Monday's Breakfast Briefing

By Derek Davis 24th Aug 2020

Did you know?

The epic event film Tenet is released in the cinemas on Wednesday. The word Tenet stone contains five words (the central word being "Tenet") made up of 25 letters and reads exactly the same forwards as it does backwards. It can be found across Europe, and has been located on different buildings, walls and urban dwellings as early as 79AD. The most famous version is in Oppede, France. One likely translation of the Square is "The farmer Arepo has [as] works wheels [a plough]".

The film is described as a spy thriller using time aversion.
