Thanks Peter, I'll put that on the watch list.

I spent a couple of hours with Tony walking round Cleethorpes one Saturday morning looking for a shop that sold film for his camera. Every shop we entered he introduced himself, told the staff what he wanted the film for and where he was performing that night. He was a true gentleman. Very sad news for a soul legend. Rip.

I watched The Greatest Night In Pop at the weekend on Netflix. It's a feature length documentary on the making of the "We are the world" single in 1985, from the writing of the song with Lionel Ritchie and Michael Jackson. Selling the idea to Quincy Jones as producer and then sorting out all the stars to sing on it and what part would suit each one of them. I thoroughly enjoyed Bob Dylans contribution, Stevie Wonder was great with him. Well Recommended. 5*****

Copernicus just called, apparently the Northern Soul scene isn't the centre of the Universe?

I don't get what skateboarding and attending the Bristol School of performing arts on Saturday for four years has got to do with anything, So what, my mate plays Rugby on Saturday, sometimes for 2 teams but it doesn't stop him doing soul stuff at night. Apparently she was in 3 stage productions as well, so there's no chance of her appearing in Once upon a time in Wigan 2, The Stafford Story.

Peter, you've just described my wife there, apart from the French bit.😂

I'll look out for La Famille Belier. I thoroughly enjoyed 36 as well. Cinema Paradiso was my introduction into it. Flattop Tony on soul source lent me a load of the more obscure titles like The Ordeal, Night of the Sunflowers, Timecrimes and the classic Vengeance trilogy.

One of my favourite Daniel Auteuil films and one of his earliest ones is the classic Jean De Florette & the follow up to it Manon Des Sources. Gerard Depardieu stars in it as well. Like you say a brilliant actor. I collect World Cinema and Daniel Auteuil features in quite a few of them.

Hi Peter My favourite French cop series is Braquo, there's 4 seasons altogether, if you don't mind your TV cops bending the rules when it suits in order to catch the bad guys, then this lot will be right up your street, violent, seedy drama, what's not to like. I watched them on DVD, I'm not 100% sure but they could be on Amazon Prime.

Richard Searling always used the Ramsey Lewis version on his radio shows as a backing track. It's such a great song whoever records it.

It's available on line, Simon sent me a link but I haven't tried it yet. I might leave it till it comes to the BBC

I thought it was already on but it's coming soon apparently. Not to worry where's the weekender Peter. 😃

Excellent, that's my weekend sorted.
