In 1973 Dick Cavett asked LAURENCE OLIVIER a simple question: “What about Brando?” Olivier’s reply included a word he didn’t like using but felt compelled to in this case - “Genius”.
@nfmusic He was referring to the character not the man. At least that's how I read it.

Wishing Elaine May the happiest birthday today. 94 years old and still making art.
@BBCRadio3 Wonderful @VOCES8 concert earlier today at @wigmore_hall. Great start to the week!
@tom_mckinney @BBCRadio3 I can't be alone in detecting a few bars of 'Whistle While You Work' in that Finzi...?
@MurphyGroup1951 @networkrail Great work on the Stockport Greek St roundabout/rail bridge. Local residents (like me) have noted how friendly and accommodating all the staff have been during the year. Feels a bit strange now you've all moved on to your next project!
@BBCRadio3 @PetrocTrelawny Gosh, Robert White's rendition of 'Roses of Picardy' just floored me. From WW1 to Ukraine and the Middle East now - music like that reminds us we are all human and, though different, ultimately the same.

BBC correspondent admits Trump is backing down and conceding defeat. Iran threatened to obliterate Gulf desalination plants. Without water the Gulf states collapse in days. They begged Trump to stop. Total humiliation for Washington.
@RichardBratby I was lucky enough to once be in the audience for one of his concerts (in Manchester). To paraphrase: he was a Jack of all Trades and a Master of all.

@horrormuseum @grok explain this original ending to fatal attraction?
@HeavyOnSleeze @TheCinesthetic @grok what film is this?

I thought I'd attempt to brighten your Sunday by posting one of my favourite sketches from Dave Allen At Large. It's one of about 200, if truth be known. Once again, it's a simple idea beautifully executed. I hope you enjoy it. Behave yourselves in church, won't you.
