London has gone downhill over the last number of years. I was shocked to see how jakey it has become.

You know austerity is bad when it effects London.

It was pretty jakey when I first visited back in the mid 80s.

A lot of Londoners voted to remain in the EU and in some ways have the same political outlook as a lot of Scots. But with 8 million people living there it's almost a City-state. Maybe the Great Wend* should declare itself independent.

 

 

 

*An old nickname for London. A Wend being a drain and meaning everything was sucked into London.

Curious thing about Tom Hanks is that I really like him as an actor. But then when I look at his lengthy filmography, there's very few that I would have any interest in seeing a second time. And quite a few I have no interest in seeing even once.

Green mile, saving private Ryan, sully, the terminal are all watchable and worth a second go.

I think he suffers from the same thing as Tom cruise, in too many films and it gets repetitive. He doesn’t have a huge range as well. Other than Forrest Gump it’s all pretty similar, but good.

You thought Sully was worth watching a second time? Not me.

I would add 'A League of their Own' (Mrs Shotgun was watching it just the other night and I got drawn in) and 'Apollo 13' (I own that one), 

I thought he was great in 'Philadelphia' and 'Bridge of Spies' but no interest in seeing them again.

Agree on your second point.
