We just finished watching this. My Wife worked out the main plot premise in the first fifteen minutes. Still, all the cast did a sterling job and it was was well filmed. I wonder who's boat they borrowed? 🎬

I've not reviewed this MCU film before. Avengers: Infinity War from 2018 is available for a limited time free to watch as long as you have access to BBC iPlayer.

Only my second ever time watching it so thanks to @tedsalmon.bsky.social here's what I think.

For over 40 years, the Tour de France has been a fixture on British terrestrial tv, bringing the spectacle and drama of the world's greatest cycling race to living rooms across the country. This year, ITV broadcast their 25th consecutive edition of Tour coverage and their last. I will miss that show

Avengers: Infinity War will be on BBC1 📺 on Sat 27th July at 8:00pm. As far as I can tell, 'Thor: Ragnarok', the previous film in the MCU's 'The Infinity Stones' saga has never been shown on UK Terrestrial TV. 🤔

He and all his World Wrestling Federation ring mates gave me loads of enjoyment back in the 1990's so this is how I want to remember this iconic entertainment wrestler. In the ring and in the 20th Century. 😔 #riphulkhogan

🚀 Fifty years ago today, two Russian cosmonauts and three American astronauts linked up their two spacecrafts in a special mission to start the peaceful collaboration of nations in Space. They called it the Apollo Soyuz Test Project or ASTP. I can clearly remember that first historic handshake. 🤝

Could this version of the Man of Steel finally be talked about in the same breath as the classic 1978 Richard Donner film with the immortal Christopher Reeve?

Thanks again to @tedsalmon.bsky.social with just a few hours after leaving the cinema, here's my answer. 🎬

If like me, you're a fan of Formula One motor racing then this latest cinema release might be right up your street. 🏎️ Available in IMAX too!

OK! When I first heard it, I thought you'd crossed the Thames. I know that part of the City of London quite well and visited a few of the locations in your podcast quite recently during The Big Egg Hunt of asst decorated egg shaped sculptures all over the Capital hosted by the Elephant Family group.

Just finished listening 🎧 to the latest episode on #Spotify and I just wanted to ask a question. When you'll finally arrive at the Thames, you say that, "The Tate Modern is to your right"? However in the video, you stay on the north side of the river in the City of London opposite the Tate Modern. 🤔

Whale on the Wharf: taken earlier today at Canary Wharf using the Panorama mode. A bit of extra editing done in the phone's own editing suite.

This is a brand now sculpture made out of stuff, (mostly plastic) found in the oceans. 🐋
