Booyah!

Here's a clue

"4291.."

I've just discovered London Kills. It's in the 2.15 slot used for Shakespeare and Hathaway and Father Brown but it's a lot grittier.

I saw it was starting this week and then realised (I think) that it's the third series. Anyway I'm watching series 1 and I'm hooked. It also features Sharon Small who I used to be ambivalent about but there is something about her.

Anyway I'd recommend it to anyone who likes GOOD police dramas.

I'm watching a newish film "The Leisure Seeker" starring the iconic and charismatic Donald Sutherland and the ever-magnificent Helen Mirren.

The title refers to what we in Britain would call a campervan in which the two above stars (an elderly married couple) take off to seek adventure.

I say "elderly" because Donald is 84 and Helen is 74. Notwithstanding their considerable ages, both remain very young at heart and I'm a huge fan of both of them. I've always thought Donald immensely charismatic and, in the days before I became woke, I always saw Helen as the physical embodiment of the wow factor. Even today, if I try to imagine what an unwoke man might think of her, I cannot help but be absolutely certain he'd think she was still a beauty in every way.

I've only just started watching the film so it could be terrible or it could be wonderful.

Is that on tv, if so which channel

I've just finished watching it and it's absolutely wonderful.

The title is grossly misleading: when you first see it, you think it refers to a person. A little while later, you realise it refers to a campervan and when the elderly couple set off on it, you don't really have a clue what's going to happen.

However, the misleading and inappropriate title apart, it's a marvellous film and one I shall never forget.
