Anyone been watching the Miners Strike 1984? Second episode last night. Really good insight into a snapshot of a tumultuous time in the UK.    It's very balanced, the first episode interview

Saw this post on FB about Kenneth Griffith, Welsh actor and documentary maker.    Lots of his docs are on YouTube, and many were censored at the time including the one about Michael Collins.

Watched the flat Earther one on netflix the other day. They're all mad. Worryingly the loons in it did mention half a dozen conspiracy theories which I have looked interesting and think there might be something in. Not sure what it says about me 

 

One of them!

Pervert Park on BBC 4 last night so assume will be on iplayer

 

Difficult to watch for me a cycle of sympathy (for abuse they suffered) revulsion (at the crimes they did time for) confusion (what do we do with them).

 

Only positive was that the reoffending rate for those resident in trailer park was 1% however considering the crimes they commit it is still 1% too much. However I would guess that this level of reoffending is a lot less than normal ex prison (for same crimes) population.

Some great stuff here.

 

The National Library of Scotland has loads of interesting videos online as well.

You can look for less specific videos, I only know they exist because I specifically was looking for that video a few years ago and still have the bookmark.

Just watched Bunch of Kunst: A Film About Sleaford Mods on Sky Arts (great fucking channel) catch up and loved it. I was aware of them before, obviously, but never really listened or dug deep. However, the three of them (the manager is basically in the band too) are fascinating and I quite like their stuff. One of those bands where, even if I’m not mad for their music, I’m pleased they exist. Their fiercely independent spirit is fucking great.
