September 30th 18 A -Ha - Take On Me 12 Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This) +4 04 Tears For Fears- Everybody Wants To Rule The World -6 I own GH albums by all three artists but only have studio albums by the other two

My opinion (fwiw) is that he was included for the round. If his behaviour warrants a further ban then this should be for future rounds of the games but I am not the game runner

I am not a huge KM fan. I think she has managed her career very well and always comes across as likeable. However, Can't Get You Out of my Head is by far and away her most iconic track and deserves the plaudits here. it is the only KM track that has made it onto my ipod

Both A-ha and Eurythmics had probably less good songs under consideration in the No.1s round but there are better Tears for Fears songs

Bit late to this particular party but last night we streamed the Barbie movie It is absolutely pitched perfect with a fantastic cast, script and message I can get that it is not for some people but the over-reaction in some portions of the media actually proves the point that the film is trying to make. A lot has focused on Margot Robbie in the title role but I think that people should also recognise just how good America Ferrera is. My wife and daughter went to the cinema to see this a few weeks ago and the both admitted that they cried and I know that my wife does not normally cry at movies (I do she doesn't)

29/09/23 30 Eurythmics- Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) +4 28 A-Ha -Take On Me 20 Tears For Fears- Everybody Wants To Rule The World -6 I think this might be my last vote in this game

I have seen 11 of those live on stage and only one of those are dead

No but Star Trek Generations was

Michael Gambon a hit for me here

Following the death of Michael Gambon I have updated the ten earliest winners of the Evening Standard Theatre award for Best Actor 1980 Tom Courtenay 1983 Derek Jacobi 1984 Ian McKellen 1998 Kevin Spacey 1999 Stephen Dillane 2000 Simon Russell Beale 2001 Alex Jennings 2003 Michael Sheen 2006 Rufus Sewell 2007 Patrick Stewart Michael Gambon won in 1987 and 1995 which still leaves the three earlier winners from the eighties followed by the much younger winners in the late ninties and early noughties. However, the new addition to the list is the veteran RSC performer Patrick Stewart who would probably be considered alongside the top 3 in terms of potential longevity rather than the other six

Of the seven remaining I will be happy with one of five of them winning. The current Top 2 are my Top 2
