Spotted this evening in the the film #TheChoral, there’s a delicious, and poignant echo/foreshadowing of Alan Bennett’s Talking Heads monologue, “Waiting for the Telegram”.
-
J and I just got back from seeing The Choral, in The Ritz, the lovely little independent cinema in Thirsk in Yorkshire.
I enjoyed the film, helped by Alan Bennett’s clever and poignant storytelling, and the lead performance by Ralph Fiennes (plus some great work from the supporting cast).
One of the cast members popped in (unscheduled and a real surprise for the volunteers who run the cinema, it seems) and did a wee introduction at the start!
In other news, it is raining in Yorkshire.
A lot.

HyperioN unleash lyric video for “Rewire, Rebuild” ahead of new album ‘Cybergenesis’
Rising from the heart of Italy’s heavy metal underground, HyperioN have dropped a gripping lyric video for “Rewire, Rebuild,” the second single from their forthcoming album, Cybergenesis. Watch it now on YouTube:
http://www.youtu.be/F_t3ubeiPMc
The track is streaming across all major platforms, including Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Tidal, Pandora, AWA, and Deezer.
Set for release on January 15th, 2026 via Fighter Records, Cybergenesis marks HyperioN’s third full-length studio album and is now available for pre-order: hyperionbandheavy.bandcamp.com/album/cybergenesis
A concept-driven record steeped in classic sci-fi lore, Cybergenesis delivers eight tracks of high-octane traditional heavy metal. The album’s narrative follows a doomed space mission that triggers the awakening of the Choir—an ancient alien hive mind—and humanity’s descent into a brutal war against cyborg overlords. At the center of this rebellion stands the Rhizome Rider, a fallen commander reborn to lead the final charge for freedom.
Drawing inspiration from genre-defining works like Star Trek and Ghost in the Shell, Cybergenesis explores themes of resistance, sacrifice, and the enduring strength of the human spirit.
The album’s cover art was hand-painted by UK illustrator Ryan T. Hancock, known for his work with Seven Sisters, Blood Star, and Stormborn. HyperioN deliberately chose a traditional canvas approach to reflect the album’s raw, human essence.
Tracklist:
- Deafening
- Rewire, Rebuild
- Yet We Still Fight
- The Shackles of Chronitus
- Blood Over Chrome
- Grain of Sand
- Rhizome Rider
- The Whole of Time
Current Line-up:
- Davide Cotti – Guitars
- Francesco Madonna – Drums
- Max Morelli – Vocals
- Simone “Nega” Cauli – Bass
- Francis Dipasquale – Guitars
About HyperioN: Founded in 2015 by drummer Jason Beghelli and guitarist Davide Cotti, HyperioN emerged with a mission to revive traditional heavy metal, channeling the spirit of Metal Church, early Queensrÿche, and Judas Priest. Their debut album Dangerous Days (2017) earned critical acclaim and led to live appearances alongside Italian metal stalwarts.
Following lineup changes and the release of Into The Maelstrom (2020), the band weathered the pandemic and expanded their global reach via Bandcamp and streaming platforms. With a refreshed lineup and renewed creative fire, HyperioN now present Cybergenesis—a bold new chapter that honors their roots while pushing their sound into cinematic, sci-fi territory.

The feast of #CorpusChristi was a favourite of the #14thCentury #LadyOfClare; her household accounts variously record banquets & special dishes. She almost certainly contributed financially to the glorious #LadyChapel at #ElyCathedral - & would have enjoyed hearing the choir of #ClareCollege recording there.

