Really... Hmmm, may have to cancel said order...


I just found out that Stringer (Idris Elba) was in THIS series that I rather enjoyed in the late 90s (97/98 maybe)... It rode the wave of Jack Davenport's fame from This Life, but don't think it really took off. Shame.


Please ignore the music in the background of the vid on youtube!

Sitting opposite West in a scruffy office above a Soho pub, listening to him chat affably about his love of Chekhov and Tolstoy, it's difficult to comprehend that this is the guy you're used to seeing mooch into the DA's office in downtown Baltimore, drawling his catchphrase "What the fuck did I do?"


Dominic West (McNulty) interview

so, anyone watch it last night on FX?


I recorded it - partly to skip ads, but I'll also try and build up a backlog of episodes before I start. So, no spoilers please


I saw a picture in a review this morning of one of the news guys and saw it was Clark Johnson - one of the main characters in the direct predecessor to the Wire - Homicide Life in the Street. Think he directed a few of the early Wire episodes as well


And for a show on a tiny satellite channel, boy did it generate some columns in the papers at the weekend!

    • The Commons Public Accounts Committee questioned both the CEO and MD of Capita yesterday, at their last meeting before the recess:  https://committees.parliament.uk/event/25889/formal-meeting-oral-evidence-session/.  In October they'd already expressed concern that Capita might not  be able to efficiently retake over responsibility for the administration within the timescale. Given the joint statement recently issued by Capita and the Cabinet Office I'm not sure that contacting an MP is going to add much, other than venting what I think most of us can probably appreciate of what those affected are likely  to be thinking and feeling; unless perhaps, and I hope it's not needed, to report on deficiencies in the immediate rescue actions.
    • She's responded, but I'm sure I read something in the Guardian consumer advice column. Might be some pointers if you're stuck
    • Two for Ratcliffe, the obvious one:   And one simply because it has the word  "You are nothing but blind fascists" in it.  Oh and a good song too.   Haven't listened to this for years.  Bloody good!
    • It's time to ditch your team, otherwise you could be seen to supporting your owners dog whistle comments (aka racist). Fortunately you can support a local team, I understand that Palace have pretty right on fans, and you have Dulwich Hamlet and Peckham Town too. If you genuinely are from the North West then Everton fans are well rated for their politics (ignore the paving over paradise/loss of UNESCO world heritage status), and of course FC United of Manchester. Salford Town not a bad bet either. For those who are glory hunters dare I say over the river in the North London library aka Emirates (shame they don't rhyme) you have both the likelihood of a title this season and a very multicultural fan base. If you want to be really cool the Welsh speaking team Club Cymric, Forest Green Rovers, or AS Livorno in Italy, an anti-fascist team
