Virtually any Oasis song, apart from the ones that are rip-offs of either The Stones, The Who or T-Rex ;)

*I'm using the word "favourite" here quite wrongly ;)
Name your fav song by The Beatles.

I've loved Johnny since I was a kid, and I have so many favourite songs. But one I keep coming back to is this one. A relative rarity, which I first heard via a cover version by Nick Cave, back in the 80's.

Today is the birthday of artist Lou Fine (Nov. 26, 1914-July 24, 1971.) One of the greats of the Golden Age, he was the artist that early creators like Jack Kirby wanted to be like.

He was wonderfully natural and able to convey so much with so little. He is *extraordinary* as Renfield in the BBC Dracula with Louis Jourdan.

The best Renfield. #TheFilmCrowd
RIP Jack Shepherd (1940-2025), one of the most significant among Play for Today's endlessly rotating constellation of ensemble actors. 'All Good Men' (1974) & 'Through the Night' (1975) were his best PfT roles. It was wonderful to have three phone interviews with him in 2022: he was generous & wise.

Have I ever racially abused anyone?
"Never in a hurtful or insulting way"
"Not with intent"
In other words, "yes".
