"It's all opinion, Nurse. Just passing on own experience of the women. She was incredible as Miss Julie, though she was pretty much born to play that role."

"I spent three months working with Kelly Reilly in 2001. She was lovely, funny, wild after a few beers, and extremely talented. I fell a little bit in love with her, as did every man who met her, and quite a few women. It was clear that she was going places as the theatre was regularly visited by casting directors, major theatre directors and tv execs, who often whisked her off for a late supper at Joe Allen's. A year or so later she played the title role in Miss Julie at the Donmar, and the rest is history."

"o1bb Hmm. Maybe. I loathed her in True Detective, Sherlock Holmes and anything else I've seen her in. Same shtick every time in every role. Walks into a room, or approaches another actor slightly sideways on. I think she thinks it's 'slinky', whereas I think she looks constipated. Turns her head sideways and does that slow up and down movement with her head, contorting her face/mouth like she's just suffered a stroke. And frankly, she cannot act. The only actress who annoys me more is Shirley Henderson."

Cheers Swiss. I doubt there's currently anything out there in TV land that could tie Walter White's shoelaces. Let alone go toe to toe with Heisenberg.!

RBshorty 2:40 Fri Aug 19 Yellowstone is the new High Chaparral but instead of the beautiful Victoria we have some pale freckle ginger bitch. It’s just fucking average but some people are promoting it like it’s Breaking Bad.

Ms Reilly does unfortunately have the look of a person constantly sucking on a lemon. However there are much worse performers out there stealing a very good living. As for Yellowstone. Sat and watched the first episode a few years back. And it seemed to be a modern day Bonanza. I like Taylor Sheridan. But I wait until it's on Freeview. I won't be subbing for it.

"Oh, and I want to watch Yellowstone, but I absolutely loathe Kelly Reiily. Ruins everything she's in. I almost gave up on True Detective 2 because she was in it. And that was after gritting my teeth through Woody Harrelson in the first series. Hope series 3 has no emetic actors in it."

"New episodes of Yellowstone season 5 will begin airing on November 13, 2022. Showrunner Taylor Sheridan also spilled to Variety that there will be 14 new episodes instead of the usual 10."

"Finished The Night Of, it is decent, some good characters, and is a good 'who done it' plot line. Found it dragged a bit though but it just about held my interest, thought the ending was a bit lame. if you've got 9 hours it's a decent shout."
