The book (Point of Impact) was written by Stephen Hunter and comes from a series in which each book is connected by members of the same family at different points in time. They are all really good. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_of_Impact 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give Vince Flynn a try. He is good too and has a movie coming out based on "American Assassin". That is my favorite book by him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilsonandson Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Watched Hunting Hitler season 2. Couldn't get enough so watched World War 1 in colour by Nat Geo. Absolutely brilliant.

Lannig Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Sounds like something quite worth watching, thanks. I'll look around, see if I can find it. I really like UK series anyway. Broadchurch really was the best series I've watched in the past few years (watched with original soundtrack of course, I hate dubbed movies/series) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tukkytuktuk Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Just watched Patriots Day 2016. Very powerful and moving. Words cannot describe what I just experienced. This should get the oscars. A movie that will take a while to get out of my head. 7.6 Imdb. No, 10.0 is what I give this. 3 years after the real event this is as close you get to being there on that day. A day that shook the world and an event that is tragically all to common in the news after. How much longer will terrorism be in our world? We pray for peace. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has to be the best WW1 documentary of all but be sure to watch the 1964 version and not later efforts using the same name: The Great War (TV Mini-Series 1964– ) - IMDb Edited February 8, 2017 by evadgib 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilsonandson Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Thanks everyone for your advice on WWI and WW2 documentaries to watch. Just watched the curse of oak island season 4 episode 13. They've found the money pit at last but you'll have to wait until next weeks episode to see more.Anyone watching the grand tour still. I got to episode 4 then got bored. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giddyup Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 What's going on with these TV series? Homeland hasn't had a new episode since end of January. There have been no new episodes of ICE for ages. Spring Tide I have only been able to find episodes 1 and 2. Disappointing when you start to enjoy a series only to see it disappear, at least for me, maybe someone can find the new episodes of the three I mentioned?

Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect "Returns Monday, April 10 10/9" (Other than the last episode or 2 of last season) Michael McKean has been great throughout this series. Rhea Seahorn is odd casting - she strikes me as a gay woman and also exudes no sexuality. Adequate but nothing special.
