Health and safety Travellers on Britain’s early steam railways could purchase a nifty travel guide. This provided nervous passengers with helpful and reassuring advice Like where to sit in relation to the steam locomotive in order to minimise the risk of death 💀 “get as far from the engine as possible—should an explosion take place, you may happily get off with just the loss of an arm or a leg”* * Francis Coghlan - The Iron Road, 1838

that’s just plain nasty!

Ahem, I’m pretty sure the history books show it was “Anne Boleyn, loyal subject, big fan” that came to a sticky, headless end but, yeah, enjoy your head while you’ve still got it

Excellent blog! Hitchock’s Psycho (forget the others) is indeed a Masterclass The Sixth Sense? When I first started watching this I’d worked out the premise within the first five minutes. Because of that I got bored and so I gave up on the movie (I’ve never actually seen it through, and won’t now). The problem? The foreshadowing was so obvious right from the start - clumsily done. For me, anyway - and I don’t have any Sixth sense Had it been done with more skill (difficult, given the nature of the premise) then it could have been a fantastic movie and I’d have stayed with it. When I read “So, all of that being said, I'd like to suggest a movie where almost all of these methods come into play all within a ninety minute space, and that I thoroughly enjoyed MUCH more than I ever could have guessed that I would. And that movie is...” I already had another old movie in mind - Irwin Allen’s brilliant The Poseidon Adventure (the original and best), with Gene Hackman, released 50 years ago in 1972. I recently snagged an eBay bargain of the restored blu ray and it’s well worth watching both for entertainment (great cast, characters, story and all the sets and stunts are real - no CGI) and to see a good example of what you’ve been saying, as it delivers many of the points you make in this blog

I think you’ll find THIS was the deal…

OMG this place has gone all EVIL again!

yes it is a meeting of that noble Society …or is it a Squabble Anyway, the BOP is the chief (all hail the mighty BOP ) and the Penguin 🐧 is a pathetic, deluded creature that thinks she’s 🎶 Like a bird 🎶 https://youtu.be/roPQ_M3yJTA when the sad truth is that the nearest she’ll ever get to flying is this…

Henry V 1943/4 - William Walton Today is Shakespeare’s birthday and to celebrate here are two brief pieces from the music William Walton composed for this movie version of Shakespeare’s famous play. Amazingly, given the economic state of the nation, it was made in glorious Technicolor (it used the only colour camera and film stock Britain had) Opening scene at the Globe Theatre as the eager crowd gather for the performance Passacaglia: Death of Falstaff

under English law, copyright exists automatically from the moment of creation of an original work eg visual arts, music composition, writing etc - it does not need to be registered or asserted. The key issue, as you correctly point out, is having documentary evidence to prove who created it and when, should a dispute arise - I’ve simply emailed a pdf to myself which is quick and simple. Interestingly English laws of copyright for printed material started to develop under Henry VIII (initially to control the printers) which continued to be developed and extended (eg Hogarth’s Act) then in the 1800s the Berne Convention provided the framework for international protection, providing mutual recognition of signatories’ copyright laws and minimum legal standards. Sadly, digital media proved too problematic and the current position for international protection has become more complicated https://rkip.ca/2015/04/10/early-history-of-copyright-part-1-letters-patent/

fair point. I guess I was reacting to Comicality’s comment “ I've seen people take pictures of the MOON...and try to 'privatize' it and own it and cover it with watermarks, and it's like, "Come on, dude. Really? You own the MOON now?"“ Anyway we’re now way off topic, but Comicality is getting his wish - plenty of different points of view
