It's time for the return of one of the biggest events of any Formula 1 season - the United States Grand Prix. The stretch of time that has elapsed since his parents’ death in 1971, two years before his wife Jean, now astonishes Briggs. If you haven’t had children, he says, “deaths are the biggest event of your life”. And once you reach old age yourself, as he quotes from Muriel Spark’s novel Memento Mori, it’s like living on a battlefield, with friends either going or gone. But Briggs has also made space in Time for Lights Out for Spark’s pointed remark on the importance of facing up to mortality: “There is no other practice which so intensifies life.” The buzz-term for Old Time Radio is "OTR". OTR usually means radio broadcasting from the golden age of radio, Sky F1's live coverage from COTA begins on Thursday night with The F1 Show, while there's a special programme ahead of our usual qualifying build-up on Saturday evening looking at the engrossing title battle between Hamilton and Verstappen so far with six defining - and deciding - rounds to go this season.

In a textile factory, an employee named Esther encounters a silhouette of a woman when the lights are off, but cannot see it when the lights are on. She warns her boss Paul. After she leaves, Paul encounters the woman and notices that she will not come into the light. He is killed by the woman after she chases him through the factory. A short time later, a young woman named Rebecca is called into the school nurse's office because of her brother, Martin. Rebecca and Martin are half-siblings, sharing the same mom: Sophie. The nurse was unable to get in touch with Sophie to inform her that Martin has been falling asleep in class lately. An official from Child Protective Services questions Rebecca about Martin's living conditions. Rebecca tells the official Sophie has depression, and is taking antidepressants. Rebecca also tells the official that Paul was her stepfather, and that her real father ran away when she was a child.. McNary, Dave (July 27, 2016).

Hides all the highway elements except for the strikeline, multiplier, star power meter, and life meter.I always loved Briggs's books as a boy, especially classics like Fungus the Bogeyman and Father Christmas. Now in middle age, I was really looking forward to what seemed to promise some more mature reflections on life and death along with more of Briggs's beautiful drawings.

The ‘Now’ section presents Briggs as a seventy-something year old who surveys himself as an old man and is somewhat annoyed that this is what he has turned into. On walks he finds the hills are harder to climb. His days are marked out by routines he and his partner doggedly adhere to. He observes that he has become less tolerant of other people’s appearance and behaviour. All of this is written with unflinching insight and wry humour. Briggs recognises his foibles and failings. Although poignant in places there is no expectation of sympathy. Fans won’t have long to wait until the lights go out – the Dutch Grand Prix is due to start today (September 4) at 2pm UK time.

The calendar also holds the maiden voyage for the Miami Grand Prix, the first of two races in the United States in 2022, with the customary United States GP taking place in October. Raymond Briggs is now in his eighties and apparently contemplating life’s end. He has stated that he expects Time for Lights Out to be his last book – it took him over a decade to create. Given the subject matter it may sound depressing but this is not the case. Although searingly honest about an aging body’s failings and inevitable future, the tone is more reflective than bleak.

Briggs is aware of his grumpy old man stance and skewers himself through the occasional appearance of ‘Prodnose’, who some might remember from Beachcomber columns.

When Rebecca (Teresa Palmer) left home, she thought that her childhood fears were behind her. As a young girl growing up, she was never really sure of what was real when the lights went out at night. Now, her little brother Martin (Gabriel Bateman) is experiencing the same unexplained and terrifying events that jeopardized her safety and sanity. Holding a mysterious attachment to their mother (Maria Bello), a supernatural entity has returned with a vengeance to torment the entire family. Scott Mendelson (June 24, 2016).
