Pah! Nothing compared to Wayne Shelford Wikipedia - "Shelford made his Test debut for the All Blacks later that year against France in a 19–7 victory in Toulouse, and then was a notable victim of the infamous "Battle of Nantes" in the second Test. Roughly 20 minutes into the match, he was caught at the bottom of a rather aggressive ruck, and an errant French boot found its way into Shelford's groin, somehow ripping his scrotum and leaving one testicle hanging free. He also lost four teeth in the process. Incredibly, after discovering the injury to his scrotum, he calmly asked the physio to stitch up the tear and returned to the field before a blow to his head left him concussed"
Should be just taken out and shot. I'd do it if it were one of my children he killed. In cases like this there should be no going back - put him down and then he wouldn't be held in "inhuman" conditions ...........
Just finished watching the 1st episode of The Night Manager. The last time I tried I was so tired I fell asleep after 10 minutes. This time I was kept well and truly awake. Chilcosaint was right. Great stuff and I've got 4 of them to get through. Can't think of a single reason why I shouldn't watch the 2nd episode right now.
Have been to see Rams at Harbour Lights this evening. Excellent, dark, off the wall and made you think.. Back home in time for Happy Valley.. Gripped. Needed emotional stamina and now I need a drink!
Sarah Lancashire deserves a Best Actress BAFTA just for the very last scene in tonight's episode, never mind every episode of both series where she has been nothing short of astonishing. I'll try not to give any spoilers but the last scene was a long shot of her face where you could read exactly what she was thinking as though it was written there. Incredible acting. As a staunch defender of the BBC it's great that two of the best series in years culminate this week: Happy Valley tonight and The Night Manager on Sunday.
