusiastic Contrafibularities4 replies
    A set of 6 short (15 min) comedy pieces by Diane Morgan (Cunk on Britain and After Life with Ricky Gervais) following the character Mandy. I have watched them all and found them to be most amusing. It's my kind of humour, probably not everyone's, but thought I would let you all know. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/...series-1-1-jobseeker

    DAMN !!!!!! My one and only chance and I missed it!!!! I could have taken her out for a few beers. It’s back to business for the Duchess of Cambridge, who’s continuing to carry out in-person royal engagements amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

    100,000 steps in a day : Never Again!!!
    Enthusiastic Contrafibularities16 replies
    👏🏆
    Here's the story I got the idea (after using my Fitbit and reading articles on the Internet) to walk 100,000 steps in one day. Following some basic calculations based on my walking profile I decided that starting at 6am I would finish by 9.30pm. So I set off at exactly 6am and cracked off the first 30,000 steps in no time, or at least it felt like no time. I took a short lunch break around 11:30, chargrilled chicken, a large Americano and a stem ginger biscuit courtesy of Caffé Nero and...

    Can't see a thread for this, but it may have been mentioned elsewhere. Unusually, I recently picked up one of her films, a blind buy. Not yet watched (The Hieress). 104, now that is a great innings by anyone's standard. she also looked quite healthy on the most recent pictures I could find. there can't be many around from her era of filmaking. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/ent...inment-arts-12717233 Mick Fleetwood has led tributes to his "dearest friend" and co-founder of Fleetwood Mac, Peter...

    Ian Holm & Willie Thorne
    Enthusiastic Contrafibularities5 replies
    It would seem I am somewhat behind on the news and missed the sad news of the passing of Ian Holm. I also noticed the snooker player Willie Thorne has passed away too. Ian Holm is a regular on my screen as Ash in Alien. One of my all time favourite films. Although many would now recognise him from Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit films (films I have yet to see). Not forgetting Chariots of Fire. Most years I see Willie Thorne out and about during the World Snooker Championships. 66. No age these ...

Do they not have processes in place to 'vet' their ads, do they not have legal departments that check against current law and legislation? It's quite hard...

    Particularly sad news for me because Kraftwerk were an integral and consistent band through my youth into adulthood. I remember going to a record store with my mum as a kid, buying Trans Europe Express on vinyl. The albums Man Machine and Computer World being popular at school.

    Apparently, today is the day that the film Blade Runner changes from a film about the future to one of the past. One of my favourite films. bit of a tribute thread, kind of. " I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die ".

    I saw the news tonight and was really impressed by this young woman. Whether you believe in what she says or not, she came across as a passionate, caring, confident and someone who believes in her cause. More power to her. It would appear that Trump is not a believer in climate change and is walking away from the Paris agreement, yet, ironically goes to chair a meeting on religious persecution. Watch Greta below.
