Absolutely horrific night in Ukraine last night - 44 ballistic missiles and 659 drones fired from Russia. Deaths in Kyiv, Odessa and Dnipro. Not even bothering to hide the fact that it is residential areas under attack. Barely on the news outside Ukraine. And @JDVance says he is proud that USA has pulled its support so the aggressor can keep aggressing. Disgusting. But Europe has to do even more nowView quoted post on X

I remember Bomber being broadcast ‘in real time’ through the day, some years back. I was refurbishing a house full time so listened throughout.View quoted post on X
It was utterly gripping and horrifying. Made me feel as if I was within the story, listening from the ground, as the planes and the village that was their target got closer and closer.
I’ll never forget it.
Harry Palmer is one of the great characters of the genre and The Ipcress File and Funeral in Berlin were classic films.
A great writer.
