Thomas Cromwell and Mary Boleyn (Mark Rylance and Charity Wakefield) 

This is about the best TV series ever produced by the BBC. The story, the historical environments, the wardrobe and, above all - the superb acting by the British actors. 

Delightful every second....

No Kenyans in this year's race and what was the reason (??). But great atmosphere anyway.

Much of the Eurovision Song Contest music is simply dreadful, but, sometimes, some good songs and performances emerge from the shadows. Blanche's 2017 performance representing Belgium is one of the rarities.

Targeted for demolition ?? 😡 Europa Nostra and EIB Institute announce Europe’s 7 Most Endangered Heritage Sites for 2025....here.

The Advisory Panel of the 7 Most Endangered Programme emphasised: “The Valhalla Swimming Hall stands for both a significant expression of the 1950s’ pioneering architecture and artistic decoration, and a breakthrough for a new public health responsibility, a symbol of changing attitudes toward public swimming. It is also an example for the rest of Europe in its exquisite design, accessibility and openness. For architectural, cultural, social, economic, and environmental reasons, the Valhalla Swimming Hall should be renovated for the benefit of both present and future generations.”

Lamino....

1956, by Yngve Ekström. Not only a good design, but extremely comfortable as well.
