Just FYI i popped for one of those AIs that takes my phone calls I have to apologise as hes awfully short tempered. I know he sounds like me putting on a robot voice, but obviously I’d never be that rude. I’d get rid of him but he’s very efficient.

Harking back to original Day of the Jackal Eddie Redmayne is sporting a very natty neckerchief/cravat in The Jackal. I’ve always been fond of a cravat, a WW2 era Royal Navy uncle often wore one as they all wanted to be Noel Coward, I wonder if polymarket takes bets on resurgent fashion trends.
