Am I the only one who starts rereading a play and then decides I must compare multiple adaptations?

Particularly looking forward to the Brian Friel which has the wonderful Justine Mitchell on the cover.

Directors - All this knowledge and enthusiasm can be yours!

Some days, I can’t seem to settle to any particular music and then a track from this pops up.
Phenomenal! Dury at his finest. The combination of absolute bangers with the jazz influences. Mwah!

I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Great writing that manages to touch lightly on politics, sexuality, race and class. The main character is an actor and the scenes around his career rang completely true.

Plus The Line of Beauty. (Booker winner) is 99p as an ebook.

I’m the guy they use for the newspaper photo whenever the markets crash. I was hired by Wall Street because my face has a certain forlorn je ne sais quoi that suggests a deep sense of loss. Pay isn’t great, but the perks are better than my old gig staring grimly at the sea after tragic shipwrecks

Loved this book. I can see why so many people are raving about Mieko. It’s a well worn trope - School outcasts being bullied but it’s so much more realistic and thought provoking than the norm.
Trigger warning- some graphic bullying/violence

When the Late DJ Steve Wright did his afternoon show on Radio 2, he used to have a feature called The Big Quiz. I took part and won a bunch of prizes including all the Eurythmics albums. Haven’t listened to them in ages but this is class!

Some advice please. Best place to find (relatively) obscure albums/tapes/cds?

Loving this show on Disney. Borderline silly- police procedural meets sitcom.Kaitlin Olsen is a high energy masterclass in comic acting.

Really enjoying this. I don’t really know much about Mogwai. Anyone recommend any of their other albums?
