Journeys through the late-night TV underworld

[altariel]

BBC2 was showing some chap playing Bach. He strode into an empty church - wearing a long black coat and shades - did his stuff, and then strode out again. Now I know what hitmen do in between gigs.

Switching over, I caught the last 20 minutes of The Passion of the Christ. I fear Monty Python may have ruined me for good on that one.

Now I'm looking for late night poker. Or Law and Order. There must be some Law and Order showing somewhere...

Oh, my mother told me about him! He was going round playing all the organs left from the time of Bach, or something like that - there was definitely some Munro-bagging angle. And he did just walk in, drop his coat, play, grab his coat and walk out.

I'm watching the gay bus conductor's love story on BBC4 again.

Hm, missed that on my flick-through...

It'll probably turn up again - I've seen it twice this week. It's part of a documentary called Little Platform, Big Stage (http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcfour/documentaries/features/little-platform.shtml). Oh, we're on to the singing conductor now...

That's the one! This was an organ in Germany that 'Bach knew', if I'm remembering the credits correctly.
