South Riding BBC Episode 1 of 3 Dodgy accents notwithstanding, it was interesting.

Mobile Suit Gundam Ultraman Astro Boy Our local shopping street sports flying statues of Ultraman at both it's entrances and an Ultraman statue outside the station. The sign says Welcome to Ultraman Town There's no explaining the wacky Japanese guys. I gave up years ago !

Public Speaking - Martin Scorsese (HBO) (2010) Amazingly interesting talk marathon.

Second episode of The Promise. Excellent.

Mike Tyson Iron Man Tin Men

The Promise Episode one ( Channel Four) Absolutely first rate, better than a lot of films I've seen recently.

Basil Fawlty Riders Of The Purple Sage Laurel & Hardy

Chicago Code Ep 2 Has possibilities, it might turn into a really good series. Hope it fairs better than Terriers. A shame such a good show was axed. Also watching the last episode of Any Human Heart After that I'll watch the first two episodes of The Promise.

I really didn't like Match Point. Woody had no sense of modern British vernacular. Some of the dialogue was painful to listen to. Also the premise of a supposedly working class, my arse, tennis coach worming his way into upper crust society was ludicrous. A complete dud imho.

My favourite period is probably the cluster of films he did from the early '80's , namely Zelig, Broadway Danny Rose, Purple Rose Of Cairo, Hannah & Her Sisters and Radio Days. Of the early period it has to be Annie Hall and Manhattan. Of his late period films, I thought the first two of the 'British Trilogy' ie Match Point and Scoop were a low point but thankfully the recent You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger is much better. Sweet & Lowdown was great, as was Husbands & Wives,and Everyone Says I Love You.I loved Whatever Works and was surprised at the many negative reviews it received. Just goes to show what a subjective thing humour is. I personally couldn't care less about his personal life.

An unexpected delight on NHK, The Toshiko Akiyoshi Jazz Orchestra Shanghai concert. Augmented by three Chinese musicians on some numbers and Monday Michiro on vocals for the last number. A great concert.
