A couple of Doctor Who-related tidbits:
* Britain's Pinewood film studio has announced an exhibit focusing on underwater filming, which includes images from underwater shoots for "Doctor Who" and other TV shows and movies.
* A British community is trying to save one of the last-remaining TARDIS-like police call boxes left in the country.

NPR celebrates the 100th anniversary of genius jazz musician Lester Young. The tenor sax was a key member of the Count Basie Orchestra and one of Billie Holliday's favorite accompanists. Here's a clip of the two together:
-----
Also on NPR: Elvis Costello and Allen Touissant on "Piano Jazz."
-----
Ultra Swank checks into the groovy Disneyland Hotel.
-----
Man, Jack Kirby could do a lot with three panels.

Man, I never realized there was a Lucky Luke film and TV series. Thanks, Booksteve, for setting me straight. I wish those of us in the U.S. could see it--not to mention all those Asterix movies--on DVD.

The LUCKY LUKE series was available on VHS in this country a few years afer it ran elsewhere. I used to see them at Half Price Books for 3.99 a tape. While Hill easily makes the character his own, purists will be disappointed as visually he looks nothing like in the comic.
