Origin

 

So if you are into Sci-Fi this came out today from a group called Youtube originals --all 10 episodes out on net...... Basically everyone gets put to sleep until they reach their new planet...... but something gets on board and starts the killing.....

 

From the producers of The Crown & producers of Lost comes Origin, a chilling new original series that follows a group of troubled passengers as they wake up on a damaged spaceship abandoned in deep space. Each having left behind a dark past in search of a fresh start on a newly colonized

I am sad but I am nearly at the end of watching all the series of The Bill, from the first to the last and halfway through Hill street blues, then I have all the Star treks after Kirk. 90 percent of the 'big bang'

Pm sent.

 

I am searching for some series of the UK tv series The Bill.  Have many of the series on my hard drives but missing a few seasons.

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction where I can get the series I am missing please?

Tv series - Dirty John

 

Haven't seen or heard anything about this one.
But being an Eric Bana fan, I'll give episode 1 a crack.

Summary: Debra's seemingly perfect life is disrupted as she falls for a handsome doctor who sweeps her into a whirlwind romance.   But her handsome new beau pulls Debra into a sinister game of psychological manipulation.

I think his best was "The Time Traveler's Wife "

If anyone has not seen it----try to grab a copy (2009) They use to have the whole movie on Youtube

Chaos TV has them all and stuff going back to the 50s..........

Thanks for the information. However with my internet connection I have difficulty maintaining my ratio there.

Looking for another option. Perhaps someone has the series on a hard drive?

Car Crash Who's Lying  ........................Doco  BBC3 online last night

 

This documentary is a compelling single narrative documentary that tells the story of an unlikely group of friends in a close-knit community in Hampshire, who find themselves at the centre of an intense police investigation.
With access to never-before-seen police bodycam footage of the crash site, viewers are taken directly into the heart of the aftermath of a catastrophic collision between a car and a tree on a dark country road. The immediate impact of the crash leaves a young man stumbling, dazed but unharmed, from the car. Telling the on-duty sergeant he was the driver. As more details emerge and the young man, Dannylee, comes under police scrutiny, it's clear the events of that night have changed their friendship group forever. 'We trusted Danny, we never thought he could do anything like that.'

Emotional interviews from the family members and friends of the gravely injured teens highlight what they believe happened that night, but the only ones who know the true story are those who were in the in car. As their stories change, conflicting testimonies emerge and rumours spread

You don't have to pay back what you take from those aged programs --- they know not so many people will be accessing them---you just have to run it for 72 hours...

 

This is a full series pack, if you download it then please seed for at least 3 Days (72  hours)  or  above ratio 1:1
The 24th series of The Bill, a British television drama, was the antepenultimate series of the programme.

IMO, he's a bit like Tom Hardy, never bad.

 

I loved him in Chopper.

Just got into a very interesting documentary called The Cleaners.

 

About the people the social media companies employ to edit....basically set the editorial policy....of Facebook, google etc....they decide what stays on the net or goes.

 

Pretty disturbing when you realise they're functioning like the editors of a newspaper like NYT.

 

When they are no more qualified than a call centre employee.

The Kominsky Method 

 

Two episodes in and this ones a bit of a charmer.
All 8 episodes available.

Michael Douglas is still a real good looking rooster at 74.

Summary: An aging actor, who long ago enjoyed a brush with fame, makes his living as an acting coach.
