am getting sick of that programme " THE NEWS"  its nothing but putin - strikes - covid- illegal migrants- fuel/ food shortages - the cost of living - etc etc - why not feature some good news like my auntie Maureen finding a tenner in a handbag she hasn't used since our dereks wedding - cmon news reporters- lighten up a bit 

I rarely watch it . Do they not do that funny news story bit at the end now ? You know like the talking dog or the man who went on a bus trip to Rome and ended up being made Pope ?

Watched the final episode of Years and Years tonight. Then straight away watched the news. I wasn't 100% sure that it wasn't the same programme.

I watched the last two episodes in a row via iPlayer. The sense of attention to detail comes across, just as it did in the previous series. Not just in the little things you see in passing (the Samuel

Even if you haven't got Sky, you can watch the Women Who Rock series on Sky Arts on Freeview. It's brilliant.

Mavis Staples is 83, going on forty.

Chaka Khan was hooked on drugs for a few years, then went alcoholic and overweight. At 69, she looks fantastic and still kicks ass.

Nona Hendryx was always a bit scary, but it turns out she is a really nice person.

Footage of Janis Joplin, Sister Rosetta and Mahalia Jackson.

Susanna Hoffs is still pretty.

What's not to like?😃

Next week, it's the 1970's.

Saw the episode 1 of the new series of the Mandalorian.

A bit Marvel comics for me.

Not sure if the rest of the series will be the same.

 

After Andor, it had a very high bar, and missed quite a way.

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!

Unfortunately, I watched the latest Elvis film on Sky (sadly, for once they cut-out ads). What a mess of a film on speed - the use of hip hop ‘music’ early on and a story/music all over the place both historically and in direction by Baz Luhrmann!  Austin Butler is quite good as Elvis and a prosthetic Tom Hanks as Colonel Parker should have known better.  
Watched it through more in hope….

The 1979 Kurt Russell film is better, imo.

You watched a Baz Luhrman flick and expected a dead-straight historical account without anachronisms and other playful nonsense?

I’m very much enjoying the final series of Endeavour

I thought the last few series have been poor. But now they have returned to the Blenheim Vale conspiracy it's a must watch.

I think they missed a trick by not doing more episodes on this subject personally.

Rugby Union the only game in the world were the spectators handle the ball more than the players.

Totally agree , some episodes were weak or almost parodies . These two have been very strong . I rewatch the earlier series and they’re particularly  good to.

I have just finished watching “Betrayed : Surviving An American Concentration Came” on PBS.  It was horrendous how Japanese Americans were treated during WWII in the land of the free. A very sad documentary but well worth a watch.

If you're a trekkie 

Season 3 of Picard has been great so far.

Rugby Union the only game in the world were the spectators handle the ball more than the players.
