Have now finished Series 2 of The Split, which I found even better than the first, with actors now seeming absolutely inside their characters, making for excellent chemistry and a feeling of genuine emotion and life being played out. And the lovely touch of every episode being rounded off with a poignant and superbly judged Olivia Broadfield song was perfect. Not sure I'll be holding off for long before moving on to Series 3.

Well, the seven seasons of Mission: Impossible on blu-ray was undeniably a lavish impulse purchase, but I am unrepentant. I'm not saying it never happened to Martin Landau's Rollin Hand, but Nimoy's Paris seems frequently to get in harm's way. I may have said before, but the most noticeable difference in Season 4 is that, without Barbara Bain as Cinnamon, a given episode may or may not have guest actress to fill that void.

Best this year, by far. Nicola Walker and Stephen Mangan are currently starring in "The Unicorn" at the Garrick Theatre. I have a birthday coming up and thought why not until discovering ticket prices. Only tourists can afford West End theatre tickets these days unfortunately.

And Jane Merrow. Knew I knew that face and voice. No Peter Lupus in this 'un.
