Danny Boyle's 'Trainspotting' was released 30 years ago today. The opening "Choose Life" monologue, with Renton sprinting through the streets of Edinburgh while introducing the rest of the characters, is one of the most iconic intros in 90s cinema.
On this day 30 years ago: Trainspotting was released in UK cinemas. Did you know... the "filth" covering the set in 'the worst toilet in Scotland' scene was actually various types of chocolate, which reportedly smelled delicious.
42 years ago today, my parents took me to a game which changed my life forever. With 13 minutes left & trailing on away goals to the mighty Bayern Munich, Aberdeen produced two moments of unparalleled joy in the space of just one minute. I will never forget it.
Jeremy Clarkson, "A tractor, £200k, a combine, £500k, the equipment costs a fortune, and if you try to price what you're selling there's just a lot of moaning"
"You get people saying, I'm not going to pay that, I can get a chicken from abroad. Yeah, you can. But it's so full of chlorine, it tastes like a swimming pool with a beak"
"There's very little money in farming, very little... And then, we got the budget"
"I know a lot of people took a kick on the shin with that budget.. You lot got a knee in the nuts"
"Rachel Reeves has told us 72% of farms are going to be unaffected by this"
"I've just been interviewed by Victoria Derbyshire from Newsnight.. She was trotting out nobody is affected, Rachel Reeves said so"
"Since when was the BBC the mouthpiece of this infernal government?"
"For the sake everybody here and for all the farmers stuck at home paralysed over a fog of despair of whats been hoisted upon them.. I beg of the government to be big, to accept that this was rushed through, it wasn't thought out, it was a mistake"
"That's the big thing to do, admit it, and back down"
