    It's a great film with such a poignant ending.

    Indeed it was. It’s a while since I last saw it.

    The eagerly awaited sequel was disappointing.

    I haven't seen the sequel yet, I may not bother from what I've read about it. I don't get much time to watch films lately. Having said that I'm currently watching Under Siege ( ITV 4 ) which stars Steven Seagal who's probably one of the worst actors to ever grace Hollywood. Shocking film, but I guess it's one of those nights where you're so lazy you can't even be bothered to pick up the remote to turn the TV over.

    I like a bit of Steven Seagull. Yes, he’s bad, which makes some of his tripe quite amusing.

    Back to the late Mr Hauer; I particularly enjoyed his menacing turn in the original Hitcher movie. Quite why they felt it necessary to remake it with Sean Bean is beyond me.

    Malcolm Nash died on 30th July aged 74. He will forever be remembered in cricket folklore as the poor bowler who got hit for 6 sixes by Gary Sobers at Swansea.

    My daughter has just told me that one of her best mates dad has died today. He was fairly young ( 52 ) and a lovely bloke. He played for Wimbledon in the Premier League in the mid 90's. My wife was only with him the other week at my daughters collage arranging a sports holiday to Lanzarote and said he seemed and looked fine. RIP Steve Talboys <rose>

    Singer and impressionist Joe Longthorne has died at the age of 64 from cancer. He became famous on ITV's Search for a Star in 1981 before going on to perform on stages across the world.

    So this morning I was driving back to Reading from Newbury on the A4 and witnessed a crime scene, I thought to myself what the hell has gone on here.

    Then I put the radio on and heard the tragic and sickening news.

    PC Andrew Harper RIP<rose>

    My lad has moved in about 15 mins away from where it happened so he can be near the police college nearby. Terrible.

    I was only killing time in front of one of his flicks last night.

    (Hopper went 9 years ago. That’s gone quickly)