The thread about an A to Z (almost!) of Edinburgh and Leith streets named after women
For International Women’s Day (on March 8th 2021), I thought I would flick through the books and do an A-Z (as far as possible) of Edinburgh and Leith places named after women. Unsurprisingly there are relatively few, to pick from – but there are some fascinating women behind some of the names.
n.b I have tried to keep this thread up to date on occasion, with new street names to fill in some blanks.A is for Annfield in Newhaven. Named for Ann Steuart, wife of John Steuart of Blairhaw, who built a house in late Georgian times. There was a trend for giving places fancy names at the time in the form x–field, where x was usually the name of a wife or daughter.
B is for Mary Burton (1819-1909), a suffragist and campaigner for women’s rights who lived at Liberton Bank House between 1844 and 1898. A street of new-build houses nearby in Gilmerton has been named Burton Place in her honour.
C is for Clarice Mcnab Lane, a brand new street off of West Bowling Green Street in Leith. Born in Leith and known usually by her married name Clarice Shaw, she was a prominent interwar Labour party member and activist. She was MP for Kilmarnock for a year, dying in 1946.
D is for Dauline Road. Marion, Margaret and Helen Dauline of South Queensferry were accused, alongside Helen Thomson, Marion Stein, Marion Little and Isobel Young, of Witchcraft in 1643. At least 8 of the women were executed by burning at the stake. A new build street in South Queensferry is name for them.
E is for Edith Burnet Hughes (1888-1971), the first practising female architect in the UK, establishing her own firm in 1920, and the first woman nominated to the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). She was born at West Circus Place in Stockbridge and is buried in Warriston Cemetery. A new build street that can be seen from that cemetery and that is about half a mile downstream on the Water of Leith from Stockbridge has been named Hughes Close in her honour.
F is for Flora Stevenson‘s, a primary school in Comely Bank named for the Glasgow-borne social reformer who was an early campaigner (with her sister Louisa) for women’s entry into universities and became an organiser of education in the city for poor children; particularly girls and would serve as a convenor on the Edinburgh School Board.
G is for Geissler Drive, named for Alison Geissler and (as of June 2020) one of the newest additions to the street names of Edinburgh. Alison was a lauded glass engraver with an MBE for her services to her craft and lived to the grand age of 103. Her grandson is Martin Geissler, the ITV and BBC news broadcaster and correspondent.
H is for Hope Street. Not named after a woman, but named because of a woman. In 1803, Mrs Maxwell of Carriden (nee Mary Charlotte Bouverie) wrote to the town council to complain that she lived on a street with no name. The council obliged by naming it for a man: Stuart Harris says this may have been Charles Hope of Granton MP, Lord Advocate. An alternative explanation may be that it was for Admiral Sir George Hope of Carriden, a 2nd cousin of Granton.
I is for Elsie Inglis Way, named in 2019 in Abbeyhill for the well known (but not well enough) WW1 military doctor, suffragist, teacher, campaigner, philanthropist, organiser and pioneer of women’s’ medicine in the city. A maternity hospital nearby once bore her name.
J is for Jex-Blake Drive, a new build street in Abbeyhill named for Sophia Jex-Blake, one of the first seven women to study medicine at the University of Edinburgh, the first female doctor in Scotland and founder of 2 medical schools for women, Bruntsfield Maternity Hospital, amongst many other things.
K is for Mary King’s Close, that well known tourist trap, and subject of endless paranormal hot air. Mary King was the widow of Alexander King, a burgess of the city, in the early-mid 17th c. – except that she probably wasn’t… Who she actually was is not entirely clear. The close had been partially abandoned after the plague of 1645, and was still vacant in 1751 when a neighbouring tenement collapsed. This opened up a gap that was widened to create a space for the construction of the Royal Exchange, which would later become the City Chambers. The tenements in the upper parts of Mary King’s Close (and two others) were largely built over, but the lower parts remained occupied, and were so well into the 19th century. It was the construction of Cockburn Street in 1854 that really swept away Mary King’s Close.
L is for Lady Lawson Street, formed from Lady Lawson’s Wynd. The Lawsons were landowners in the West Port as early as the 15th century. That Lady Lawson herself became recorded as landowner is unusual and notable in itself.
M is for Murray Cottages, named after David Murray, Deputy Controller for Excise in Scotland, but on behalf of his last surviving daughter, who left the family fortune to a fund for providing housing for the “deserving (and pious) poor“. The Almonry Fund (an Almoner is someone who distributes funds to the poor, usually on behalf of the church) was set up on her behalf in 1905. Prospective candidates were to be “sober, respectable, men and women about sixty years” (i.e. a married couple) who “must have spent most of their lives in Edinburgh or its immediate vicinity and preferably have belonged to the Church of Scotland“.
N is for Nicolson Square (and Street). These were built between 1765-1780 on the park lands and house of Lady Nicolson, Elizabeth Carnegie. She moved to the Pear Tree House (now the Pear Tree pub) to allow the road and square to be built. The Nicolson Baronets had owned the land here since the early 16th century, the title becoming dormant in 1743 on the death of her husband, the 7th Baronet. The house (highlighted yellow) remained here until around 1790 when Nicolson Street and South Bridge were connected.
O is for Lady Nairne a neighbourhood (and Beefeater pub and restaurant) in Duddingston with 4 streets taking the honorific name of Carolina Oliphant. Baroness Nairne lived here in the early 19th century. A prolific songwriter, and contemporary of Burns, amongst other well known romantic ballads she wrote “Will ye no’ come back again?” and “Charlie is my Darling“.
P is for Pape’s Cottages in Roseburn, named by George Pape in his will, in memory of his wife Jessie Paterson, who was the landowner of Coltbridge House. The three cottages were built for “the use of poor widows in all time coming“.
Q is for Queens take your pick of Queens; Anne, Charlotte, Margaret, Alexandra, Mary of Guise or Ferry. Queen Charlotte Street in Leith, was originally Charlotte Street, but was renamed in the 1960s to avoid confusion with the street of the same name in Edinburgh’s New Town.
R is for the Reverend Elizabeth Wardlaw, whose name is on the name bank for Leith. The long time minister of Hermitage United Free Church and a Councillor for Leith Links from 1984 – 2003. She was a supporter of Leith Festival.
S is for Saint Triduana, long associated with Restalrig, and gives her name to some streets and a medical centre in the area. Her beautiful eyes were lusted after by a Pictish king, so she plucked them out and sent him them, thereafter devoting her life to the blind. The church at Restalrig and the cult of Triduana were both destroyed in the Scottish reformation in 1560.
T is for Townswomen’s Guild Walk, one of the paths across the Meadows. It was named in 1973 after the gift to the city of the trees that line it by the guild.
I’m afraid I drew a blank on U…
V is for anything named after Queen Victoria. Victoria Terrace, Park, School, Baths etc. Take your pick, the lady needs no introduction.
W is for Mary and Barbara Walker of Coates, sisters who lived at Coates Hall in the 19th c. They gifted the land for – and huge funds to – the Episcopal Church of Scotland in 1873 for the building of St Mary’s Cathedral. Coates Hall was left by them in their will as the Choir School.
X is a blank, as there are no X– streets in Edinburgh.
Y is for Lady Yester, Margaret Hay, who in 1647 gave a benefaction of 10,000 Merks to the city to establish a new parish church. This became known as Lady Yester’s Kirk, and served the south east district of the Old Town.
Finally, there is only one Z street in Edinburgh (which is named for Zetland, the archaic form of Shetland), so that too is a blank.
I’ve frequently referred to the council’s name bank here, you can see it too at this link. There is meant to be a presumption towards giving women’s names priority, but look at the list and make of that priority what you will.
