But as long as much of that 14 hours would have involved Lucy Boynton, I’d have been happy enough with that.

Paterson Joseph’s facial expressions while watching the play are wonderful.

Stop getting Monopoly wrong!

I’m kind of with you. Surely the making of Nebraska is just Bruce on his own in a room with a 4-track?

Not number one for me, but definitely higher than 8.

But mine, nonetheless. Of those early story songs, give me Lost in the Flood every time.

It’s good, but the second is better.

I’d also have Seeds near the top - I could never understand how that didn’t make it onto a studio album.

I love Spare Parts and would have that in my top 20.

In an amusing reversal of that story, the actor John Hurt spent many years boasting of his family’s Irish roots. He then went on the TV show Who Do You Think You Are? and it turned out he had no Irish ancestry at all.

It’s a bit silly, but good fun.

I’d love to see Michael Moorcock’s History of the Runestaff books on the big screen.

It may be unfilmable but it begat an awesome stadium house act.

That would be an excellent idea!

Reading that list of names as a Brit, I got to Jim Gaffigan and had to think “is that who I’m thinking of or is that Bill Burr?” and then continued through the list and realised it didn’t matter.
