The Hare #10 [Winter Solstice 2025]
Five recommendations for Yuletide viewing
Just a short extra bulletin with a handful of video recommendations to tide you over the season. Back with the usual format at the start of January…
The Hare’s alternative Yuletide film guide
C.M. Taylor’s beautiful newsletter explores the creative act, visually and verbally, and hosts his haunting little (and award-winning) Slow & Spurious films, like this one or this.
For some informative archaeology, turn to Adam Morgan Ibbotson’s YouTube channel, where you can find videos such as this one on ‘Northern England’s weird prehistoric line’.
Speaking of YouTube, in the time it takes to eat a mince pie or two, you could also consume one of musician and videographer Mark Williamson’s atmospheric little Stone Reports – Season 2 here.
And of course Mark Gatiss is back with another Ghost Story for Christmas on the BBC: The Room in the Tower.
Or for something retro and low-fi, how about Malcolm Christopher’s 1976 BBC drama Stones, about ‘a series of strange events connected with Stonehenge’?
And of course don’t forget that The Hare is brought to you by Northern Earth, the journal of people, places and experience!
The Mark Gatiss Ghost Story was a great watch!
