Available with subs on RARBG:- The Rescue - 2021 - IMDB Rating 8.3 A chronicle of the enthralling, against-all-odds story that transfixed the world in 2018: the daring rescue of twelve boys and their coach from deep inside a flooded cave in Northern Thailand. Haven't watched it myself yet, but interesting subject and a 8.3 rating it should be quite watchable ???? Just finished watching this doc, excellent coverage and very gripping. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The Rescue" Interesting point that in the documentary was quickly passed over. After all the options had been considered, the British team decided the only way to get the boys out was to drug and dive them out, so they wouldn't panic and drown, someone casually mentioned to the team leader that this had better work or they would be in serious trouble with the Thai judiciary. The response from the team leader was that secret arrangements were in place that if things did go wrong the team would be whisked off to somewhere safe and out of the country ASAP. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutt Daeng Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 I've watched the first 3 episodes of season 1 of Mocro Mafia, which is a Dutch crime drama, set in Amsterdam. Seems pretty good so far. Worth a look IMHO. I got it from 1337x a while ago and it was on "the bay" as well at the time. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8810204/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If something isn't available for download, like Manayek, like mentioned above, it's a small price to pay. I like a lot of foreign shows that have subs and these aren't always available on torrent websites. Watched the first two episodes of Manayek on SBS and no commercials appeared at all. I am not using the standard SBS app though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Dwyer Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Amelie (2001) 8.3 imdb rating. Have just been recommended this by a friend, it is a beautiful comedy romance, it’s in French but English subs are available on fmovies anyway. Well worth a watch imho. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0211915/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started to watch chaos / catacombs / katacombs last night and I got to agree with giddy, when the show isn’t engaging then the size and colour of the subs, coupled with the low bitrate / blocky artifacts are a bit off putting. It’s still one of the only places to see some pretty special shows tho’ Is anyone into The Expanse ?

The Crime didn't rate that highly in the UK at the time. Sky and HBO drama Landscapers stars Oscar winner Olivia Colman and David Thewlis as Susan and Chris Edwards respectively – a real-life couple accused of double murder. A very poor show.

The prosecution barrister relates damning evidence to him in the closing speech. Hero decides he wants to tell his own story, rather than the version that his barrister decided was in his best interests, and exercises his right to present his own closing speech.

Plus the Simpsons: So much more than Braveheart. Scots might know most of the scads of movies (from very old to more recent) mentioned in this show, but I only knew a small number. Based on the clips, many looked very intriguing and I don't think you need to be a Scotsman to like them.

SpaceKadet Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 "Invasion", an Sci-Fi series just finished season 1. Not that great, IMO. The Japanese story line was the best. "The Wheel of Time" is halfway through the season 1. Quite good fantasy series. The original books span 12 titles, each over 600 pages, I'm told. How they're gonna translate that to a working story in a TV series is a mystery... Nevertheless, thus far it's enjoyable to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
