Watch, listen, read
This week I recommend:
- In film, This is England. (Watched it tonight, and it’s brilliant, just brilliant. The dialogue’s great, the soundtrack is perfect, and most of the acting is great too.)
- In music, Portland Rise. (Yes, I have a bit of a vested interest in these guys, but would recommend them even if I didn’t know them.)
- In books, Under the Net. (Iris Murdoch’s first novel, and unfortunately the only one of hers I’ve read, but will try and rectify that this summer after my exams.)
That’s my watch, listen and read for this week. I might even make it a semi-regular feature, depending how revision goes.
- (And as a bonus, in podcasts, the Ubuntu-uk podcast episode 2, or uupc as it is become known. It even got a mention on lugradio this week!)
This is England — A fantastic film, I second your recommendation :)

I have the This is England movie on my Netflix queue; I’ll move it up, so I can check this film out.
I’ll also check out that podcast. It will be interesting to learn there opinion of Hardy Heron.
