A silent movie about three young chaps ‘hangin’ in Dublin for a weekend in 1956.
Joe, Alan and Willy check out Dublin’s nightlife, Trinity, Dublin Zoo and Nelson’s Pillar.

Behold BMW’s new e-bike: the Cruise (top speed 25km/h, weight 24kg, range 85km).
The bike has a 250W electric motor powered by a lithium ion battery under the bottom bracket. There’s also an onboard computer and a choice of cycling ‘modes’ including ‘eco’, ‘tour’, ‘sport’ and (ahem) ‘speed/turbo’.
No word on price or release date as yet, but the first 1000 units will be sold only in Germany.
The bike’s non-electric 2009 predecessor is currently on special offer at €700.
Oh, it’s (nearly) ON.
