Controversy in Portrait Artist of the Year last night.  For the 2nd year running, the judges (& what a pretentious bunch they are) overlooked the obviously talented Portrait artists and opted for the quirky, different but not as good option.

Last years winner painted Lenny Henry for the national gallery. He favvered Leon off Curb your enthusiasm.

Just watched the last episode of Day of the Jackal. Cracking series which I might binge watch again this weekend.

Cant wait for Series 2

Aye, it was a very good series.....

Sort of glad there's another series, but partly think it should've been a standalone, therefore meaning the Jackal fails/dies...

Not a chance.

James Bond would never be a ginger.

Daniel Craig was a flaxen haired anglo saxon

Meh.

The bloke off Day of the Jackal is proper ginger. He's got that freckly skin and everything.

@gonzo what would happen, if James Bond was a ginger? And also the metal toothed villain Jaws?

MasterChef professionals final on now. Really enjoyed this series.

Exceptional. Was pleased for the lad who won it after what he has been through.

There is nothing that James Bond 'would never be' now. I'm expecting a non binary Afro Caribbean amputee with a mullet.

That's more palatable than him being a ginger.

Within the same post there we have the words binary and ginger. Cold sweats down Wigan way in case it might involve some sort of election fuck up again.

I take it folk have been watching The Mirror and the Light - been the best thing on TV this year

Just seen some reviews. One to watch over the festive period. Is it best to have seen the previous instalments?

My favourite two shows this year are The Bear and Disclaimer.

Not TV, but also just listened to Gareth Southgate's desert island discs. great listen, even for those who felt alienated by him. Football aside, I could never understand why some people hated him so much. Seems a genuinely nice guy.

Yeah watch Wolf Hall first. The books as well are fantastic.

Gavin & Stacey was worth the wait, up there with the most laughs from any of the previous episodes.

So weird to have had it as an (on/off) constant for most of my adult life and all of a sudden it’s finished.
