9.11 The round-up of the series, mainly the heats really, but with a bit towards the end on the semi-final and final.
PAotY 2022
9.12 Celebrity Christmas Special - Noddy Holder, Mica Paris and Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen got to sit for celebrity painters, two of whom were Jedward, and Ronni Ancona had been a sitter in an earlier series. Jason Merrells won with his take on Noddy.
I've really enjoyed binge-watching this series. Somewhat in keeping, I would have followed on with the Landscape Artist of the Year, except I didn't realise they were going to do so and it's probably as well, since I can catch up on some other stuff instead.

4 - City of Heroes
How New York is the de facto choice for Gotham, Metropolis and others, and how therefore 9/11 made such a difference to the world of comics.

5 - The Colour of Comics
How Marvel originated Black Panther, then there was Luke Cage, and then some actual black people devised Milestone Comics to make more effort with comic titles. Until their distribution deal with DC Comics backfired.

Billy Connolly and Aly Baig - Fishing For Poetry
A tribute to Norman McCaig in which the comedian and singer (and others) trek to some remote Scottish Loch to fish, even though the odds are astronomical and they do indeed catch nowt. Must have been quite a while back as Billy seemed in reasonable health.

An Aussie actress, the youngest of 4, who at this time had been in some Nick Hornby adaptation, but otherwise made no impression on me.
OC w/SJ - Rosamund Pike
She played Marie Colvin in some film, and was also in Gone Girl, but such is diction (or hearing) it didn't help that they also discussed her as a Bond girl
