A trip to Parkhead for an aerial look at possibly the finest cross in the city. Parkhead grew from a weaving hamlet into a major industrial centre after the discovery of coal in 1837.

A discovery that's out of this world! 🌖
Staff at Moons Burger & Co. uncovered these old station tiles during the renovation of their Argyle Street unit. They chose to incorporate them into their design, and very kindly let us take some photos before their grand opening today!
According to Henry Fonda, Sergio Leone's "Once Upon a Time in the West" (1968) ran four years at the same theater in Paris. The identical thing happened in Berlin. It was one of the all-time grossing pictures in Europe, South America, and Japan. But it was a big failure in the USA.
Audiences at home simply would not accept Henry Fonda shooting a helpless child in cold blood. The film may be seen on late-night television in the United States, but just as Fonda draws his gun, stations all over the country cut to commercials.

Palestinian Christians are marking Christmas amid displacement and near-daily Israeli ceasefire violations.
🔴On 7 October 2023, Israel began spreading atrocity propaganda — rapes, burned babies, family massacres. But a big share of deaths that day were by Israeli fire. From the start, EI exposed these lies while mainstream media spread them. Here's some of our key investigations🧵
Bob Hoskins was one of the greatest. In the final scene of The Long Good Friday (1980), he silently replays the film's events in his head, ticking off signs of his ultimate downfall one by one. It's an acting masterclass. We'll never see another like Bob.
The Griffin on Bath St, 1975. Built in 1903 by William Reid for publican Duncan Tweedley. It was originally called The King's Arms, after the King's Theatre across the street, and was renamed The Griffin after publican William Griffin who ran the pub in the 60s & 70s.

‘I Can’t Go Back to Savoury’ as you’ve never heard it before! DJ Shaun Keaveny displays a superb command of vibrato (despite his unkempt appearance, and keeping his eyes closed which seems a bit rude.) Instead, Shaun should be eyeballing the camera lens and gesticulating wildly!
