Cripes... the new BBC adaptation of #LordOfTheFlies is exceptional. A brilliant telling of this darkest and most timelessly-relevant of tales, with strong performances from the young cast, some daring, haunting camerawork and absolutely no shying away from the visceral violence of the material (1/2)

For a physics and philosophy graduate could there be better theatrical news?! (Helps that it is also an excellent play and it looks like they are putting together a stellar cast) #anotherdraft www.hampsteadtheatre.com/whats-on/202...

Very interesting (as always) data from The Taub Center in Israel www.taubcenter.org.il/en/states/20.... One stat that really stood out - in 2025 Israel will have had the lowest population growth % in its entire history, and also the highest number of emigrants (with 2026 possibly having even more)

#Hamnet - wow what a film. Absolutely stunning acting from Mescal and, especially, Buckley. Yes it’s melodramatic to the point of emotional manipulation but isn’t it for film to put in pictures and sounds the feelings that make us all human?

Whilst broadly I think #StrangerThings stuck the landing, and it remains a wonderful story told with emotion and awesome action, ultimately it could have been ever better with a bit more narrative bravery. Also the last hour is Return of the King-esque and that isn't a compliment

Mum - amazingly - managed to make her Yuzu tree fruit this year, so we tried a Yuzu Lychee Martini for the Christmas cocktail this year. I can confirm it’s bloody delicious

Agree with this. The best thing I watched on TV this year and on so many levels an absolute masterpiece www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...
The 50 best TV shows of 2025: No 1 – Adolescence
An exceptional cast, astonishing directing and the talent discovery of the decade – not to mention a plot so of-the-moment it was discussed in parliament. This may actually have been perfect TV

Some thoughts on the new Avatar film:
1) yes it far, far too long
2) yes the action scenes are becoming a bit samey
3) the new fire tribe are cool baddies
4) the premise of the world - an interventionist god exists and will save the Navi if their faith is strong enough - remains fascinating

In a little more than two months, we have had the worst day for British Jewry and the worst day for Australian Jewry. Jews must - MUST - be safe to pray in our synagogues and celebrate in the public realm. This isn't a "nice to have". It's a basic pre-condition for our liberal democratic societies
