Central heating off? Maybe. All mild and shorts weather here. Though having said that, I'm not sure Robert Downey Junior would appreciate my casualness. If the highest paid man in Hollywood is in the building then the least I can do is to wear my best long trousers. He sports a fine Metallica t-shirt in his movie The Judge in which stars as well as produces. He plays a hot-shot lawyer who has to return home to his small town where his father-played by Robert Duvall- is the titular judge.
To say this is a messed-up family is an understatement. After RDJ (as we call him) it's Toby Jones-yes Captain Mainwaring himself-and this for a new movie called Serena. I was 30 seconds into the title sequence when I realised I had read the book. Back in 2008 on 5Live I spoke to Ron Rush a professor of Appalachian studies about his 1920s tale of a lumber, the Smoky Mountains and a powerful woman (called Serena you'll be surprised to hear) And he was terrific. Anyway Toby is always terrific so looking forward to his company...
Then it's high time we did some tunes. Your ARF opener kicks of with 1983 please.
Hello TVAM! Hello Compact Discs! Hello Discworld! What do you fancy?
2 and 5 then...
