We talked about some old times...

So the show was fine I thought and the day was negotiated successfully. Nodded off briefly in Trainspotting 2 but apart from that…mind you that was quite an achievement. T2 is not the quietist of films andI’m happy to predict that no one else IN THE ENTIRE WORLD will repeat my feat. So sleep has been taken. Onwards…

Today we have the rather terrific Timothy Spall on the show. He stars in Denial, just nominated for outstanding British film at the BAFTAs. This is the story of how An American professor finds herself the defendant in a high-profile British libel trial that would impact the way the history of the Holocaust is told. Denial is a taut courtroom drama based on one of the most significant international legal cases in recent memory. Rachel Weisz play the professor and Tim Spall plays writer and ‘historian’ David Irving. Tim has been on our screens for years now and filling them with so many memorable characters, Wormtail in Harry Potter, Churchill in The King’s Speech and JMW Turner in Mr Turner to name but three of them.
