I was given free tickets to go and watch this again at the weekend at the local Odeon Lux. I genuinely think this is as perfect a film of Elvis's life as you could hope for. Some cinemas are still screening it and, if you get the chance, I strongly recommend seeing it on the big screen while you can. It's so good.

Elvis- disappointing. Maybe his life was just pretty boring, but this didnt interest me on a musical or dramatic level.

Fair enough. I've noticed that there is a tendency for people to think the Elvis film is either great or rubbish.

I was eating breakfast at a Guest House in Great Yarmouth when I learned of Elvis's death.
His passing was a great loss to the burger industry and a warning to fat greedy bastards the world over to cut back on their grub.

I've been watching the price of my weekly shop, go even higher at Morrisons this morning. A damn sight more scary than a lot of horror films that I have ever seen.

Lurpak now hovering just under the critical £5 a tub mark , at £4.99 at our local Morrisons.
I recommend Aldi. Bought two sweet potatoes the other day which should have been 57p each. But get this, the checkout geezer put them through as baking potatoes at 19p each. Back of the net!!

Watched a couple of those ‘A Marriage’ episodes on BBC. Sean Bean and Nicola Wotsit’s in it, plus Terry from the Likely Lads. Written by the bloke who did Mum.
Got to be good, I thought. Wrong! Was like watching paint dry, with a few unnecessary sweary outbursts, and an infuriating tendency for all the characters not to answer direct questions. Pinteresque without the humour.

The Rehearsal- ambitious comedy-documentary series where a man helps people rehearse things like social situations, down to the smallest detail.

Engrossed by this, one of the most bonkers shows I've ever seen. Recommended for something that will twist your brain. The first episode is a gentle introduction into what madness lies ahead in the rest of the series.
