1804. Oceans are now Battlefields.

In the South China Sea a British convoy worth almost £1bn today is spotted by the French.

It should be a massacre.

Instead, Commodore Nathanial Dance is about to defeat a French battle squadron using some paint and the most overplayed hand in #navalHistory. /1 🧵

I've spent the past year talking to James Murdoch about his father's "twisted" behavior, the mind games at the family-counseling retreat, how Fox News really works, and the war over his family's media empire. My cover story for The Atlantic's April edition: theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

On 5 January 1968: the BBC began filming "Tolkien in Oxford". #Tolkien talks about trees, languages, and, of course The Hobbit and #LOTR. The BBC released the full documentary online, and, if you have a spare 27 minutes, you can watch here: www.bbc.co.uk/webarchive/h...
Release - Tolkien in Oxford
John Ezard meets with JRR Tolkien at his home, walking him through the Oxford locations that he loves while hearing the author's own views about his successful fantasy novels.

a thing I loved about David Lynch that so few got right was that you were always confused about whether you should be disgusted or turned on by his films. Is this horror or is it hot? Is it dread or anticipation? All the questions he would create, he would let only you answer

Let’s take a quick look at LOTR from Sauron’s perspective, where it resembles nothing so much as a counter-espionage spy thriller.
