I got got. Watched it on iplayer and I only had 30 mins to spare so when they put on the repeat of A Quiet Night In I went and did something else. Later on I saw people on facebook talking about it so went back and watched it later. Really enjoyed it. Something different and clever (as per usual) and good halloween fun.

the woman in the local shop is called Suzanne , the other day I told her to be beware of the devil, she said why? I said cos dandy livingstone said so

Went to see the film about Neil Armstrong, First Man, at the weekend. I thought it was superb. It's quite slow paced and talky, but utterly engrossing. Really brings home how much danger the astronauts were putting themselves in to take part in the space programme and the impact it had on their families. The spaceflight scenes are filmed mostly from the cramped, claustrophobic perspective of the cockpit and even though we know he got there in the end (oh yes he did, conspiracy theorists) the journey towards that first moon landing is just incredible.
