29th October, 2018.
Yes: it’s official.
I’ve got a copy of David Bowie’s Blackstar album in my iTunes library.
I’ve a few, since you ask.
But that one, released literally days before The man’s death?
Well, it’s powerful …
~≈§≈~
But that’s possibly a distraction …
Possibly …
Given that I’ve had both a day off, plenty of Brian Eno playing away on the Apple TV, as we speak …
And enough time to have watched the last episode of The Man in the High Castle third season.
And, yes: I think that’s a cracker …
~≈§≈~
Episode 10 — Jahr Null — sees Juliana, Wyatt and Chuck (Alexa Davalos, Jason O’Mara and Arpad Balogh) managing to get into the secret Nazi base in the Pocomos …
Only to get there just as Oberst-Gruppenführer Smith (Rufus Sewell) and Reichs Führer Himmler (Kenneth Tigar) himself are watching the Nazi designed portal to other worlds being tested …
The test finishes … with three dead bodies …
And the capture of Juliana, and of Hawthorne Abendsen (Stephen Root), the Man in the High Castle, himself.
Jahr Null, Year Zero, itself?
Swings into action, later in the episode.
And someone putting a bullet through the Führer …
~≈§≈~
Now … it’s late …
I’m tired …
But I’m definitely pleased to have seen season three of The Man in the High Castle.
I’m like you: at least I think I am!
I’m assuming that you, as I am human: and, as such, you like playing ‘What If’ as much as I do.
This season of The Man in the High Castle, with whiffs of the Cultural Revolution, the Cambodian genocide, lord knows what else …
With strong performances, and restrained villainy …
Has been a pleasure to watch …
Here’s looking forward to the forth season …

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
Thank you.
* I know many value their online privacy. I respect that. But hope you respect my wish to see who’s commenting on my blog: and my wish for you to introduce your self to me, and to your fellow commentors.
