Video round-up (two videos is a round-up, right?)

Was thinking yesterday about one of the two main Rumpole stories I can recall reading, ‘Rumpole and the Genuine Article,’ and trying to remember if I’d also seen a tv adaptation. I’m still not sure if I watched it, but it turns out one exists, and furthermore the accused forger was played by Emlyn Williams, so now I’ve got to watch it when I get a moment (it’s on Dailymotion https://dai.ly/x5v2ntf).

Meanwhile, Tom Scott has posted his best new episode since the one last month about the bell foundry: ‘Hello From Inside a Tiny Boat.’
https://youtu.be/cMYYcddinkE?si=_EUtwxOGlSK0ZQWz I love how delighted this man gets whenever he’s experiencing some strange mode of transportation; or even when he’s shut in a miniature aircraft-carrier, horizontal and barely able to see where he’s going, yelling “Oh blimey there's a pedalo coming in at speed"or yelping because there’s a large moth inside the tiny Ark Royal and it just landed on his face.

I clicked on the link because I had no idea there was a seaworthy minature of HMS Ark Royal.

Well, artificial-lake-worthy, anyway.

I remember that Rumpole episode -- it was a good season-opener. (I know I read the collection it's in, but don't remember that.)
