BBC2. Damn you, Royal Mail, our Radio Times hasn't been delivered, yet again.
Evidence that Britain isn't broken can be seen on BBC Four tonight by Young Musician of the Year.
Awesomely talented young people, some from immigrant backgrounds, giving music some right welly.

Goodnight from Virginia Croft, haunted by seeing herself in films on BBC2’s Horror Double Bill that she can’t remember having screamed in. Goodnight from Molly Straw, deciding that ‘Blinky’ is too friendly a name for the living shadow that squats in her room. Goodnight from Hookland.

Marvellously, the BBC2 coverage of Serie A has James Richardson, the original Football Italia theme AND a take on the original Football Italia Channel 4 ident. Lovely stuff.

Milan derby on BBC2 is it? Nice one.

Tonight’s BBC2 offering is 1996.
Far too modern. Why, it’s only *checks notes* 30 years ago.
I miss my twenty something hair.

RIP Patrick Stewart. In 1981 he starred in BBC2 psychiatric unit drama Maybury, which they previewed by getting him to introduce and analyse clips from the series. www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4_l...
