Part one of the BBC radio documentary that we helped with recently is now up on BBC Sounds. Bognor first, with film historian Ellen Cheshire and actor, director, Kevin Short, both locals. πŸ‘ Littlehampton next month, Arundel in April. πŸ˜€ www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... ##sussexfilm #westsussex

For people in the UK, David Lynch's beautifully tender film The Straight Story is streaming on Channel 4 for the next 11 days. Some people say it isn't "Lynchian" - they're talking rot, it's sublime. Certainly cheered me up in this rather dismal moment in history. www.channel4.com/programmes/t...

FIVE players back from injury! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ˜€ #COYS #THFC

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

No fun being a Spurs fan right now. We could do with some lady luck in huge doses for rest of the season. Levy needs to make a statement saying he's behind Ange for at least until June. But of course he won't. His communication skills with fans has always been dreadful. #COYS #THFC #AngeIn

Peter Weir’s β€˜Witness’ at 40: A Deep, Subtle and Complex Social Comment Disguised as a Police Thriller cinephiliabeyond.org/peter-... An incredible film.

#COYS #THFC I am nervous and excited beyond words. Nobody gives us much hope tonight, but please may the footballing gods shine on us this evening. πŸ˜€πŸ‘πŸ™πŸ‘

@timofnewbury.bsky.social I've moved to Littlehampton, slowly working my way around their pubs, seeing what ales are around. πŸ‘ One pub has Wadworth's 6X coming, not had that for ages, love it! πŸ˜€ In the meantime, enjoyed these two. πŸ‘

Get in there my Spurs, cracking result. Still 100% Ange In! πŸ‘πŸ˜€πŸ‘ #COYS #THFC @tottenhamhotspur.com

Yesterday's event in Littlehampton Museum was a success, 50-100% attendance throughout the day. πŸ˜€ Thanks to everyone who attended, our brilliant guest speakers & the museum team. πŸ‘ Apart from the BBC Radio Sussex doc I'll be working on this Fri, Feb will be a time for recharging my batteries! πŸ˜€

2 local radio interviews done, promoting our FREE Littlehampton Museum film event tomorrow.

Still backing Ange 100%. It's a horrible time to be a Spurs fan right now, but hovering close to the relegation zone is not unfamiliar territory for us older fans. I just want Levy to hold his nerve, stick with Ange and let him fix this once key players are back. #COYS #THFC @tottenhamhotspur.com

In the #BognorRegis area there's a free monthly magazine called Sussex Views, I've written an article for it, about the birth of Arun Film and its speedy development, ideal timing before our FREE Littlehampton Museum film event this Saturday. πŸ‘ #filmsky #WestSussex @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social

#OnThisDay 24 January 1983 CRISIS OVER CHANNEL 4 - ITV Desperate for Cash - ITV chiefs will launch a rescue operation tonight to ease the crippling cash crisis caused by an ailing Channel 4. From 6pm the rules covering commercials are being relaxed to allow an extra 2 minutes in peak time . . .

Aww! Tom Baker blowing out candles for his 91st birthday on Monday. β€οΈπŸŽ‚ #DoctorWho

Anyone who ever again suggests that the GOP is the party of the police or the party of law and order should be laughed out of the room. There has never been anything like this before in modern US history: the president pardoning people who we all saw on live TV assaulting police.

I understand that managers get sacked for this kind of form, but whoever comes in is still going to be stuck with the same amount of injuries. I'd rather stick with Ange and give him the chance to fix this. #COYS #THFC #AngeIn
