A supermoon is where a full moon is closer to the Earth. This one was called Hunter's Moon which is just the popular name given to a full moon at this time of year.
gorgeous EL love moon photos

Good morning everyone
Going to be wet and windy weather here this morning but not expected to be as bad as elsewhere.
I hope everyone has a good day
Slim. nothing new worth watching on the Talking Pictures tv channel during the coming week. I note that on Thursday "Valentino" (1951) is being shown, am indifferent biopic of the silent film star. Possibly more watchable than the Ken Russell film of that name but that's not a recommendation. One minor bit of trivia is that one of the characters in the film was played by Dona Drake, who was also the Rita Rio of the clips I posted some time ago of Rita Rio and her all girl band.
Slim, I haven;t mentioned "How Green was my Valley" (1941) to you before. John Ford's classic film on life in a coal mining village. Deservedly won several Oscars including Best Picture and Director. It's on Film Four tomorrow at 12.40.

I'm not surprised that it has 5 stars in the Radio Times, Slim
"How Green was my Valley" has been shown a number of times over the years on television so you may find that you have seen it before.
There's another film called "The Stars Look Down" (1940) which is also about a British coal mining community. Has a different storyline though. So it would be quite easy to confuse one film with the other A good film which the Radio Times gives it 4 stars.

And a version of that played on another piano which is somewhat different:

The planet Mars has come to Gloucester cathedral:

The artist Luke Jerram has previously shown the Moon which I mentioned quite some time ago.

Sounds like quite an amazing experience, will you be going to see it El?

Probably not Slim as you can find clips of Luke Jerram's Mars on youtube. Looks as if he created it 3 years ago and has been shown elsewhere during that time.
Besides Mars and the Moon, some years ago he made Gaia (the Earth). That was also shown at Gloucester cathedral and Luke Jerram created this video which is in 360°. So you can rotate the view during the clip. It's 33 minutes long.
