This Falklands War thing on BBC2 now needs to be watched by as many people as possible, it's pure in your face reality of conflict, absolutely brutal stories.

Aye was a tough watch that.  A good reminder that behind all the sabre rattling and jingoism, were scared young lads doing the best they could in horiffic circumstances.

The man in the flat cap who had to headbutt someone to death at Goose Green, and the guy who took the sniper round up close, I could have listened to those characters speak for hours. Some of those people are still in a very bad place aren't they.

Is it me or is Netflix just full of crap now? Real life crime that drags out a story too long, old films and loads of WW2 docs - Hitler's Secret Sex Life was one of the latest.

Thinking of giving it up, apart from rewatching Borgen and Peep Show, can't say I've watched anything on it for ages.

Must admit that I've not watched much new stuff on there as it's been a bit shit. It's mainly been recommendations of old stuff from folk on here. Just about to start Series 4 of Better Call Saul. I just keep an eye on this thread and pick up recommendations

Just watched it. Very, very good watch

That Sherwood was a tough watch. I can’t believe so many people with that accent should be allowed to congregate in one programme. Brutal.

Anyone mentioned "twitchels" or "clap farting" yet?

Lots of it was filmed in Bolton apparently

I tend to agree about Netflix, it's certainly getting harder to justify the cost. However, I did watch a great film on there last night. Redemption of a rogue, an Irish film, a bit strange but a great dark comedy with a belting little soundtrack that I'd imagine you may like. 

Probably the wrong thread as its not a TV show, nevermind.

I thought it looked familiar in parts oddly. Now less so. Ta

I dunno in regards to your first point but my insomnia has been cured.

With Youri.

You didn't book them the trip did you, Traf?

Sadly not, but my list of WW clientele is growing slowly 😉
