"Swiss - I think kickass and piratebay are pretty much identical, even a lot of the same feeders. piratebay is usually very good for me so can't be arsed to set another thing up just for the one show. Also, I didn't attempt to download the larger file for ep1 which was around 3.5gb, I usually go for the 720hd's at around 1gb, so might go back and test the larger one. Cheers."

"I tried to watch Hijack, I don't have Apple TV so dowloaded from Piratebay but it's all over the place even though it's a genuine torrent from a reliable feed, it can happen though, so will revisit it down the track."

"Will give Hijack a go, it seems a familiar plot ''man saves plane passengers'' etc, but it's got good reviews and I like Elba."

Finished The Idol and it's an utter car crash. The writer (Sam Levinson) has very successfully put his career back a decade or two.

Just started watching that Fauda. I know it’s been mentioned on here so thought I’d try it. Not bad at all. Bit like homeland but without a nutcase bird having mood swings all over the place.

"The Idol. A Sam Levinson (Euphoria) led show. If you don't know his work he's doing everything to knock the shit out of the Woke and 'Me too' rhetoric that has led to the vanilla tv that we've been delivered over the past few years. Now, for people disgusted with Phil Schofield's dalliance with a younger man, this isn't for you, as you'll be watching Johnny Dep and Vanessa Paradis' 24 year old daughter spending most of her time naked or semi- naked, masturbating, and having sex with an older man. It's brave writing which has been slammed or heralded in equal measure.. Personally, and as a writer, I found it refreshing that sexuality can be expressed again, and sometimes in extreme ways."

"Funny enough I dont watch the antiques roadshow but that specific episode was on in the back ground at my parents and I caught the bit where he was showing some of his trainers. I have some fairly high value items but I buy them to wear, I cannot just leave them in a box as a collectable and hope their worth money in time. I get much more enjoyment out of wearing them. That being said my brother in law is in to trainers to and he bought a high collectable pair a few yrs ago for $500 designed by Virgil Abloh who used to be a designer for Louis Vuitton and then set up Off White. When he died the trainers he had that he'd kept in a box went up to being worth over $20k overnight, he still wouldn't sell them tho. Absolutely nuts."
