CHRISTOPHER STEVENS on TV: Anyone fancy a shot of Gilead gin? Wham, bam, no thank you ma'am!

Hits sung by Kate Bush, Debbie Harry and Grace Slick have made an equally unforgettable impact. As the series returned last week, the commentary hidden in the music became even more twisted.
Rebel handmaid June (Elisabeth Moss) gave 15-year-old Esther (Mckenna Grace) a slaughterman s knife and urged the girl to butcher the brute who raped her.
When Esther returned, soaked in blood, June comforted her to the sound of Carole King and (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman.
If little Esther with her psychotic temper and demented elf s scowl is a natural woman, I d feel safer with synthetic, thank you.

The school for spies: Now on sale for £2.25m, it was a top-secret academy for secret agents


The grounds of a stately mansion in a beautiful but remote corner of the Scottish Highlands, and a tall, genial young man with a moustache and the tattoo of a fish on his left arm he’s nicknamed ‘Fish’ for John Fisher is creeping through the dark.
In his hand is a double-bladed dagger, designed for silent killing: a sharp thrust to the throat and the victim slumps dead in a pool of blood.
He is a master of close, unarmed combat and fieldcraft how to stalk an enemy unseen and how to survive in the wild as well as how to use explosives, a Sten gun and pistol.
