The New York property market, from which Witkoff emerged, must be absolutely awash with dirty Russian cash. Trump Tower was full of Russian mobsters apparently.

Keep an eye out for Passe Crassane pears, the ones with the stalk dipped in red wax. Absolutely the ne plus ultra of the pear world.

Survivors is a terrific song.

Had that happen to me in Borough Market, where I was forcibly instructed that the Spanish black pudding I wanted to buy was called MORE-THI-YA.

True Grace 'Library' perhaps? Earl of East do something similar too, I think.

Biggest crime in that film is Delon's mustache.

My mum had a meal there and thought it was shit.

So many restaurants have come and gone on that site over the years that I've always felt it was cursed. 6 years is actually not a bad run.

In Matewan, one of the all-time great villains. It was good to see him again in OBAA.

Satantango is very good indeed.

What would be the best Vila-Matas book to tackle?

He was a great role model for boys growing up in the 70s. I loved him.

Always liked Bob Monkhouse's 'Crying with Laughter'. Good book too.

Would probably up his chances of getting a Nobel.

It's a very good piece. The books took a dip at that point too.

Ideal matinee material!

De Sica is superb. It got a spontaneous round of applause when I saw it at the BFI recently. Always love it when that happens.

Mel Smith. Yes, he was. Plenty of characters at that school.

That was co-written by Terry Kyan, who taught me french at school. He used to play us recordings of Life of Brian. We'd have been about 10. Naturally, we loved it.

Enjoyed that. Thanks.
