Birdsong

Posted on January 30, 2012 by

*post contains spoilers* BBC’s Birdsong nearly killed me last night. Overwhelming. Yet how could I not watch it? Many tired faces today, many conversations, and many hugs. It’s hard to see the reality of this terrible war, remembering that WW2 … Continue reading →

Finished watching BBC’s The Choir (1995) last night. Wonderful really. Not particularly easy to watch, but incredibly true. Some lovely people, a lovely headteacher and priest and a few other great priests and bishops, and then unfortunately a big bunch … Continue reading →
