  • Just finished the second season of Narcos.... it’s really very good.

    Totally convinced I’m now fluent in Spanish :biggrin:

    Just finished the second bag of natchos :lol:
  • Narcos Mexico is good aswell 👍🏻

    PLF, for the benefit of those of us that are of a certain age ;) , could you explain what "animal crossing on switch means"?
  • :puzzled: me to
  • Switch is a games console, a bit like a cross between the old style portable "Gameboy" ones and a more traditional one that you plug into the TV.

    Animal Crossing is the name of a game (or series of games, as there are more than one versions).

    That's incredible :nonono:
  • Ricky Gervais's Afterlife is so funny, so sad, so painful and so true.

    The Elton John bio-pic "Rocketman" is a bit graphic but I could see it as a midnight double bill at the Scala with "Bohemian Rhapsody"
  • Normal People on BBC was excellent, I’d recommend.
  • I read the book last year which was excellent, will catch up with the BBC version soon.
  • Just finished watching Normal people for the second time and the book arrived today as my wife and I can’t stop talking about it, it was amazing!

    Tried first episode of Gangs of London and all the unnecessary graphic violence made me feel queasy.

    Maybe I’m finally maturing.
  • Was craving a footie fix so chose to binge watch “Sunderland till I die”, appreciated it more the second time around, the series vividly displays the range of emotions experienced in supporting and owning a football club, the community connection, passion, hope and at the end of the day, bitter despair and disappointment.

    After two successive relegations and then to heartbreakingly lose the play off final in the 92nd minute, one of the featured fans looking at the opposing celebrating fans, emotionally says “why is it never us”

    Football fans around the world will surely relate to it and those who do not follow a team will surely be thinking why so many people choose to expose themselves to such a range of emotions.

    Sunderland were still in the Premiership when the program would have been initially conceived and surely they could not have envisioned covering such an emotional ride.

    I actually think the program turned into a really interesting study into this crazy hobby/interest/obsession we all share

    Has nobody yet mentioned "Mafia Only Kills in Summer" on Channel 4? In Italian with subtitles of course.
    Brilliant black comedy story-telling based on true events about the "cosa nostra" in Sicily in the '70s, seen through the eyes of a young boy and his family.

    And it's free to watch. :biggrin: ;)
  • Another :thumbsup: for ozark.
    Only started watching it a few weeks ago and i'm already on series 3.
    Just don't call me a redneck. :run:
  • I’m in series 2 of ozark it’s good 👍🏻

    Will have to give it another go. I got so bored in season 2.

    I also quite enjoyed the last kingdom.
  • The third season is very different to seasons 1 & 2, which are slow and gradually build up towards the latter stages of the season, but I really didn’t mind as I enjoyed it.

    The third is very much straight in at gear 4.
  • Justified on prime is ok. I’m into series 6 the final season. Lots of really stupid rednecks lol
  • Uhtred son of Uhtred
  • Finished latest season of last kingdom read the books as well and they are still releasing news ones so hopefully a few more seasons to come 😁
  • Just watched "The Godfather" again ..................... sigh, what a film


  • Maybe a bit of a tangent but I have mentioned before my wife’s families devotion to Sunderland, this is an impressive array at her Uncle Johns funeral, “Sunderland till I die”
