Today, the video streaming service created by the BBC and ITV released a nice new selection of classic 60s and 70s entertainment - mostly focused on science fiction.
If you're a fan of these shows, you'll be thrilled at this news with the added benefit that many of them are in HD too.

Testing out Maison Francis Kurkdjian Gentle Fluidity Silver today. It's a quite unique (to me) scent that is fine for the summer. It may be not quite so good in really high humidity but overall, I am quite impressed.

Robert Pattison revealed in an interview with The Irish Times that he was forbidden from revealing his audition for the part to anyone - including his Tenet director Christopher Nolan. Except, considering Nolan is perhaps the master of secrets, Pattinson’s “lie” didn’t pass.
“I had to be really secretive about Batman stuff,” the actor said. “So I had to lie to Chris about having to go for a screen test.”
“I said I had a family emergency,” Pattinson explained. “And as soon as I said ‘it’s a family emergency’ he said: ‘You’re doing the Batman audition, aren’t you?'”

Bit late to the game as this first appeared back in 2007. I found it very underwhelming. A floral, powdery scent that has decent sillage and longevity but isn't for me. It's not that it's too feminine but more that it just doesn't warrant the kind of money asked.
It strangely reminds me of the powdery quality in Versace Pour L'Homme. For an expensive niche scent, it's a major disappointment. I'm glad I only bought a sample. Never blind buy a fragrance that costs £270 - no matter how much it gets hyped on YouTube.
