1) Ben and I totally obsessed with this record for a little while now; if there was a subtitle for EP2 it would probably be ‘The Exotic Moods of Profumo’ 2) For all Eno/Byrne’s My Life in the Bush of Ghosts was vaunted as weird and radical for all it’s ‘imagined’ world musics I now find it difficult not to read it as a (superb) edgy, new wave Les Baxter Record...

“The man who fell to Earth” (1976)

Typical of these tales was one which had [Peter O'Toole] arriving late for a ferry back to Ireland and being refused entry by the captain. Undeterred, O'Toole chartered a plane to Dublin, then hired a taxi at the airport and raced to the harbour. When the ferry arrived there was O'Toole waiting on the deck to challenge the officer to a fistfight

The wonderful truth about Burma

‘Picking Up The Threads’ - Radio Times, September 1984

The term "cosy catastrophe" was coined by the author Brian Aldiss and has a very specific meaning. "The essence of cosy catastrophe," he said, "is that the hero should have a pretty good time (a girl, free suites at the Savoy, automobiles for the taking) while everyone else is dying off." It is a limited and insulting definition, and Aldiss was using it to put John Wyndham firmly in his place.

Jane Rodgers, ‘Top 10 Cosy Catastrophes’, The Guardian, 5th July 2012
