"Nags - Yea, as I have said a few times now I haven't seen anything really top draw for a long time now, probably the last season of Gomorrah, I thought The Offer was decent, as was Dahmer, and the new The White Lotus is a good yarn, although not as good as the first one."

Five Days at Memorial is a really good miniseries worth watching. It's about the events at a New Orleans hospital during hurricane Katrina.

"Pentonville 3:56 Wed Nov 16 I watched the first episode of that and gave up on it. If he had stuck to, 'there were probably reasonably advanced civilisations around a bit earlier than we thought', then it would have been OK. But that wouldn't have been very controversial or exciting or easy to sell to a TV company or book publisher. So he's claiming these societies were VERY advanced, to the extent of being world-wide civilisations. So we get lots of the usual conspiracy theory arguments like, 'nobody can explain, so it must mean this', 'scientists have been unable to prove', 'archaeologists can't agree' - that sort of Chariot of the Gods stuff. He's a plausible little scamp, though."

Ancient Apocolypse on Netflix about the possibility of advanced civilisations existing before previously taught. A cataclysmic event around world wiped existence of it all out except for various landmarks around the world. Compelling and fascinating and certainly makes you think it possible.

"Northern Sold 2:47 Mon Nov 14 Haven't seen the third part yet but I know re Matthaeus and Waddle. Seen Lothar on a few things and always comes across as a nice guy, along with Klinsmann, and what a player Lothar was, absolutely terrific, which shows how well Gazza played in the Semi. Like you felt for the Yugoslavs and really sad re their old manager. What a tournament Cameroon had when you consider they really were no more than parks footballers."
