It really is, and it's still amazing. I've been hooked all over again since I started rewatching it.

I'm waiting for the Pitt to appear over here. Think it's later this month? Also I was never keen on Carter fire time around but this time, my god he's such a great character.

It's such a great opening scene

I've reached Loves Labour Lost 😢

I've never been. My friend was there last weekend and she liked it.

Leaving early, beat the crowds.

Infact I'd have probably got there and sacked the match off 🤣

I'll tell you one thing, when the third goal went in you wouldn't see me in the stadium for dust. I'd be snaffling tapas on some tree lined boulevard in downtown Madrid. So far play to any Spurs fans still there.

I hadn't realised it was one of his and when his name popped up about 5 mins in I was like, oh here we go...

Just watched Marty Supreme. Couldn't tell you if it's good or bad. It's just fucking exhausting.

I've not been in the new ground after 85 mins. I get off early so I can get a bus back to town and get home at a reasonable hour.

Yeah main station for trains from the south and out to coast. I'm pretty sure it's right by a hotel we've stayed in inside the station. A lovely hotel, buggered now like.

Absolutely awful isn't it. It's bloody huge.

I'm a big fan of the drama of it all, so theatrical as the ball sits in his little perspex box.

Do any other leagues do the "put the ball in a box and raffle it off" thing after a goal has been scored or is it just Serie A ?

It was going on one, two in the morning, and we were shooting what I felt was an important scene for me, when he makes an attempt to be quote-unquote straight, in a suit, and at the end of it he gets emotional and locks himself in the other room. And I felt like, I’m not getting what I want—I’m not happy with it. Mike was happy with it. He called me the next day and said, “I know you weren’t happy with the scene last night. Believe me, we wouldn’t have gone home if I had felt we weren’t getting it.” And then he sort of became my psychiatrist and said, “You find it difficult to be happy, don’t you? You find it difficult to enjoy things.” And I said, “Well, sometimes. Last night was about feeling too tired and not feeling I was reaching what I needed to reach for the scene.” He talked to me then about when he was making, I don’t know whether it was Virginia Woolf or The Graduate. He said, “I didn’t enjoy it for a second. I was worried about so many things.” And then he said, “You know, this is never going to happen again quite this way. You should try to allow yourself to enjoy this more. Take a minute a day, and then add a minute the next day, and another minute. Pretty soon, you’ll have hours of happiness.”

The Birdcage opened thirty years ago today, so in its honor, I want to share one of my favorite stories about Mike Nichols that didn't make it into my biography. This is from an interview I did with Nathan Lane.

Cats are gonna cat.

He knows he's been caught. And does not care one bit.

Every picture tells a story

Is this Billy bloody Britain?

🥰

I will never unsee the cowboy boots Tim Key had on his feet in Manchester tonight.

Crimewatch alison day murder 1986 SOLVED YouTube video by Crimewatch Reconstructions

This one really haunts me. youtu.be/eHldmzU_xi0?...

All on YouTube

I can't watch any true crime stuff. But I have a strange fascination with old episodes of Crimewatch, they're like a time machine back to 80s . I'll look up the places today and see how they've changed. It's completely awful when I read up on the case and it's not been solved.

Read the same story and had the exact same reaction.

Meant to ask you if you went to Bill Callahan the other week? He was great but yet again male audience member thinks we're all at a show where he's the star turn.

I did! Going tonight! Did you go last night?

I actively howl with laughter at how many times Silent Witness now chooses to teach us all about woke issues. And I'm the original Millie Tant.
