"Just finished The Killing liked it a lot but not really the last season as much. Breaking Bad, Homeland done Was going to do Luther or The Wire next - can you tell me which one is best of the two?"

Started Blue Lights and yes it's good. Very raw. Would prefer shorter episodes though rather than a full hour and despite it being good I don't think it will match Line of Duty, fwiw.

Really good viewing, and I know not much about Ice Hockey. Those guys are completely mental.
Give 'Slapshot' a watch....comedy gold.

It's one of those films where you sit and think 'I'm going to give this shit ten minutes' and then get really surprised at how good it is.

If you HAVE already seen it and thought it was for 'manchildren' I guess I'm guilty as charged.
Another one for you Chim, if you haven't already seen it.
Dragged Across Concrete, with both Vaughan and the director of BICB99, Craig Zahler. Also Mel Gibson.

Yes, that's the one. It reminded of the job players like Billy & Julian did for us, sorting out the opposition bullies

Cheers Miike - pretty sure I’ve seen that one, another good one! The enforcers are the biggest nutters, perhaps in all mainstream sports.

Lowlife, a good documentary worth watching is called 'Ice Guardians' from 2016. It used to be on Netflix (might still be there)

I just finished 'The English' (Emily Blunt). Pretty enjoyable on the whole, nicely filmed...it felt a bit like watching an old 60's Panavision western.

After finishing a rewatch of Game Of Thrones, I’ve just finished the first season of Slow Horses. Not bad.

Apologies. I know it's not a box set but didn't know where else to put this. Recent You Tube documentary tribute to the late Dylan Tombides.

Yes Tulsa King, of course. I'm nearly as old as Stallone and Delaney so such lapses are to be expected!

Dana Delaney is 68 (so 66 maybe when it was filmed) and still has a surprisingly nice arse and remarkably good legs.
Tulsa King?

Yep, decent isn't it.

You do have to wonder about someone who admits something is pretty crap but then still maintains it's 'worth a watch', as if it's 30 minutes long and not the best part of 10 hours. mental.

Manuel,

I wonder at someone who is a thick cսnt and doesn't understand English. Where did I say it was crap? I just said drawn out which you can say about just about all serioes these days. 

Any way you are not in a position to critises anyone after what one of the mods told me about you..haha
