Tusk is really rising to the occasion www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/w...

Am I the only one who starts rereading a play and then decides I must compare multiple adaptations? Particularly looking forward to the Brian Friel which has the wonderful Justine Mitchell on the cover. Directors - All this knowledge and enthusiasm can be yours! #TheatreSky #TheaterSky #Actor

Some days, I can’t seem to settle to any particular music and then a track from this pops up. Phenomenal! Dury at his finest. The combination of absolute bangers with the jazz influences. Mwah! #MusicSky #NowPlaying

I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Great writing that manages to touch lightly on politics, sexuality, race and class. The main character is an actor and the scenes around his career rang completely true. #BookSky #JustFinished Plus The Line of Beauty. (Booker winner) is 99p as an ebook.

I’m the guy they use for the newspaper photo whenever the markets crash. I was hired by Wall Street because my face has a certain forlorn je ne sais quoi that suggests a deep sense of loss. Pay isn’t great, but the perks are better than my old gig staring grimly at the sea after tragic shipwrecks

Well worth a read! Cause for optimism, I think. www.theguardian.com/stage/2025/f... #TheatreSky #Actor

#JustFinished Loved this book. I can see why so many people are raving about Mieko. It’s a well worn trope - School outcasts being bullied but it’s so much more realistic and thought provoking than the norm. Trigger warning- some graphic bullying/violence #BookSky

Back 49 years for this and Love and Affection still takes me back to teenage me suffering the pangs and arrows of unrequited love. #MusicSky #NowPlaying

Love this video. a mini masterpiece. #MusicSky www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLxp...

This is what I post from

Just wanted to recommend this. Should be essential viewing for all boys at an early age. Great job @debbiehoward.bsky.social directorsnotes.com/2025/01/15/d...

Looks like Trump is going to Make America Greet Again (Scottish meaning)

When the Late DJ Steve Wright did his afternoon show on Radio 2, he used to have a feature called The Big Quiz. I took part and won a bunch of prizes including all the Eurythmics albums. Haven’t listened to them in ages but this is class! #MusicSky #NowPlaying

Some advice please. Best place to find (relatively) obscure albums/tapes/cds? #MusicSky

Loving this show on Disney. Borderline silly- police procedural meets sitcom.Kaitlin Olsen is a high energy masterclass in comic acting. #Actor

If you're interested in what's going on in Ukraine and world developments that affect the war there, I cannot recommend this podcast highly enough. #Podcast #Ukraine #SlavaUkraini www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Really enjoying this. I don’t really know much about Mogwai. Anyone recommend any of their other albums? #MusicSky #Mogwai #NowPlaying #NewMusic

Tarka and Dora are pleased to see I’m home ( Nothing to do with me turning up the heating and it almost being their teatime!) #Animals #Pets

Because accommodation during the Edinburgh Festivals is not expensive enough

Now I understand why all these women keep following me and want to have fun. Turns out they just can’t help themselves! www.newsweek.com/evolution-hu...

Just about to start the third Prefect Dreyfus Emergency. The other two were terrific page turners. Epic sci-fi combined with the pace of a police procedural. #BookSky #SciFi

Cheeky last minute booking for some filming tomorrow. Nice bit of comedy impro filming down in Hoxton amongst the fashionistas and hipsters (sure I'll fit right in!). Still, gotta love an Indie Coffee Shop. #Actor #ScreenActor #Comedy #Impro

It's (Inter)National Hug Day. Just what many of us need today.

Just wanted to recommend this book as entertaining and educating ( but not in a hit you over the head way). Doon has continued to ‘kick against the pricks’ even when it might be detrimental to her career. It can be done! #BookSky #TheatreSky

Please meet Shakespeare, Apollo and Patsy, our three mini donkeys. Some of the kindest, gentlest critters you could ever meet. #animals #pets

Hi. I’m Mike and I’m a bibliophile. I love reading but I also love books. One of my favourite editions is Oxford World’s Classics. Lovely design and a pleasure to read. They flop open delightfully without damaging the spine and the type is perfect. And so many of them! #BookSky

The post 20 whatevers are a great way of finding people who share your tastes. However, I would love some context if people have stories or reasons. Also, am I the only one who would prefer them as individual posts rather than seeing threads jamming my threads (including stuff already posted)?

Some people think the one side of the table controversy was explained by the limitations of the camera set up. Actually, it was a deliberate attempt to draw comparisons with the last supper. c.f ''Mr Humphries as Christ" (OUP 1972)

Getting seriously funky this morning. Love the album cover. #MusicSky #NowPlaying #Jazz #JazzFunk #CoolCats

Julian wants you to know that if you need a hug, he’s here for you! #Animals #Pets
