Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 18th September 2026.

18th September, 2026.

Can someone do me a huge favour?

Play this list to my nephew, Jude?

Just skip past “Plaistow Patricia”!

Just as a thought … ?

I watched “The Eyes”, last night: the first episode of For All Mankind spin-off, Star City.

Or, at least, tried to.

I managed to watch the first half hour, at any rate.

I’ll be honest: I may have to try again.

But this first episode struck me as very slow … 

We’ll see.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 8-9-2017

That’s a thought … 

I’ve got the radio on: or, at least, Radio 4 is on, on my digital TV.

The Today programme, so you know.

Of course, they’ve had a brief item on Le Carré’s latest work, A Legacy of Spies: the most recent, and possibly the last, to feature Le Carré’s most famous character.

Smiley … 

They made a rather good point.

That Bond?   Is not a spy: he’s really a hired gun, an assassin.

Smiley, on the other, is something Britain is rather good at.

Being not a spy … but a wizard … 

I’m not sure if they have a thought, there, or not: but the fact the character’s an old fashioned sort of spy, a wizard in the sense that his powers come from knowing that one extra fact?

Certainly made sense to me.

And matches very well wit Alec Guinness’s other well known role: of a wizard with a magic sword* …
