20th May 2011

Night off from Paris and the teenage angst...went to see Mike Leigh's latest film, Another year....wow as usual he blows me away, always leave his films emotional and touched and grounded...ok so I'm not a writer or a movie critic, sue me...

Todays story also sad and numbing, haven't touched on it yet so unfortunately it is at this point in the news I am covering this story.

Are you ok, Anton? No!

For six weeks three captured journalists kept their terrible secret in a Libyan jail:
South African photographer Anton Hammerl had been fatally shot by Libyan forces six weeks ago. But the journalists knew if they revealed this their lives would be in danger.Two of the three American journalists, who were released this week, Clare Morgana Gillis and James Foley, phoned Hammerl's  wife Penny in London last night and told her of her husband's fate.
