This week is a bit of a funny one; I need to decide what to do with a couple of things. Consequently the comedy block will be a bit shorter than normal, which frees up some time for a pair of fairly long films which share a common theme. In the first film, Gran Torino (2008), Clint Eastwood plays a decrepit Korean War veteran living in a Detroit suburb overrun with crime and gang-related violence. Finishing the evening, Michael Caine plays the titular Harry Brown (2009), a former Royal Marine who lives on a deprived London council estate. In each film our elderly heroes cast aside their zimmer frames in order to take matters into their own arthritis-riddled hands.

I’m trying something out ahead of Damo’s stream (see below for his schedule). It’s a rough interpretation of a BBC weekday early evening line-up from times gone by. We’ll be starting off with some classic CBBC, then moving on to the very first episodes of Neighbours and The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. At 7.30 we’ll continue our foray into Star Trek: The Next Generation, then finishing with an old Crimewatch before handing over to Damo’s stream at 9pm.
