Tele is crap at the moment. 

Would rather listen to music .

 

Very much so

Didn’t mind a series during first lockdown and watched line of duty but just haven’t got the time of patience now

The Crime of the Century on Sky Docs. The opioid crisis that hit the US via OxyContin and Fentanyl. Maybe it’s just me and my line of work that makes it interesting but fuck me I never realised how it came to be so bad

Spent a bit of time in Murica in the 90s in the Pharma industry. Bent fuckers over there. UK was always a vanguard of safety thankfully

Didn't they have adverts on the tele pushing all that muck?

Doing ozark again. Great series.

If it keeps up and ends well it’ll be one of the best

Yep. They also had adverts on taxis, on billboards on the side of the road, the lot. Totally fucked up system

My PT trains a guy high up who works at that HQ other in East Manchester 

Reckons some shit went down with parole officers went down when lads who shouldn't have appeared on tv had their faces shown in one of the episodes, something like that, important rules were broken

I live next door to a cop who, when it first came on, voiced an opinion along the lines of little good coming from “unveiling” the faces of the cops in charge of policing Organised Crime Groups.

As he predicted, some of those who were taking part have now had threats made against them and their family members.

I was surprised they showed the officers faces

We've been watching it, it's been pretty good. As you say, quite a few in the frame. If I was to guess, I reckon it's the husband of Katherine Kelly what done it (no doubt I'll be massively wrong)

😎 it’s actually very very good if you’ve not seen it. There’s an ace bit when the Colombians kidnap one of the characters and force feed him pure bing for 2 days solid. I’ve been looking for an all inclusive holiday like that for years 😬

I remember seeing summat about a place on an island off the coast of Columbia. All inclusive included bevy bing and brasses. Was about 2.5k for a fortnight. Bargain that  

I spent that in 4 days in puerto banus a few years ago and I was in bed for a solid 24 hours of it 👀

Just been trying to find a picture my mate sent me from either Phuket or Bangkok, it was a menu in this gentleman’s club 

Listed all the things that were available, underneath it said, if not listed please ask almost everything is allowed 

On the cocktails menu, it’s said sniff sniff he asked what that was and the lass did a sniffing up action 😁

When he got in a room with a lass, she had a quick sniff then proceeded to grease his weasel. What a place

You'd have shagged yourself to death (or tried to, with your bing willy) well before the fortnight was up 😊

God's of Snooker is excellent on BBC, even if you don't like the sport.

Spot on with the husband but didn't figure out he was a bandit
