Watched that last night, it was very good ... fair play to Kermode for 'running the gamut' from silent movies to Atomic Blonde.  

It was rather well done indeed. The way he brought it through to now but also not involving talking heads. It was a good little series he did, the first dealing with superheroes and second, historical movies.

Superheroes one was good too ... historical flicks aren't a 'particular' genre for me as such, so didn't bother with that one.

this week hidden in the depths of BBC4 repeats of interviews with Dame Diana

Tuesday 22nd, 2245 "Face to Face with Diana Rigg" from 1997

Wednesday 23rd, 2245, Mark Lawson talks to Diana Rigg

SPECTRE, ITV2 Christmas Day 8:00

Skyfall, ITV 9:00 New Year's Eve (Radio Times have tipped it as 'Film Of The Day' ... in these days of multi-channel choice, not bad going for an 8 year old flick).

Crikey, tend to forget it's that old a film now Skyfall. And five since Spectre. Damn.

Starting Tuesday at 8pm on ITV, Joanna Lumley has a new series (Home Sweet Home) in which at some point she goes to Aston Martin at Newport Pagnell and 'reminisces' about her time in OHMSS.

Might not be Tuesdays episode but it's only three parts and always time for Lumley.
