Still trying to watch Apocalypse

Tue Sep 29

Apocalypse is the zombie apocalypse reality show on Channel 4, think I mentioned it the other day. Two teams of people dropped into opposite sides of an abandoned town, with no food. First show they both found some food, then one team robbed the other. Next thing they're walking round with baseball bats. I can only watch a few minutes at a time because it makes me cringe. What are they going to do with these baseball bats? There is a TV crew with them, they're not going to have a gang battle. It's ridiculous.

We're also revisiting Marvel's Wandavision which I have seen before, and then we might move onto Agatha All Along. Apparently we didn't finish this first time round.

And in more TV, a follow up to Magpie Murders on BBC, an Anthony Horowitz crime drama with the weird meta element where all the real people are also characters in a book. We like it. And in yet more, we are also watching Strictly this series, we're making an effort to watch the whole lot. I'm watching Strictly: It Takes Two as I write this.

Have done no exercise recently, have barely been outside.

Not going to London this week, have got away with it. We have an internatl conference thing going on so there's lots of watching talks on the laptop, not much sense going to the office to do that. And anyway I need to be here to get in the queue for Glastonbury tickets.

I was at not one but two gigs exactly a quarte rof a century ago today. First Neds Atomic Dustbin, a revival type thing at London Astoria, and then after that ended to a clubnight at the Barfly in Camden, where The Darkness were playing. That's how I rolled back then.

Partly cloudy and a moderate breeze, 18 - 21℃.
