    I spent an evening watching the Danish film Land Of Mine which was nominated for an Oscar in the Foreign Language Film category. Rather good too.

    *** SPOILER ALERT ***
    The film features 1.5 million land mines. Some of them go off. Some people get hurt.

    Ade, a light hearted family comedy then? ;hmm

    Anybody seeking respite from #transferwindowmayhem in the new GBBO?

    Any predictions for who will win?

    I've recorded the new GBBO but have yet to watch any.... Is it any good?

    It's much the same as before, it seems to me. (I watched it without adverts.) I think the new Mel'n'Sue will soon find their mojo/own style.

    I think the first couple of episodes in each series are the least enjoyable because there are so many bakers - the thing I enjoy most is the 'characters' and their trials and tribulations, which is all bit superficial at the start when each baker gets about a minute of coverage. So I wasn't madly enthusiastic, but that's par for the course ;hmm

    ;ok We'll give it a go. Anybody put a rouge ingredient in a chocolate cake yet?

    Yeold NO. I repeat NO. Please give me another couple of weeks! (Hopefully less, if so I'll let you know!)

    Some great episodes but rubbish finale. I predicted two of the main things to my friend, including the ending before we even started watching. Feature-length borefest. I want to fight the writers.

    Maybe a separate thread for those who have finished watching?

    can you slow coaches please catch up. Well actually we do have to wait another 18 months for the final series so you got some time I guess.

    few films I seen recently:-

    Hitmans Bodyguard - Great film
    Dark Tower - Really disappointed with this film
    Atomic Blonde - Average film
    Dunkirk - Good film
    America Made - Good film

    Traded in your season ticket at West Ham for a season ticket at Odeon Yeold?? ;lol

    I've heard good reports from many about Dunkirk, will try and catch it when it makes it to the small screen. I've a mate who was desperately looking forward to Dark Tower as he loved the books - seems he may be disappointed.

    I can't add much to this page as I've not been watching much new TV or film lately.

    I did get a nine letter on countdown the other night though ;wahoo

    Despite a big effort on my part not to, I'm quite liking the new GBBO.

    I hated GBBO before. Now I really like it. But I didn't like the old lot.

    I'm up to season four of Game of Thrones. During the fight in Episode 8 "The Mountain and the Viper" did anyone else think......
    Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.

    Kingsman 2 was awesome

    Is it better than the first one?

    I felt the first one never really made up its mind what it wanted to be.
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    ummmm hard to say equally as good not sure if better
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    I fell asleep during the first one so won't be bothering with the second.

    Cheers. Will probably give it a miss then.

    I thought the first one was really disappointing.

    Been watching Strike, BBC adaptation of the detective novels written by J.K. Rowling, under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith.

    They are very good.

    Brilliant especially the send up of MOTD. Lots of talking and spouting jargon without actually saying anything of any value except for one person.
