Harvey's ghost...

 Downing Street are up in arms about Marcus Harvey's portrait of Myra Hyndley, which was shown as part of a promotional video screened in Beijing to demonstrate Britain's rich cultural heritage ahead of the 2012 games. What's all the fuss about? It's a piece of art! It may not represent the height of good taste to some people, but is it any more tasteless than Jack the Ripper tours of Whitechapel or The London Dungeon? C'mon everybody, grow up, after all most of our heritage is based on murder and misdeeds. Let's get as many tourists over here as possible - the Moors, the merrier.

To put it bluntly,

As Comic Book Guy might say,

Best movie ever!
