Lord of the rings, The Goonies, Back to the future, Labyrinth and Forest Gump are my favourite films ;ok

SuzanneClaret

Mrs AKA has a point ;whistle

SuzanneClaret

I love the Goonies Hamstew...

SuzanneClaret

There's not a lot on current TV programmes I like other than live football. I the Great British Bake-Off, DIY SOS The Big Build and a couple of terrible US cop shows.

Is True Detective on Sky Atlantic?

SuzanneClaret

Oh, that doesn't come with my Virgin package ;puzzled

SuzanneClaret

I can wait until it falls over into one of the other Sky channels, give me something to look forward too.

Couldn't get on with True Detectives.

Liked the first couple of episodes - excellent script, superb acting and good filming. But then the deep-rooted misogyny put me off. And the 2 characters were just deeply unlikeable.

Aka, heard about brad pitt too, will be interesting in second season what they do as the actors made it what it is IMO

Hantshammer

If anyone missed Spooks when it was on some years back i'd recommend it on DVD-edge of the seat stuff

MrsGrey

;weep Same thing, Hants - started off watching it and enjoyed the first 5 or 6 episodes but then lost patience/interest. Maybe my mistake was trying to watch 2 or 3 episodes at a time instead of one per week - it's flaws are more obvious.

Last things I watched and was able to enjoy the whole thing was The Wire (all 5 series, but I did have to take a short break between 3 and 4 as it was a bit harrowing) and West Wing (I know, it's old, but I didn't get to see t 1st time round).

SuzanneClaret

Oh we love The West Wing ;wahoo

Hamstew

Ooh ooh and the first ninja turtles film ;wahoo
