2026 Formula One Season
I think this will be Hulk's last season unfortunately. Quite a disappointing race for him given his heroics at Silverstone last year.

Weekly UK Box Office
That’s something I’ve never thought of before - do the Box Office figures include VAT or exclude it? Did a quick check but can’t see a conclusive answer.

Obsession • 15th May 2026
Haven’t seen Obsession yet (will likely check it out once it comes to streaming), but from what I can understand from the plot, the same concept was done before on Irish TV before, in 1998, in under 10 minutes, with puppets -

Taylor Swift stays at number one in the singles chart. Olivia Rodrigo completes a hat-trick of number one albums.
I bought “Bournville” by Jonathan Coe in a whim a few years ago and enjoyed it, but haven’t read anything else by him. May need to make a trip to the library to investigate further.

By-elections 2024- (Part 2)
Well, in a rare occurrence, I got the winners of all 3 by-elections right. After all of that, the net effect is + 1 Tories, - 1 SNP. There will now be a by-election for the Mayor of Greater Manchester, which I’ve seen suggested will be the largest ever by-election in population terms in UK voting history. If Andy calls a General Election on his coronation with a Lib Dem pact, then he’ll continue Labour’s majority, cut off Reform when they’re at a wane, and wipe out the Tories for good, with Reform withering on the vine in opposition to Burnham. If he leaves it to 2029, then it’ll be a straight Labour/Tory contest - Kemi Badenoch has settled into the role as leader of the opposition, and this surprise by-election victory gives them the momentum on the right rather than Farage.

Weekly UK Box Office
Very surprised that “Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” was Spielberg’s highest opening for a film in the UK, and that “Lost World” in the 90s was higher than some of his high-profile 2010s films with inflation adjustment. I’m guessing Jurassic Park is probably his biggest adjusted for inflation?

Letterboxd
Great timing! Decided to start a Letterboxd account for the first time on Saturday. I’m currently trying to remember every single film I’ve ever watched, and have made somewhat of a start on it. It’ll probably take me a good year to remember them all. Username is beanochris (anyone with a very long memory will remember that name)
