Bruno Ganz in Downfall. I watched this film in the cinema and the whole audience held its breath during 2 of the key scenes - absolutely extraordinary. Honourable mentions to Christolph Waltz as Hans Landa, Bernard Hill as Yosser Hughes and Val Kilmer in Tombstone.

Not quite Spinal Tap but a Dino Park in Slovenia

Shalimar Gardens - that's a blast from the past for me, along with Burger Dome and the Canadian Charcoal Pit.

Fancy holding a political conference in Manchester with the keynote action of U-turning on infrastructure investment to..... Manchester. Then again, this was the party in government in 1991 when they held their conference in some northern town and then axed the regular intercity service to...

Anchor & Hope pub is a walk from the ground on the river - Charlton and away fans drink there on a matchday - not a bad pint and serves food

Not so. Applying the 6.7% swing to labour across all seats would result in a hung parliament so no massive majority there.that would be the best case scenario for the tories as you can see that the swing away from them in the other two by-elections were much greater and not always towards...

Lonnie Donegan?

I immediately thought Van Persie but Richard Walker's header is right up there

I agree Rusty regarding a sports pundit voicing an opinion in his own time. It is very different from a newsreader or a political editor voicing an opinion instead of reporting facts. One could argue that ostracising someone expressing their opinion is the sort of thing that happened in Nazi...

Sad news, I had the pleasure of spending a few hours with him a few years ago when he came to talk to students. He was a lovely bloke and very generous with his time. I had to pick him up and drive him so we had a great chat about Barnet and Blackpool on the way.

Are you moving to Uxbridge?

Yes - I remember them. Also Kia-ora in cinemas. I think the cinema in Dorchester still sells them along with Westler's hot dogs, and butterkist (not obselete)

Kepler-452b. I would go but the nearest Ryanair drop-off is too far for the taxi fare.

The real vote winner will be the impact of increased energy bills over the next few months. Mine have increased by 172% this month (so much for 10% inflation) and these tax cuts I will get in return won't cover that. The Tories have completely messed up by not adopting a policy to reduce energy...

The Treasure of the Sierra Madre - A John Huston film with Humphrey Bogart

Played cricket for a men's team when I was 10 and ran the last batsman out to win the match. One of our bowlers took 9-13 in that match so I stopped a potential 10 for. At university I strode out and scored 10 off my first 2 balls to win the match. Unfortunately I hadn't realised that my...

God bless Her Majesty for her long reign and service to the country she loved. God save the King.

PM until Autumn? He just doesn't get it. Nobody wants to be in his cabinet right now and an interim cabinet for the next 3 months or so will have to cope with the current issues he isn't dealing with at the moment plus whatever new crises crop up. He needs to go completely and let an interim...

Seeing Sparks on TOTP playing This town ain't big enough for the both of us - Hitler's on the telly! Roxette by Dr Feelgood was the first time I heard something on the radio which rocked my world.

R.I.P. Billy - outstanding for N.I.
