THE WARRIORS was released 46 years ago this month. Acclaimed as one of the great 1970s NYC movies, and a true cult classic, the story of how it was made involved real gangs, vomiting extras and a future star who didn't make the cut. Can you dig it?

Be Here (@skytv) Now (9pm)
My first stand up special The Varnishing Days is on tonight 9pm, Sky Comedy and then available for those nonlinear, right brained folk on @NOWTV.
Jermaine Jenas mentioned alongside Van Gogh quite early on. Lesson learned, only talk about the dead.
In the @guardian today talking about the two worst men in comedy and also trying not to kick off at a commenter who thinks I’m posh etc https://t.co/GkPXcirzic
@looksunfamiliar A little bit before the Brit-Pop Era but this is an absolutely perfect album. Many happy memories of wandering the moors with this on my Walkman absolutely of my napper on acid.
I’ve just come across this documentary about three hair salons in Blackpool in 1994 and oh my God, it’s sheer perfection.
I’ll leave you with some highlights; Gwen’s whisky, the incident at Kwiksave, the funeral bag and the death of Maureen.
