A true classic.

Still love RH&TVs despite my disappointment at finding out that Blank Generation was a rewriting of a US comedybrecord.
Best DR for ages. More crime films requested. I saw Internal Affairs at the cinema and my main memory was walking out after thinking βWhatβs a nice girl like Cindy Crawford doing knocking about with that bastard? Which I suppose is the ultimate compliment an actor can be paid.

a small brick building in disrepair. It has shutters over the doors and holes in the roof. A lot of plants and trees are growing over and around it
a back road in Horden with some plants in the foreground and single storey buildings further down on either side
an old billiard hall, single storey with its windows boarded up. It's in good repair.
two terraced houses in red brick, with the ground floor windows and doors boarded up.
We were in Horden yesterday filming a brother and sister who face eviction from their childhood home because of 'regeneration' (see: gentrification). More soon. In the meantime here are some images of Horden from recent years.

Fascinating time with Niall Hammond and the team at the historic Heighington Station in County Durham, the world's first purpose built railway station. The Friends of Stockton & Darlington Railway own, and are now restoring the building. A long road ahead, but incredible progress made. #Railways
Lovely to meet siblings Ray and Moira, and their friend Keith, yesterday. Horden's regeneration plan means their childhood home would be demolished and replaced with new housing they couldn't afford. They support regeneration, but not at the cost of the house they've lived in for 60 years.
Not an easy watch by any means but every needs to see Judgment at Nuremberg at least once. Especially NOW.
Montgomery Clift's testimony is devasting.
Outrageously lucky.
Rub the cocker Al out and you can use it for his next job Which heβll surely be looking for tomorrow.
A lovely read. Seems like a lovely business too.

Recently, Korea banned ticket reselling.
If you try to resell a concert/play/game/event ticket for more than you paid, the fine is 50X what you tried to charge. Anyone can turn you in and collect 10%.
So long, scalpers.
(Apparently BTS tickets were up to 11k until this passed)

Maybe try reading your own biography before replying to others, maybe try taking into account the country the person youβre being unkind too is from, maybe try being nice. Maybe youβd be best off over the road.

MvdV using one hand to pull the Palace lad back waits until him and his dance partner get inside the box before grabbing him with both hands! As a Sunderland fan Iβve seen a helluva lot of relegations and this clown show stuff is what happens when you are going down.
Why did the Palace keeper wander out from between the posts there? If heβd stayed in between them the shot wouldβve hit him.
Love the title though Iβd have overegged the pudding and went for βBadgers Badgesβ myself.
