“Only You” - Alison Moyet and Vince Clarke (Yazoo) Covered many times over the 40+ years since it was first released in 1982, and featuring in many movies and TV shows. Most recently it was played at the very end of Love, Victor in 2022 as Victor and Benji finally get back together, despite the song being so melancholy (it’s about regret and sense of loss after the breakup of a relationship - but maybe it was referencing all of that during the series?) This is a remixed version released by Alison Moyet in 1999, when it charted at #2

the monologue in Goldfinger works because it’s delivered so well (dubbed - Gert Fröbe’s English was poor) and is combined with stunning screen visuals (for 60 years ago) all leading up to that brilliant, laconic comedy punchline: Bond: “Do you expect me to talk?” Goldfinger: “No Mr Bond, I expect you to die!” and it could all have ended so differently…

A lot of people will become ‘experts’ in bridge design as more horrific details of this terrible tragedy emerge Those interested in this (and understanding the risks to themselves and family using old bridges - still statistically very low), might wish to read the initial thoughts of some actual experts - structural engineers: https://www.sciencemediacentre.org/expert-reaction-to-baltimore-bridge-collapse/#:~:text=Bridges are not designed to,container ship is significantly larger.

I messed up editing my post, mistakenly creating this new post instead which I can’t delete So here’s a bonus post - a fascinating and weirdly beautiful version of Prelude #1in C major from Book 1 of JS Bach’s Well Tempered Clavier Bach is famous not just for his music, but also his compositional technique, reversing + inverting phrases throughout many of his works. This is an entire piece (the prelude) that’s been ‘inverted’ by American composer, Andrey Stolyarov. Although turning the music ‘upside down’ keeps the same rhythm, it changes the key from C major into a diminished minor and creates something very surprising, completely different in sound, mysterious and wonderful. You’ll want to play it again!

TV companies sometimes commission surprisingly good quality original compositions for their shows. This is Jim Parker’s Agnus Dei, a short but beautiful piece written for the second episode of ITV’s popular police detective series Midsomer Murders, Death Of A Hollow Man, first shown in 1998 Edit: silly zombie - Agnus not Angus!
