Got a mate who came back earlier. Just got his pension approved. It took 4 months and 1 week. He has been out of Australia for 6 years. Will call soon to see if he has to do the 2 years.

That processing time is unacceptable.

Be surprised if he doesn't have to do the two years.

Well Trend Setters

That's it for round 2.

Ozzydom goes back to back by virtue of the margin and the Lindt for this week.

Until next time.

One of the most annoying/irritating TV series I've ever watched. The main character is a spineless jellyfish and all the other actors are equally annoying. I did watch to the end (only 4 episodes) in the hope someone (preferably all) was going to get blown away.

You did better than me.

I lasted 20 minutes into the fist episode.

Patria

Patria tells the story of two families divided by the violent conflict of the separatist terrorism of ETA over the Spanish Basque Country. After 3 decades of murder, terrorism, political fanaticism, will the community be able to forgive?

Coma

A family man's devotion is tested as his neighborhood falls prey to the torment inflicted by a gang of teenagers commanded by a menacing 17-year-old ringleader.

This place sells stuff from Australia.

The best pies I've tasted here I ordered from Tinnies.

Great win for the Swans in hostile territory. Great to see Collingwood go down.

Agree Rip.

The final score flattered Collingwood as well.

Accused: The Hampstead Paedophile Hoax 

In 2015, two children accused parents and teachers of running a baby-eating satanic cult in a Hampstead school. The tale gripped conspiracy theorists around the world.

Season 4 of Forensics: The Real CSI has started to drop.

This is an excellent show if you haven't seen it.

Follow West Midlands Police as they use real life forensic science to catch criminals.

Didn't Liam Neeson just play a hitman with dementia?

I'm not sure.

I haven't really watched must of his latest stuff though.

This one looks good.

Out next week.

When a contract killer has a rapidly evolving form of dementia, he is offered an opportunity to redeem himself by saving the life of the adult son with whom he had been estranged.

The Great American Heist

I've been waiting ages for this one.

Take an inside look at one of the largest cash and jewel heists in American history … the 1978 Lufthansa Robbery. Nearly $6 million stolen from the Lufthansa Cargo Terminal at JFK Airport in New York. This theft was suspected to be led by Lucchese crime associate, Jimmy Burke and the rest of his crew.

Follow the crime, the murders, and the investigation that followed and find out who got pinched, who got whacked, and who walked away unscathed.

The Titan Sub Disaster: Minute by Minute

This was excellent.

Two parts.

The search for the missing Titan submersible off the coast of Newfoundland and Labrador in June 2023 ended in tragedy, and there are lingering questions about what exactly happened.

Sarah Everard: The Search for Justice

Documentary recounting the kidnapping and murder of Sarah Everard and the search for her killer, serving Metropolitan Police Officer, Wayne Couzens. Also addresses public reaction to the murder and the impact on the police force.

Absolutely mind boggling.

Catching a Killer: The Murder of Emma Caldwell

The murder of a young woman. A botched police inquiry. And the BBC Disclosure investigation that helped catch the killer. As the man who murdered Emma Caldwell is finally brought to justice, reporter Samantha Poling reveals a catalogue of missed opportunities by police to catch him.

The inside story on how this left Emma's murder unsolved for nearly two decades, while a dangerous predator was free to continue raping and assaulting other women.

Thought this was excellent.

The Push: Murder on the Cliff

Scotland's top legal team tackle the death of Leeds-based lawyer Fawziyah Javed, who fell from the top of Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh, dying alone with no witnesses far from home. Hours later, Kashif Anwar, her husband of nine months was arrested for murder. Exclusive access to the murder trial at Edinburgh's High Court finds the jury being shown CCTV of the couple walking arm-in-arm, and a smiling selfie taken minutes before Fawziyah falls. What dark secrets could lie behind their outward happiness?

Testimony of the person to find Fawziyah after she fell from Arthur's Seat. The jury discovers that at this point Fawziyah was still alive and gave a dying declaration of what had just happened. But it's still a case without forensics - and two totally different versions of what occurred.
