Every time Penny Mordaunt comes up I have to remind myself that her name belongs to a person, and not to a ship

TACD posted:"Mordaunt" sounds like a boss–level evil wizard, shrouded in night and casting pestilence on all it touches. It gets much more wizard-esque when you remember that her forename is Penelope.

Belongs on the secret menu of a Victorian opiate-den.

learnincurve posted:I'm old and was in france during the incredibly insane heatwave they had in the late 80s. Forests and vineyards spontaneously combusted. There was a heat wave in France in the early 2000s. The morgues were overcrowded with unclaimed elderly victims of the heat because families didn’t want to come back early from their August vacations. But vintners had an excellent harvest they year.

Jonnie Peacock has asked to be removed from Penny Mordaunt's video. No comment from Oscar Pistorius so far.

Definite "this is the last thing we wanted to happen" vibes following that mordaunt video. Just waiting to hear it includes a clip of Jimmy Saville and Fred West at this point.

Oh, lord, the dissolve from Penny Mordant to Prime Minister. Two questions about the video: (1) What's the music? (2) Is this incredibly White?

I hope it doesn't get that hot. It makes me really sad about how little I can do to make the world better and makes me want to cry.

I'm glad I'm powerless to materially affect the world. I'd only gently caress it up.

Decent piece of music that does get used by a lot of folks to represent the rolling hills of England and such unfortunately. Edit: Haha yeah I was trying to find that Day Today video because I'm pretty sure I looked up the music when I heard it in that video.

I revised the post a couple of times to try and make it sound less like some sort of hobbit firing squad but that was the best I could manage.

OwlFancier posted:That is probably why I keep thinking it's jerusalem cos they probably do both at the proms. I Vow To Thee... isn't sung at the Last Night of the Proms. It's more of a Remembrance Sunday thing, and usually gets the full 'choir of Chelsea pensioners each shed a single tear as they are surrounded by poppy petals dropped from a drone mocked up as a Lancaster' treatment at the Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall. Jerusalem is always the closing song (except the national anthem) at the Proms. It's a much better song - lyrically, musically and message - than I Vow To Thee, which Gustav Holst had no desire and zero energy to set to music, realised that his melody from The Planet would fit with a bit of tweaking and sent it in.
