It's Andy Samberg versus Kit Harrington in TV tennis mockumentary 7 Days In Hell. Here's a new trailer...
Anyone who only has a passing interest in the sport of tennis has probably thought 'just how ruddy long can this match go on for?'
If that's your stance, Andy Samberg's new comedy 7 Days In Hell could be ideal viewing. It's a TV movie destined for HBO, where it will land in the USA on Saturday the 11th of July. The film chronicles an epic week-long tennis game between Samberg's Charles Lloyd Poole and Kit Harrington's Aaron Williams.
Harrington's geek cred and our love for Brooklyn-99 aren't the only things drawing us to the project, either. Karen Gillan of Doctor Who and Guardians Of The Galaxy is also in the movie, as is Girls' Lena Dunham, and a lot of actual tennis celebrities.
Here's the trailer...

Highly individual American drummer, bandleader and jazz visionary who toured with Lena Horne in the 1950s
A hundred years into its evolution, jazz incorporates ethnic and European classical instruments, drum machines and DJs spinning decks. A half-century or so ago, hardware habits were more cut and dried. A jazz big band had trumpets, trombones, saxes and a rhythm section. A small band had a rhythm section, a sax and trumpet, with maybe a guitar or a vibraphone. One that featured a (very quiet) guitarist, a flute or clarinet, a cellist, and a drummer who preferred mallets to sticks seemed like a strange beast in the jazz forest.
But the groups of the American drummer Chico Hamilton, who has died aged 92, did feature such instrumentation and, contrary to the jazz orthodoxies of the 1950s, they were for a time runaway successes. Hamilton led West Coast bands in that decade that came...
