Adelaide Tiger Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Just flicking through YouTube and came across an excerpt of Freddie Starr doing his tribute to the song ‘Vincent’ in 1993. Thank God I had my corset on or my sides would have split with laughter and ended up in next doors back yard! Absolute genius. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I saw Freddie Starr on TV, he was being investigated by some paranormal types, apparently he was possessed by a demon, it was supposed to be a serious programme but it was hilarious.

Stirlin Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 22 hours ago, Futtocks said: Coming soon to ITV, Nolly, a 3-part biopic of Noele Gordon from Crossroads. Written by Russell T.Davies, starring Helena Bonham Carter in the title role and Mark Gatiss as Larry Grayson. It all seems so unlikely, I've set myself a reminder to watch at least the first episode. Acorn Antiques revisited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number 16 Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Just binge watched the fourth series of Fauda on Netflix, and like the first three, it's absolutely superb. It's an Israeli drama about an undercover unit operating in the Palestinian Territories. It's very realistic, perhaps unsurprisingly given that all the actors served in the IDF, and saw action. It's fairly even-handed and certainly worth a watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glemiln Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 “If you are into French films (with subtitles) “La Belle Époque” is not to be missed, but you have 1 month only to view. An ingenious film of a disillusioned 60+ whose marriage is on the rocks, who opts to relive the week of his life when, 40 years earlier, he met his true love. A poignant and fun story with sublime acting and direction.” Just noticed that this excellent film has reappeared (last seen a year ago). Unfortunately, it will cost £4.49 on Amazon Prime, £3.49 on Sky - perhaps it will drift freely to BBCIPlayer in due course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedford Roughyed Posted January 30, 2023 Author Share Posted January 30, 2023 Ep3 - The Last of Us. A departure from the last 2 episodes but such a well crafted and fantastically acted hour of tv. Will upset some I'm sure, but it was quite beautiful. 1 With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did get me though that an American squadron of 10 F35s were on board for the mission which meant there was actually more American jets than British ones as we only had 8 on board!

Although we have seen them all dozens of times we are still watching these brilliant repeats - maybe the last of the great comedies before the woke brigade crushed TV humour and general comedy as if it was filmed these days the characters would not have been cast for the pure reason they fitted the roles 100%- they would have been cast on religion. race, sexuality and disability with half the script scrubbed out resulting in modern day comedy crop we now have to be told is funny!

DavidM Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 I used to watch quite a lot of yesterday channel and they were making pretty regular original history documentaries . I seem to be watching much less of it as ( just a perception ) there’s far fewer new original stuff and much more repeated stuff from elsewhere and their own shows repeated filling the schedules day after day . There’s even a night of Allo Allo … Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazza77 Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 The more I watch early doors as it becomes available on iPlayer, the more I appreciate the quality of the writing. First time I've seen it since originally aired, and back in the day I didn't watch every episode. For me, it's now up there with Father Ted (another I didn't really appreciate when first on), Phoenix Nights and blackadder as the best comedies written. 4 Please view my photos. http://www.hughesphoto.co.uk/ Little Nook Farm - Caravan Club Certificated Location in the heart of the Pennines overlooking Hebden Bridge and the Calder Valley. http://www.facebook.com/LittleNookFarm Little Nook Cottage - 2-bed self-catering cottage in the heart of the Pennines overlooking Hebden Bridge and the Calder Valley.

The Masked Poster Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 I have been watching the second series of Your Honor, which is great but I have messed up a bit. It's on Paramount+ but I only got it as I have a month trial of Sky Cinema free. But I had assumed it was all out but it's released weekly so I'm only going to see about 5 of them before I have to cancel the offer. Doh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
