Spud17 is on fire lately...he's overtaken Sno.

Teyve got a couple f good ones out there that I hope he releases. Blinded is one of them.

Sno has virtually dropped off of the radar.

 

Mary and Mike was really good.

Manifest S2 E1 is out now

 

Just finished watching the Messiah & enjoyed it (Make sure you have subs on as 30-40% of it is in Arabic & Hebrew), hope there's a series 2 to wrap up some of the outstanding questions, but wouldn't be surprised if that was the intent and it's a 1 series show.

 

Also caught up on S2 of Top Boy (Be careful if you watch it on Netflix as they list S2 as S1 & S1 as S2 but it doesn't really matter as S2 is watchable in it's own right but there are a couple of scenes that make more sense when you know the backstory from S1 - Ironically one of them not being why Dushane was in Jamaica at the start of S2) 

 

 

FWIW I also enjoyed the Christmas Carol 2019 & latest Dracula 

 

Now watching Our Godfather... https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10095336/ 

 

 

 

Belated Happy New Year to everybody & here's to some great new TV/Movies this year (We had some crackers in 2019, including a few from the Beeb that despite being too PC where thoroughly entertaining).

Have been watching quite a few movies and series of late, so here's a quick précis: –

 

Ford versus Ferrari, which I thought was very enjoyable and have to say that I'd never heard of Ken Miles before this movie, so got to look up some facts about him – – very interesting and informative.

 

Harriet, which got better as the movie went on and was surprised to see some information on the actual events at the end of the movie. A true story.

 

Ride like a Girl, was also a bit of a slow starter for me, but overall I enjoyed the movie, again based on a true story.

 

Also watched the first three episodes of the "Christine Keeler trial" on BBC iPlayer (or was that the trial of Christine Keeler?) And am waiting for the next episode, because although I was around in those times, I had no real understanding of what was going on apart from the fact that it was a "scandal", but this series puts a different perspective on the likes of Christine Keeler and how she became involved in this.

For those of you that like the crime/police documentaries a new '24 hours in police custody' aired last night on Channel 4, this crime is in 2 parts over 2 nights, second part tonight. First one was good with no obvious forensic evidence.

[YorkshireTyke]

Busted in Bangkok documentary starts on Monday on Channel 5. Not sure of all the content, the trailer shows the tourist police.

"The Defoes, a family of sisters working as divorce lawyers, come face-to-face with their past after their estranged father returns to the fold."

 

With Nicola Walker ( good as usual ).

This one starts tonight, looks right up my street.

Lincoln Rhyme: Hunt for the Bone Collector

Former NYPD detective and forensic genius Lincoln Rhyme was at the top of his game until a serious accident at the hands of a notorious serial killer forced him out of the field. When Amelia Sachs, an intuitive young officer who has a gift for profiling, finds herself hot on the killer's trail, Rhyme finds a partner for this new game of cat and mouse. As the unlikely detective duo join forces to crack the city's most confounding cases, they must also race to take down the enigmatic killer who brought them together. Inspired by the best-selling book "The Bone Collector."

Busted ????

Have very recently subscribed to (paid for) Netflix so going through a lot of the Docos on there & stumbled across one called "Fightworld" with Frank Grillo (Famous for playing the "Hard Man" as an actor, I hadn't realised he actually is a a pretty tough guy).

 

Only watched the "Thailand: Fortunate Son" & "Israel: Masters of War" (for me Krav maga is the ultimate urban close quarter fighting style, it's the stuff they use in the movies) but I really enjoyed them both & think Frank does an amazing job of getting right in there... 

 

More Docos to follow ????

That sounds like my worst nightmare! - As I've got older I find myself less & less able to watch stuff like that... Sure sucks being a retired Serial Killer ???? 

 

Whoops... I'm sorry, I meant mild mannered bank manger (Same Same)....

Midway (2019)

Is about now in the usual places

 

 

 

 

[Orton Rd]

Mad Men about NY advertising agency in the 60's but I was not aware it is 7 series, so about 90 episodes. Some beautiful women when western ones still were, cars and accurate costumes. The lead lady January is one of the most divine creatures I have ever seen on a screen. They drink and smoke constantly, different times.

[Will27]

Louis Theroux has a new one out called Selling Sex.

 

Summary: With the sex economy booming, Theroux sensitively shadowed three women at its coalface – from

a hard-up student to a woman married for 44 years.
