'Don't get big-headed,' warned a family member who could hear more clearly what they were saying, 'they think you're Philomena Cunk.'

If someone beats a British player at Wimbledon they really shouldn’t be interviewed on court afterwards. It comes across as gloating I’m afraid. Instead they should offer to withdraw so the British player can go through. It would show great sportsmanship and endear them to the British public. 👍🇬🇧

This is correct.
To be sure it's James Ivory's birthday we're celebrating, or are about to, but I never like to pass up a chance to say that Julian Sands's performance in A Room with a View is almost supernaturally good.
