Said Daemon, who's sorry too, but y'see we didn't have no choice
And our hands they are many and we'd be of one voice
We've come all the way from Wigan to get up and state
Our case for survival before it's too late

Turn stone to bread, said Daemon Duncetan
Turn stone to bread right away...

Bron watches a lot more than me, mostly British detective series. We both watch some cooking shows (but not those ridiculous competitive cooking shows)

We have had a unusual hybrid Dutch detective based loosely on a 70's British series; Van der Valk. It was made by Dutch public broadcast but maintained the odd bits. It is made in English with main characters played by English speaking actors and it is based in Amsterdam. There is no Dutch! It was weird watching it.

Been revisiting this Old BBC drama for kids from the 70s.

Some of those those stories and series's were borderline with often a fair bit of sexual innuendo. That's him from Blakes 7.

Last week I rewatched the movie "Arsenic and Old Lace" which is one of my most favorite movies. I had probably watched it at least six times before. This was the first time I noticed it's full of racism. :/

Sometimes I notice that sort of thing (plus homophobia etc.) in books from the past that I am re-reading. Basically I just put it in the context of the mores of the past, and appreciate the fact that the zeitgeist has moved on. It seems silly to be angry at past people emitted in the social web of the time...

I am not angry about them. But I notice how I didn't notice these things before. I changed.
