frank_spencer Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Is this 'Power' or 'Powers' mate? Trying to find it. Powers is based on comics written by one of my favourite writers Brian Michael Bendis and put out by Sony. Its on my list to watch once the murican football season finishes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySanchez Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Started Quarry last night on Sky box sets. Watched the first 2 episodes, very good so far, slow burner. About an Ex-Vietnam soldier re-adjusting to life after the war. Only 1 series with 8 episodes have been made hopefully a second series is on the way. Three episodes in and enjoying it Buddy is ace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter White on Tyne Posted January 17, 2017 Site Supporter Share Posted January 17, 2017 Yeah agree. By the way i find some of these tv dramas quite hard to follow as there's too much mumbling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way i find some of these tv dramas quite hard to follow as there's too much mumbling. Not just me then. And also a lot of american movies. Need subtitles. Or age! Saw the remake of a witness for the prosecution. That was done in sepia tones and as if the great fire of London was still smouldering. Not great.

I've struggled hearing a lot of films, even with my ear trumpet. Glad it's not just me. I love subtitles.

I love subtitles. End up turning the volume up on a lot of films when there's dialogue. Then an explosion occurs and the adverts come on and it blows your ears off.

Sweep Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 I've struggled hearing a lot of films, even with my ear trumpet. Glad it's not just me. I love subtitles. My brother-in-law always has subtitles on, no matter what he is watching, it drives me mad. He's got a great TV, but refuses to invest in a decent sound bar/system. When we bought our new telly about 6 months ago, the first thing I noticed was that the picture was great, but the sound was shit. We then bought a decent sound bar and woofer to go with it, and it's a million times better. Sometimes I'll flick between the sound bar and the TV speakers, and the difference is amazing, the amount that you miss out on just relying on the TV speakers is incredible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know to be honest, I'm sure that you can spend as much as you want on one, I've got this and it's excellent: https://www.bose.co.uk/en_gb/products/speakers/home_theater/cinemate-15-home-theater-speaker-system.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underpants Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) Taboo is full of mumbling, it drives me mad. It sounds daft, and it takes a bit of getting use to, but try it with subtitles. Peaky Blinders was murder to follow; mumbling, whispering and dodgy accents. Watched it with subs and it was much more enjoyable.
