I WRITE this merely as an observation, but isn’t it odd the amount of fuss over the release of a film?
James Bond is a fictional secret agent, who in real life would never have survived all the injuries he incurs.
I fully accept the films are escapism, and I do enjoy them. It is just about the very last thing we can call British.
But in the real world, a film release is not going to save Britain.
We have a national debt in excess of 2 trillion pounds. Food shortages. Problems of petrol supply.
£20 a week taken away from the people who need that even more now, as the cost of living is increasing.
I will however buy the DVD when it is available, as I am not willing to mix with coronavirus carrying cinema-goers.
In the meantime, who will be the next Dr. Who?
Please not Boris Johnson.
I know this letter is all over the place. But so is just about everything and anything these days.
It makes no sense.
