Updated thread on The Lost King film:
I’m digging over old ground but I have to challenge Steve Coogan's line. He claims it’s all true (as has Philippa Langley): Langley will be celebrated for her achievement, Richard Taylor & his personal gripes will be forgotten
So what’s the real story? 1/15

I saw your posts! Yes it’s a fab area. I love Dunstanburgh too, a little further north but another distinctive outline

Wow, that’s one heck of a sky. The silhouette of the abbey is instantly recognisable. Fabulous.

And another thing… in historic properties why are the little feral idiots allowed to climb walls - it’s a C14th ruin not a feckin’ playground.

Well done to all - hard work pulling it together 👏👏👏

If you live in a major city, you may have noticed more people wearing bandanas around their neck, as the accessory has made a small comeback. Typically made from cotton, the bandana — distinct from the ascot — has a long history in working class aesthetics, as it serves a practical function.

I’m sharing this because silence only protects the aggressors. If you ever witness something like this — please don’t look away. Check in with the person being targeted. A small act of kindness can make a huge difference.

We can't be sure John Constable was doing any manipulation, or was even aware of the pattern emerging in this painting from around 1820 - his work ends up like nature itself, a phenomenon in which we can see shapes, but where no conscious shape-making has taken place.
