A tale of the 'Sleeping Knight' variety is recorded about an ancient barrow near #Cirencester. In 1685 two treasure hunters woke up a figure in armour holding two severed heads. It lashed out at them with a 'truncheon' and they made a quick exit as the mound collapsed.

The BBC, quite consciously, sets out to demean and belittle trans people. This is both morally contemptible and in breach of its Charter obligations. We've made it super easy for you to write to the BBC and tell it to stop.

The BBC must stop attacking trans people | Good Law Project
The right wing accusations of ‘pro-trans’ bias are back to front. It’s time for the BBC to live up to its duty to be impartial on trans issues.

Gets the narrative tone right and has a good lead, just feeling a bit 1980s TV in places. #TheFilmCrowd

This action scene feels a bit out of place to me, like they were to trying to impress the viewer. Also when the police says 'Freeze', isn't it easier if they just wait to phone their lawyer?' #TheFilmCrowd
