The Filmhouse is showing Edinburgh College of Art Film and TV tonight at 20.30. “A dazzling array of films from our 2011 grads – a hallucinatory girlfriend, octogenarian tea dancers, a mail order robotic man, wanderlust in Bulgaria and 100 slices of toast are just some of the elements in these new films by ECA’s graduates. Come and be the first to see the latest talent from ECA film and TV Department – winner of 4 New Talent BAFTAs this year.”

The Scottish Book Awards got a bit excited yesterday when Stephen Fry mentioned them in a tweet. They have their shortlist here and you could always vote if you have read any of the books. The prize will be announced on 26 August.

Edinburgh’s streets are apparently the second most congested in the UK according to a survey revealed by The Scotsman.

STV Edinburgh advise that one side of George Street will be closed today for the Hard Rock birthday party – and we are invited! So we will tell you all about it later.

The photograph today is another one of our own. It is there to serve as a reminder that there will be films there later in the week – outdoors so we are hoping for great weather!
