Thought this was broadly great, although the first act stronger than the second. Really fun staging! #ASongOfIceAndFire

Today’s Dr Who things are all like “The Solivagant Doctor and Jonty Adventures” and I have a little pang for the adventures of the Dominie and Alice.
My ongoing “gets my goat” issue remains the “Ricardians” and their bizarre fixation on the blessèd Richard III, a man in all likelihood involved in the murder of children. They now seem to think England would be a Catholic European utopia had he prevailed.
Strong recommend for #DrWho The Hallamshire Incident: best Whittaker audio and more evidence that Rochana Patel is one of Big Finish’s MVPs.
Only about 4 people will care but I have wanted the very limited edition #Babylon5 Shadow Sentient figure for donkey’s years and finally managed to fine one at a not outrageous price.
Of all the TV landmark moments I saw live this has to be the one that lives closest to my heart youtu.be/fGcqkqB-pIE?...

Genuinely was shocked to read Sam Neill had died. Always gave such a grounded performance which I think why he was so often sought out to front films like Jurassic Park and Event Horizon. And selfishly it’s made me feel very old.
As 12th July is the day England was formed, it’s kind of cool to have an England win on the same day. Happy 1,099th birthday, anyway 🏴
