Thankfully each episode is only thirty minutes long ( many of the best series these days are thirty minutes long) because I had to binge watch all of it last night. I wish I could have a bout of amnesia so I could watch it afresh. It had everything, I laughed, cried and was on the edge of my seat at one time. In fact there’s one thing in it that, every time I think about it my eyes well up….(they’re doing it now)…
Winnie whippet has to go out for a last wee at midnight; if not she gets me up in the early hours, so I have to watch tv till then!

Classic!
Wendy Hiller was a seriously under-rated actor. I didn't realise until I watched Pygmalion many years ago. She absolutely stole it.

On DVD...
I Confess
Hitchcock classic with the brilliant Montgomery Clift, in brilliant form with Anne Baxter and Karl Malden, about the priest to whom a murder has been confessed.

Yesterday afternoon The ODESSA File was on TV so I decided to watch it. I have the DVD but haven't watched it for a while. It's a very watchable film.
I haven't read the book but it made me go back and re-read the relevant chapter in Forsyth's autobiography (The Outsider) to find out what parts were fact and which fiction.
A wee bit like The Day of the Jackal, it's a low budget film but very watchable and, like that first novel, relies on fact for its foundations.

I recently reread the book and was surprised how much of it differs from the film. That said both are excellent in their own right.
