If you can keep your head while those around you are losing theirs, you may have misjudged the situation.

What would Ena Sharples do?
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts
Re: RB, Daisy, my taste monitors...
Must be a pretty low bar for "all star"...an all-star cast including Timothy Spall, Jim Broadbent, Jane Horrocks, Bob Hoskins and David Thewlis.
Re: RB, Daisy, my taste monitors...
You're right Jim... They should've used proper American actors! 
Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?
Re: RB, Daisy, my taste monitors...
Gob, yes you should watch it.

Ok, it's available for pennies on Amazon UK, will get a copy.
(Mind you, the mount of pennies I send to Amazon UK, I'd be better off buying a subscription to a UK based TV service.)
Oh and Jim, that's parochialism worthy of rubato.
