Worth noting the stadium itself isn't affected but the ongoing operation to put out the fire and the recovery operation afterwards will go on for some time you would think. #SaintsFC

Was fortunate enough to watch Blaze at @BFI Southbank this afternoon. (My first visit) Blaze is a wonderfully unique film that doesn't hold back in dealing with sensitive issues. One of the best films I've seen so far this year. #LFF

@GaryBarlow It has to be released on dvd surely?! Not everyone has sky, if it's not released on dvd then it's making a joke of a big part of the fan base in my opinion, probably making more money than giving something back.

I've come to the conclusion that the most 90's film is Passenger 57. Wesley Snipes doing his thing. Dodgy action and one liners that a Pierce Brosnan 007 would be proud of coming from the heroes and villain's...

Wooden pallets continue to be moved away from the blaze whilst fire crews continue to treat the affected area with water pumps. Police, fire, and ambulances all in attendance. Fortunately nobody seems to be hurt but the buildings affected by the blaze look damaged beyond repair.

@right_movies Dalton, arguably the closest to Fleming's portrayal of the character. Probably owes something to Craig as they're similar and Dalton is more popular as Bond now than he was at the time after replacing Roger Moore.
