Loved the #WesAnderson archives exhibition @designmuseum.bsky.social ! Such a rich, immersive opportunity to jump back into the universes of his films.

I seem to recall hearing Superdrug radio on a shopping trip too. Maybe the question should be: who *doesn’t* have their own in-store radio station?! Who even are you? Etc.

When did companies start having their own radio stations? I’m currently listening to Kwikfit Radio while getting a tyre replaced.

D’oh! I sort of wish I hadn’t mentioned it but that wouldn’t be very honest. That said, we like to think that we make our covers our own.
Your powers of deduction are spot on Monsieur Garratt! Tres bien!

@kermodeandmayo.bsky.social Season’s greetings! LTL here. When describing the erotic scenes in the latest Avatar film as β€˜French’, I can’t help thinking that you meant that it’s a blue movie?
