Futtocks Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 I need more episodes of The League of Gentlemen. Three wasn't enough, but at least we now know who's taken over as the purveyor of "the special stuff".

Wiltshire Rhino Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 (edited) Peaky Blinders is an absolutely brilliant TV show! Only problem is the next series wont be until 2019.

jacksy Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Not TV but movie related. Star Wars TLJ is awful. Rugby Union the only game in the world were the spectators handle the ball more than the players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot of dullness in the first forty minutes but once it hits its stride I think it's not bad at all. Nowhere near as good as Rogue One but then no other SW film is either.

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.

I love Star Wars and all things sci fi/fantasy related. However, this movie just didnt do anything for me. Maybe after Rogue One i was expecting something more.

Vernon Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Great thing about catch up TV, box sets, Netflix, Amazon Prime means you aren't tied to a schedule - so some good things I've watched recently include Motherland, Life in Pieces, Two Doors Down, Hello Ladies - and some Seinfeld !

Bedford Roughyed Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 (edited) I think I might be finally ditching Sky. I mostly watch BBC, C4 etc. Don't have movies or sports. The main reason I kept Sky was for Game Of Thrones, and thats not back till 2019. iPlayer + Netflix + Youtube + Amazon Prime should see me right.

Shadow Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 (edited) Back on track Last night I started watching The Indian Detective on Netflix. Sadly the large portion of Toulouse Sausages and potatoes with 2 glasses of Rioja meant I will need to start again but what I was awake for looked quite entertaining.

jacksy Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Anyone got around to watching Mindhunters yet? It is a marvellous series and i highly recommend it. I will also add that Vikings is well worth a watch too. Rugby Union the only game in the world were the spectators handle the ball more than the players.

Trojan Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Meanwhile BBC4 offered a double helping of the Two Ronnies. Nuff said. But followed it with the history of Fairytale in New York. With Kirsty. very interesting. Shane McGowan was his usual obnoxious self, but Kirsty was wonderful as usual. “Few thought him even a starter.There were many who thought themselves smarter.

They've definitely left us wanting more though, rather than lamenting that they've run out of ideas. It was a rare and beautiful thing to go on Twitter after each LoG episode this week and see it full of praise and appreciation for something good, rather than the usual cacophony of moaning.

We've just watched two episodes and it's quite entertaining, Death in Paradise style detective stuff with more humour. It does help that the lead Indian actress is very easy on the eye...
