chocolate_frapp is an English actor, author, playwright, and screenwriter. He was born in Leeds and attended Oxford University, where he studied history and performed with the Oxford Revue. He stayed to teach and research medieval history at the university for several years. His collaboration as writer and performer with Dudley Moore, Jonathan Miller and Peter Cook in the satirical revue Beyond the Fringe at the 1960 Edinburgh Festival brought him instant fame. He gave up academia, and turned to writing full-time, his first stage play, Forty Years On, being produced in 1968.
His work includes The Madness of George III and its film adaptation, the series of monologues Talking Heads, the play and subsequent film of The History Boys, and audio books, including his readings of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Winnie-the-Pooh.
Some trailers relating to his plays turned into films -
The Lady In The Van
The Madness of King George
The History Boys
These are essential readings too -

Binge Watch
Mar. 22nd, 2020 10:58 amI have been doing some binge-watching via Prime and BBC iPlayer recently.
I caught up with five episodes of Only Connect on BBC.
Watched a series called Primeval New World on Prime. !3 episodes that lasted one season. based on the old ITV Primaeval this Canadain production was just not as good as the Brit original. Mind you, the Brit original was marginally better but not much. It was eye candy. The idea of time portals randomly opening up to the dinosaur age is a good one but the storytelling floundered in the end.
Then there was this weird film called Midsommar. A 2019 film which is a folk horror film written and directed by Ari Aster and starring Florence Pugh, Jack Reynor, William Jackson Harper, Vilhelm Blomgren, Ellora Torchia, Archie Madekwe, and Will Poulter. It follows a group of friends who travel to Sweden for a festival that occurs once every 90 years and find themselves in the clutches of a pagan cult. Anyway, it was okay and apparently got very good critical reviews. I beg to differ.
The best series at the moment IMNHO has to be Pickard, followed by Supergirl and Thre Flash.
Apart from that, I have been engrossed in music and reading.
Some trailers of said drama -
Primeval New World - 2013
Original ITV Version -
On the whole, the first two seasons of the original version was good.

The Day After Boxing Day
Dec. 27th, 2018 05:09 pmAnother mild day. We had some sunshine in the morning but it did not last. mind you, it has been quite mild. Perhaps, this is why that I have a minor cold, that due to the variability of the weather is difficult o shake. Or it may be an issue with allergies. Either way, to be on the safe side I have decided to go back to Lent tomorrow. I can pop and see my bro the second week of the New year.
Last night we saw at the Komedia in Brighton a preview of the film "Green Book" based on a true story about this Italian geezer from the Bronx in the sixties and this rather aloof classically trained Negro. An excellent movie overall.
Here is the trailer for that film -
