Even though I've seen him in loads of things, for some reason the film I always remember David Warner for is Time After Time (1979), in which H. G. Wells (Malcolm McDowell) builds an actual time machine, and Warner plays his friend who's secretly Jack the Ripper. He steals the time machine and travels to present-day (i.e. 1979) San Francisco to continue his campaign of murder, with Wells in pursuit. I might watch that again soon, actually

Here's a good article/interviews thing, published today, about it: Jack the Ripper, H.G. Wells and, Nearly, Mick Jagger: 'Time After Time' Stars on a Curious Film, 40 Years Later | Hollywood Reporter

The branch in the city was giving them away a little while back, and very nice they were too, unlike any other scotch I have ever eaten

can't say i've ever eaten scotch.

drank a fair bit though

Heating was on when I got home, and the flat was awfully stuffy. Living room window opened to let all that surplus heat I've paid for out.

Watching the first of the short BBC series, Rise of the Nazis.

Reminds me of a very interesting book I spotted at a homestay when in Cuba, that I subsequently bought when I got home

Dinner was a simple chicken salad.

GPWM, if chickens were clever they wouldn't put up with factory farming and rise up against their evil overlords

Tea this evening was M&S battered haddock.

It was nice enough.

Followed in turn by 1.05 pints of Good Glengettie Tea.

The first of this evening's entertainment is the not very inneresting "Secret Scotland" with Susan Calman.

It's in The Borders, starting with Gretna Green, then some fly fishing with J. R. Hartley, now hand weaving tartan. Apparently McMillan tartan is hers.

Now 7 a side rugby in Melrose.

Sir Walter Scott's house & now it's sheepdog trialing.

Melrose Abbey.

And having shown eps 1 to 4, that's the end of it, ep 5, which looks rather more inneresting, is nowhere to be seen.

Ribeye steak for tea, with the usual accompaniments; very tasty

Mostly clear out now; some top twinkling going on up in the heavens when I popped out the back, away from the streetlights, just before

The evening's entertainment continued with "Clara's Heart (1988)" with that Whoopi Goldberg, happily the last NTSC R1 dvd in that collection.

While the region free player was on, I decided to watch an ep of "Jeremiah".

Pity I didn't search for this earlier:

And continues with "The Bag" ep of Jeremiah, wherein a chap with A Doctor's Bag poses as A Doctor.

Which would have saved me watching stuff out of order, namely "Thieves Honor" being ep 11.
