Just watched a film on Prime called About Time. It was enchanting, different and very enjoyable. If you want something to take your mind of the troubles in the world today this should do the trick
I’m watching the Maggie Hambling programme too, because I love her sculpture Scallop on Aldeburgh beach. I can’t say I take to her as a person, though.
Portrait Artist of the Year. Enjoy most of it, but having had a classical art training, I fail to understand why some artists use a photograph. The model is there for goodness sake !!
I’m watching The Last Tycoon on Amazon Prime. Based on F Scott Fitzgerald’s novel, it is set in Hollywood, then called Hollywoodland, during The Depression. The cast is very strong with Kelsey Grammer and Lily Collins in two of the lead roles. There are 9 episodes.
Started watching Greenleaf on Netflix a couple of nights ago and we are completely hooked. We have practically given up on regular TV only dipping in for the odd programme here and there.
I'm watching the second series of “Liar” on ITV Hub which I’m enjoying. It was first aired more than two years ago, I think, so won’t be available for much longer.
A fascinating documentary by John Pilger called The coming war on China. Then for some light relief ( which you need after watching that) the programme on ABBA.
I watched two further episodes of The Same Sky which sadly descended into farce. I maintain hopes of DNA. Has anyone watched any of Safe on C5? Just wondering whether to bother.
