My Saturday Night Robert Redford tribute movie. Classic and classy conspiracy thriller from when conspiracies were real. You have to sit down in a darkened room afterwards to recover from Redford and Dunaway’s combined charisma.

Another topical news bit for me in today’s BBC’s #BreakingTheNews Two hits in three episodes is a personal best, so quite pleased with myself.

Wimbledon starts today. Then it’s the Last Night of the Proms, Bonfire Night and Christmas.

My Saturday Night Play (at the RSC, Stratford): Titus Andronicus. Shakespeare’s bloody, feverish, shocking, blackly funny Roman history play. Picture shows the empty stage at the end after a series of murders, mutilations and other horrors.

A surprise first TV credit for #BreakingTheNews on Friday night. How exciting.

It’s been a struggle to get anything on recently so an out-of-the-blue credit is proof that hard work and keeping going pays off.

Been an awful good man

Finally saw “Napoleon” Underwhelmed. A big Joachim Phoenix hole where a performance should be.
