Any John Rebus Fans?

This is a lovely ten minute watch.

Thanks for that, Tilly. Excellent. :-)

I'm a bit worried about the dog though, Douglas.

I'm sure Siobahn has a key in case the worst happens, Tilly. She's quite organised.

[Tilly2]

Yes, she is, Doug. I wonder how old she is now?

[douglas9401]

About 50 and wearing very well I think. :-)

[Tilly2]

:-) Probably.

We met him in 1987, 22 books ago.

One of Rankin's best bit of writing in years.

Loved Rebus from the word go. Ian Rankin is a lovely man who I have met many times at the Edinburgh Book Festival (sadly cancelled this year). The Edinburgh Rebus walk is well worth the time. A drink in The Oxford is also a must, you might just meet Ian there.

Thank you for that Tilly. Most enjoyable.

I like Brian Cox but I preferred the John Hannah version of Rebus, which apparently, Ian rankin didn't. Hence the change to Ken Stott. Then I stopped watching. I'm not a reader, so the books don't interest me. A good short film though. Well done Brian Cox and Ian rankin.

Ken Stott was far more like the Rebus in the books, if a bit older. I think I read that John Hannah only played him because he, Hannah, bought the rights to film them.

i liked it with Ken Stott, very realistic.
