"Nurse yeah Walter Googins is good. Can’t wait to see comedy The Uninvited with him, Pedro Pascal, Rufus Sewell and the stunning Eva De Dominici."

I've watched first ep of Fall Out. It was okay and I'll give ep 2 a go. I didn't get on with Yellow Jackets. Found it quite slow.

"Only seen episode one, but Fallout on Prime is brilliant, especially if you like the Post Apocalyptic stuff."

Alfs 6:02 Tue Apr 9 Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls I thought Scoop was very good. Netflix. Just watch the actual cringeworthy interview. Nothing new to garner from the film. Save yourself 90 mins

Just finished Together the story of the Man City treble... have to say as sports docs go it's right up there... they all come across as pretty grounded and down to earth lads... and a few of them are pretty funny fuckers... and Pep... well... not too many that would not want to play under him... well worth a gander

I thought This Town was going to be about the forming of The Coventry Automatics and the subsequent 2 tone scene so when i realised it wasn't I had to turn it off as I was too disappointed. I will go back and give it a go though.

"This Town anyone?? Thought it was pretty decent... especially if you was into the Skinhead, Rudie, 2 Tone scene... oh and chuck in a load of Zulu's as well.... oh and what a soundtrack... absolutely superb..."

Ripley is excellent . Great acting and mise en scene . It’s true to Highsmith’s first book of the Ripliad. Although the story line follows closely as the great 90s film The Talented Mr Ripley it goes into more detail and is considerably darker.

"Swiss, yes, come to think of it. Burton with a bit of Tom Hardy. A good pick for the part. Every week that show gets better and better, particularly as Jarvis picks up more Japanese."

"I never really paid it much attention before but I’ve been watching ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ and it’s really good. Great characters, brilliant actors and really funny. An easy watch too as it’s around 25 minutes per episode."

"Finished The Old Man last night. Don't understand the problem with the flashbacks, as they go a long way to explaining why the story has got to where it is and don't really see how they could have done so without them without a ridiculous amount of exposition being involved. A solid 8/10 from me, and really looking forward to series 2."
