Very sad to hear about the death of Gene Hackman. A fabulous actor who loved his craft more than the limelight.

Over lunch yesterday, a friend and I were discussing the BBC’s early 70s eco-drama Doomwatch, and how we’d like a chance to see it again. And, lo, as if my summons, @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social are showing it from 17th January starting with ‘The Plastic Eaters’. Here’s Robert Powell.

Years ago, my son was bullied at school, and the school did nothing. Last week, I saw the now 20+ bully at the pool. He left his clothes, towel, and wallet out instead of using a locker. I took them all and used the cash to buy my son a pint.
