#2 – Bored of Netflix? Try BFI Player for a more refreshing film treat
BFI Player Online and via apps
From contemporary queer classics like Rafiki (pictured above) to fresh comedy A Guide to Second Date Sex, and even an Aladdin’s cave of musicals from all ages, the BFI player is sure to be home to something different to inspire your day.
#3 – Get creative with your home time and help make a lockdown time capsule
From Home
Be part of the Brighton Digital Festival project From Home when you submit your 3 minute masterpiece.
#4 – Write your first screenplay with the help of this free online course
Introduction to Screenwriting FutureLearn
University of East Anglia’s Michael Lengsfield introduces Writing for Screen, including characters, structure and starting (plus, more crucially, finishing!) your draft.
#5 – Cheese, sex & isolation all combined into a hilarious night in
Anna Mann’s Cheese, Sex and Self-Isolation Party Saturdays at 10pm – Twitch
A snooty review from The Guardian’s Brian Logan can’t stop Anna Mann’s unmissable riot of a night in. Guests have included Mae Martin, Christopher Bliss, Olga Koch, Zach Zucher, Sinbad from Brookside and many more offbeat gems. Pete Heat – the devil himself – is a very entertaining magician who rounds off each episode with a bit of wonder (much to Anna’s violent rage…).
If you’re looking for more Edinburgh-style offbeat comedy, try Next Up: a divine Netflix-style service delivering laughs galore.
What should be on our next things to do in London list?
I am Joint Editor at To Do List. I like free, cheap & offbeat London, especially: cabaret, art, theatre, pop-ups, eating out, quirky films, museums, day trips, social enterprise & much more.
