Ah, I'm afraid there is a problem with that proposal at the moment.

DDP pick Pauline Hunt's case raised in question 1 at Prime Minister's Questions today.

Darrol Blake who directed The Stones of Blood for Doctor Who is apparently 82 today! Directed episodes of The Tomorrow People and Doomwatch and was a production designer for Adam Adamant Lives! Looking at his output he's also directed for EastEnders, Coronation Street, Crossroads, Emmerdale and Brookside. Produced and directed Tucker's Luck. Apparently he created the original Blue Peter set. Possible obit given his work when he goes.

Report of the death of Chuck Barksdale of The Dells, US group who seemingly only had one UK chart single. But it is a good one. IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4274460/ UK #15 (1969) Love Is Blue (I Can Sing A Rainbow)

Still waiting on a Palestinian rocket strike. Australia made their performance even better than their national final. And it's likely to win imho. Also, possible fatality if it all goes wrong! If you haven't seen it please have a look, even through your fingers if needed.

Wouk's got the Philosopher's Stone! It all makes sense now......

I disagree with Edmonds' personal views as much as I disagree with Sting's personal views. Doesn't stop me having an admiration for his shows and performances. Kyle though. I believe he is sick in the head like Ricky Gervais for example. They are out and out bullies who make entertainment out of bullying people. And that can only lead to a confirmation that such behaviour is acceptable. The kind of "Why aren't you normal like me?" attitude akin to the "You are fat/disbled/bald/wear glasses/got no teeth, if only you worked harder you could be normal" whatever that is. The Island show I've never seen, I'm assuming that's different in that high maintenance vain people go on and find they are not quite as beautiful on the inside and the requirement that the general public demand they remain as beautiful but flawed and stay in the papers because without that they have nothing. But I'm guessing purely from the format. Should have realised people were going to die from being on the show as soon as my dad started watching it....

Anyone keeping up with QOs? It's a bloodbath out there... None of 'em mine, mind. Ha!

I'll say the next fall will kill him. The fall of 2019.....

George Layton looks fantastic. Don't think much of Dickie's taste in necklaces....medication and keys, maybe?
