Tyrant Posted March 31, 2018 Report Posted March 31, 2018 Anyone know of a stream for the boxing so I can make sure it’s been reported? Quote
manc_don Posted April 4, 2018 Report Posted April 4, 2018 I rarely watch TV but I watched a DVD of Romper Stomper the film about 10 years ago. Not the most PC film Ive seen ,but an entertaining watch They've made a new series of it and looks like they'll make a second season. Pretty brutal and certainly not PC either. Worth a watch. Also just finished watching Wildlands which is about the war on drugs, whether its working etc. Made by "Rusty" who wrote Marching Powder. good watch Quote
rocket_scientist Posted April 4, 2018 Report Posted April 4, 2018 Very clever ad on TV just now. Dilly Dilly. It nails what is idiosyncratically English. Annoying as fuck. Quote
BigAl Posted April 4, 2018 Report Posted April 4, 2018 Below The Surface - BBC4 Saturday nights Last two episodes this weekend, but the whole series should be on IPlayer Follows events of a terrorist hostage taking on Copehagen's underground. Partly in English, partly in Danish with subtitles Quote
Tyrant Posted April 6, 2018 Report Posted April 6, 2018 Very clever ad on TV just now. Dilly Dilly. It nails what is idiosyncratically English. Annoying as fuck. Ha! Was thinking the same thing to myself this morning. It's effective. It reminds me of what Bud did in 2000. Quote
Kowalski Posted April 7, 2018 Author Report Posted April 7, 2018 Below The Surface - BBC4 Saturday nights Last two episodes this weekend, but the whole series should be on IPlayer Follows events of a terrorist hostage taking on Copehagen's underground. Partly in English, partly in Danish with subtitles It’s decent but it always amazes me how many recognisable people from other Scandinavian dramas appear in the latest one. There’s somebody from Borgen and one from The Killing. They seem to have a small set of acting talent in Denmark. They make good dramas though. Quote
rocket_scientist Posted April 7, 2018 Report Posted April 7, 2018 If you missed Limmy on Thursday then you better have had a better excuse than washing your hair. I had a good excuse but I iPlayered it yesterday afternoon when I got home and it was immensely awesome. As expected. One two one two... Quote
KennyFuckinPowers Posted April 11, 2018 Report Posted April 11, 2018 Damnation ( On Netflix ) Literally shit hot and after 4 episodes, immediately became my favourite TV show. Quote
manc_don Posted April 26, 2018 Report Posted April 26, 2018 Second season of the handmaids tale, epic two episodes so far Quote
baggy89 Posted April 26, 2018 Report Posted April 26, 2018 It’s decent but it always amazes me how many recognisable people from other Scandinavian dramas appear in the latest one. There’s somebody from Borgen and one from The Killing. They seem to have a small set of acting talent in Denmark. They make good dramas though. TBF that's true of everywhere, it's always been true in the UK and most of ours are now doing it in americaland too, especially with the advent of streaming services and the increased demand for and exposure TV series are getting. Off the top of my head; Walton Goggins, The Shield, Sons of Anarchy, Justified. Timothy Olyphant, Deadwood, Justified, Santa Clarita Diet. Ian McShane, Deadwood, Ray Donovan, American Gods. Paula Malcomson Deadwood, Sons of Anarchy, Ray Donovan, Broken, Come Home Dayton Callie, Deadwood, Sons of Anarchy, Fear the Walking Dead Mahershala Ali, The 4400, Treme, House of Cards, Luke Cage, (and the latest True Detective?) Molly Parker, Deadwood, House of Cards, Goliath, Lost in Space Martin Freeman, The Office, Fargo, Sherlock, Start Up. Or maybe it's just actors from Deadwood... Quote

rocket_scientist Posted April 29, 2018 Report Posted April 29, 2018 Mountain. Just finished on BBC4 just now. Narrated by Willem Dafoe. One of the best hours of TV ever made. Stunning. Elgindon would love it. Quote
KennyFuckinPowers Posted April 30, 2018 Report Posted April 30, 2018 Happy ( On Netflix ) Definitely worth watching, don't let the Unicorn put you off Quote
Elgindon Posted April 30, 2018 Report Posted April 30, 2018 Was that the one about Ben Nevis RS? Watch very little TV,but will Iplayer it.Heard a few folk raving about it Quote
rocket_scientist Posted May 1, 2018 Report Posted May 1, 2018 No not about Ben Nevis or any specific mountain or range. Would be a spoiler to give any more detail. Just do it. Quote
tom_widdows Posted May 19, 2018 Report Posted May 19, 2018 'The Young Person's guide to becoming a Rock star' box set now available on All4 Hadn't seen it since its original run in 1998 and its one of my favourite ever programmes. Quite fun spotting the areas of Glasgow, particularly the bits they try to pass off as London. http://www.channel4.com/programmes/young-persons-guide-to-becoming-a-rock-star Quote
minijc Posted May 20, 2018 Report Posted May 20, 2018 Ended up blitzing through Safe on Netflix last night, so good, an easy 8/10 Quote
RicoS321 Posted May 20, 2018 Report Posted May 20, 2018 Ended up blitzing through Safe on Netflix last night, so good, an easy 8/10 Agreed, couple of episodes to go and been pretty decent. Quote
manc_don Posted May 20, 2018 Report Posted May 20, 2018 Ended up blitzing through Safe on Netflix last night, so good, an easy 8/10 Excellent, need a new show, really enjoyed deep state. Will check out toms recommendation too Quote
Guest jinkyjoe Posted May 21, 2018 Report Posted May 21, 2018 Caught "The Damned United" on BBC2 the other night. Excellent film with Michael Sheen starring as Brian Clough. Well worth a watch if you've never seen it before. Back to fitba as it should be. Quote
BigAl Posted May 21, 2018 Report Posted May 21, 2018 Does anyone still watch Homeland ? Just finished season seven and thought it was the best one for some time. Started watching "The Looming Tower" on Prime and shaping up very nicely after three episodes Quote
RicoS321 Posted May 21, 2018 Report Posted May 21, 2018 Does anyone still watch Homeland ? Just finished season seven and thought it was the best one for some time. Yep. By virtue of anything after season 2 being fairly pap, the last season was quite good. I only still watch it to see how long they can keep it going. It's impressive in that respect. Should have finished after season 1 really, maybe 2. Quote
