  • Thanks So Much

    Just watched Mr. tom on YouTube. I didn’t listen to your review for fear spoilers. Never heard of the film and I considered myself a “Mr. Know-it-All”. You proved me wrong! Loved it and wife cried. Thanks for turning us onto it. BTW 1st review gave you 5 stars not 2. Oops. Now I’m going to listen to your review. I’m certain it will be interesting

    PS…your review is the same length of the film!

The History behind Threads (1984) and The War Game (1966). 'Cold War Britain' (2025 Book) Part Two with Author Fraser McCallum
Q: What motivated Fraser to write Cold War Britain, and what does he hope readers take away?
Fraser discusses his passion for uncovering how Cold War history intersects with culture, politics, and daily life, and hopes the book serves as an accessible primer that sparks further exploration for readers, students, and even those who think they know the topic well.
Did Abnormal Refraction Doom The Titanic? 'Titanic: A Very Deceiving Night' (2012 Book) with Author, Historian and TV Presenter Tim Maltin
Q: How did abnormal refraction influence the perceived distance and size of ships on that night?
It caused horizon elevation and refraction effects that could make distant ships appear smaller and closer to the observer than they actually were, misleading lookouts and commanders about the true situation.
