The Eurovision song contest took place in Israel last night.

I have the  fondest  memories of the country and the people, be it Arabic, or Jewish,having spent some months on a kibbutz  there.
But the film "Spy" was also on TV.  It has the immensely likeable Jason Statham.I have never liked pretty pretty boys.My husband used to joke I only like the "monkey" faces,as my favourite actor had always been  Walter Matthau.      Now it is Mr Statham. Even though he is very handsome.
Mr Statham's  self aggrandising  soliloquies in "Spy" are hilarious,  delivered with such  aplomb.He is a fine comedy actor.  The three  men clad in silver foil and some strange concoction on the head, singing  in German and dancing on stage, is the funniest moment  in the whole film and the producers should have made more of it.
