We’re publishing a lost 19th C classic: ‘Shameless Wayne’ by Halliwell Sutcliffe. With feuding farmers and the ghost-dog Barguest, it also contains some of the most beautiful descriptions of the #Yorkshire landscape we’ve ever read. amzn.eu/d/7V4GyDX

@SaltyShep @Andr6wMale @davidbowie_news Saw this in Paris the day after we went to a Tin Machine concert. Enjoyed it then but can’t wait to see the version you always wanted to make. Well done!

I'm finally proud of my 1st film. It only took 30 years. In 1991 the film was taken away from me in editing. Broke my heart. I finally got rights back, created a Director's cut & today THE LINGUINI INCIDENT is finally out. Please spread the word. Doing this by hand. #davidbowie
