Have just finished the complete series and thought it was great and although I did post a little bit about my time in the Sahara, this brought back a couple of other memories.....   We brewe

Sarangoon Road Oz TV series made in 2013 about an Ozzie private detective working in 1960s Singapore. I'm quite enjoying it. (on HBOGo)

Any theories about who the "Brian" character is based on?  I have 2.

I have 2 also. Peter Green or Mick Jones.

 

Back in the 80's some mates were telling me about Peter Green (Fleetwood Mac) was spotted on a bus in London constantly ringing the bell because he'd become a fruit loop (nutter). I thought at the time it was maybe just a bad trip he'd had. But I just checked on Wiki and Greenie did actually get diagnosed as a schizophrenic and spent time in 'hospitals'.

Hey, we overlapped!  I think it's Peter Green or Sid Barret (Pink Floyd, I think it was originally his band).  The story I heard, from a US promoter, was that Green fell in with some cult and they turned him into a vegetable.  Said promoter (a gruff, aggressive sort) wanted to "talk" to him (meaning try to twist his arm into making a comeback), and when he tracked him down he found him sweeping the floor at the ashram -- not too different from the scene in "Still Crazy."

I didn't know Mick Jones flipped.  I saw a documentary recently and I got the impression it was Strummer that was going over the edge, thanks to that manager they had.

There was a US guy named Roy Buchanan, another outstanding guitar player who flipped, I think he was killed by some redneck cop down in Dixie.  Both he and Green wrote songs about visions and voices of the demons, The Green Manalishi is not a poetic reference.

I have a question for the very helpful folk here on this thread, who have helped quite a few times in the past, and I'm looking for help again!!

 

It's a doco about a survey/expedition in Antarctica, where they drill through the ice using some sort of heat/steam generator...........that's all I know about it because I watch the BBC World News and in between the breaks in the news there is often a clip which looks like it is promoting this documentary regarding the Antarctica, and includes a BBC reporter or scientist. and so on.

 

The commentator/scientist on this clip is shown in front of an aeroplane which has landed on the ice, and he also comments on the fact that he didn't expect to be spending five weeks camping on the ice! But can I find it anywhere, no chance, and despite a few similar documentary type things, I just have not found this one, so I'm reaching out to those folk here to see if they can help.

 

I have looked on the BBC World News website but I can't locate it – – any suggestions please folks?

 

I can tell you that it's not part of the/a David Attenborough series, and I think it was made just recently.

If nobody can find it then this 16 minute video is an eye opener.

Many thanks for taking the time to look for me, IB2, but this isn't the one, however I will have a look at it later on; much appreciated.

A new release from MCU, "Eternals", just hit the public trackers. Get it if you into that.... Available from your usual sources.

If using Windows the only all-around capture software I know of is Internet Download Manager.  It would be nice to have one that runs on native Linux.

I use FireDM on linux. Works fine for me.

In the theaters the newest Spiderman.  It took half of the movie and one major character death to wash the stench of Disney off of the film.  After that it excelled. Top notch actors in the movie but Willem Dafoe stole the show imo.

 

At home we just finished The Witcher and were sad to reach the end.  Now we're into the third season of Dark which is one of the best sci-fi efforts I've ever seen.
