    Trying to watch The Hack on ITVX. The show is ok with David Tenant and that little bloke from Detectorists. Anyway, the review is more really of ITVX, a channel I’ve not used before and one whose operation, with what seems like 10-12 minutes of show time, with 3-5 mins of adverts, frustrating and all but unwatchable. Clearly designed to get the audience to cough up a fiver or so a month to lose the adverts, it will have the impact on this viewer of my not returning to the channel.

    Do you use a Firestick?

    Jailbreak it, then chuck this on...

    Access to loads of shows and films - a short ad before you start viewing, but not cluttered throughout the program

    I thought it was quite predictable and the Jude Law character implausible

    The best part for me was the Mk3 Jag XJ6

    I'm easily pleased - thought it was about a 7/10 - have seen far worse

    Got given a last minute ticket for Boomtown Rats 50th anniversary tour tonight, at the Barrowlands in Glasgow, my favourite venue in town. Thought I wasn't that familiar with their back catalogue, but recognised a lot more tunes than I thought. For a bunch of guys in their 70s they put on a good show.

    Started off with a movie chronicalling them over 50 years, from early days in Dublin to Live Aid and beyond. Then the band came on, Geldoff looks well and his voice was good. He had great rapport with the crowd too - Saturday night in Glasgow not a hard crowd though if you are on form!

    Only issue - I think people over 6ft should be made to stand at the back of a venue <laugh>
