Good grief - I'm losing my grip - another complimentary post about the Beeb!
Tonight, Mark Kermode and Bill Forsyth are visiting the location of possibly the best film in the world - Local Hero.
Our VHS tape wore out we watched it so often, and now we have a DVD from Canada, thanks to the wonders of ebay.
So I shall be glued to the set come 22:00 tonight.
PS I'm glad it's not that annoyingly matey Geordie lass presenting though...

I know I am usually banging on about how rubbish terrestrial TV is, but I rather enjoyed the last episode of Alan Yentob's Imagine called "Let there be light". As a photographer, I was very interested in other ways artists use light to express themseves. Featured artists include:
I can recommend it - Yentob is an infectiously enthusiastic chap, and some of the art is mesmerising - especially Turrell's I thought. On the BBC iplayer now:

A jewel adrift in a sea of dross.
