    TV coverage

    Better this week but any purist will still watch RUK . Thought they hit a better median between newbies and pros and thats their aim so I think they're doing well . The Opening Show was good with Ollie Bell , Good popular features and nice paper review if light on race analysis Nice explainer on...

    I used to be a daily contributor here . Got an e-mail notification about this thread which is the only reason sadly that I am typing this . Ardross is right . Alan Morgan had standards and encouraged inclusivity from all points of view . I came back about a year ago for a few weeks and regretted...

    Kauto Star RIP

    Just heartbreaking , such a beautiful horse. Have to admit I was always in the Denman camp but over the years I developed a great respect for Kauto , the way he battled in his races in later years and even I shed a tear on the 5th king George , beautiful beautiful brave horse .

    Un de Sceaux

    This could be a year when the inferential stats don't apply . Don't know if anyone is practised in the dark arts of statistics . Not taking a chance , doing that 4 timer :)

    What are you watching

    I think the wire is the essence of what long form storytelling should be . Over 5 seasons they show a different strata of Baltimore society in each season and gradually bring them together to show the bigger picture , the projects , the blue collar workers , the media , the police and...

    Question Time

    No offence Warbler . I'm up for a healthy debate and if Im wrong I'll fall on my sword but Russel Brand criticises the bankers in the square mile but the companies who have funded his ventures are the same people who he wants to monster now .There was in an article recently exposing him as a...

    Question Time

    I watched it and thought that Russel Brand was finally exposed . Really credible question from a disabled guy in the audience. Earlier Brand had made a big deal of supporting elderly and disabled and then a disabled guy confronts him and says well why don't you stand . Brilliant (His answer was...

    Rape isn't about sex . its about control and violating you mentally . I'm sorry to say it worked . It happened to me a long time ago . I've never admitted publicly that this happened to me because of the shame . The reason I'm explaining this is that there is a project on twitter at the minute...

    academic now , right or wrong the court of public opinion has decided . I know this isn't provable and if he isn't guilt it is genuinely awful . I can sympathise with the "victim " though . I was raped when I probably wasn't in the best state to defend myself . I was asleep on a sofa after a...

    Glad there's another fan Icebreaker :) Wim Wenders is a genius . Really sad that Solveig Dommartin died when she was only 40 I think . She was so beautiful as the trapeze artist . I haven't watched the film in a few years but its up there with It's a Wonderful life for being life affirming . For...
