  We watched The Hardacres episode three (we are behind on this show), The Great British Bake-Off, and the latest episode of Gogglebox, and an episode of Star Wars The Bad Batch.  We also watched the Tales of the Unexpected episode Depart In Peace starring Joseph Cotten , Gloria Grahame , Maureen O’Brien , John Bennett , and Peter Cellier . The story was about a man who asks an artist to paint a portrait of a lady, without them knowing who the benefactor is, but the picture is to humiliate her. However, always be careful of a woman scorned.  I recorded an episode of When They Was Fab with Ed.  I did some editing of an episode of Toppermost of the Poppermost.  We watched the film Three Men and a Baby, starring Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg, and Ted Danson. Directed by Leonard Nimoy. Available in the U.K. for free on Disney Plus.  We watched the film Deadpool and Wolverine, starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman. Directed by Shaun Levy. Available in the U.K. for free on Disney Plus.  Tr
