bgoefc Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 apple Tree Yard was very good. Well worth the watch. Unforgotten (second series) was equally as good. Fortitude getting weirder the further in we get. Enjoyed both too. Not usually drawn to this sort of TV. Quote
DazBob Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 But it had the twist at the very end. But it wasn't even a twist. It made out that it was a twist, but then it turned out not to be a twist as she didn't actually mean it. Fucking rubbish, it pissed me off. Quote

It made out that it was a twist, but then it turned out not to be a twist as she didn't actually mean it. Fucking rubbish, it pissed me off. That's what I liked about it. Sometimes a show that doesn't have choreographed blamming, or unrealistic story lines etc makes a pleasant change. The twist by the way; did she not mean it; or did she use him? Quote
DazBob Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 I figured she didn't mean it. Would've been better if she had and we'd been hoodwinked all along. Quote
bgoefc Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 (edited) That's what I liked about it. Sometimes a show that doesn't have choreographed blamming, or unrealistic story lines etc makes a pleasant change. The twist by the way; did she not mean it; or did she use him? My read is she only realised in that last scene (on the prison visit) that he did indeed suffer from the personality disorder that she thought he only used in his defence to get a manslaughter verdict instead of murder. He actually thought she really did mean it when she asked him to "smash the face in" of the rapist, in a jokey sort of way when they were in bed. Edited February 13, 2017 by bgoefc Quote

He actually thought she really did mean it when she asked him to "smash the face in" of the rapist, in a jokey sort of way when they were in bed. That's how I read it too; although we discussed the possibility that she might have realised he was a butter and utilised it for her benefit. In the end that's why it was good; threw up legal implications etc. Anyhow the rapist deserved it. Quote

Marc505 Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Taboo getting good. Why is homeland not on tonight? Been looking into that, apparently it had a week's break in US for Superbowl so we have to have the same too. Odd. Quote
Casino Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Not watched taboo for weeks Any early thoughts on SS GB I've got it recording Quote
Spider Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Not watched taboo for weeks Any early thoughts on SS GB I've got it recording main bloke's voice is getting on my tits Quote
bgoefc Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Taboo getting good. Why is homeland not on tonight? Glad I stuck with Taboo now, though its been a test. Black sails series 3 has been disappointing so far though. Watched the first episode of the new Roots on iplayer tonight. Very good. Quote
embankment Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Taboo getting good. Love this. Pity its the last one next Saturday. Thought tonights episode was abit long winded. The shit will definately hit the fan next week. My misses just said , that was unusual he didn't disembowel anyone tonight. Quote
Matt Lofthouse Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Half way through the first series of narcos, first couple of episodes were great but since then it's not gripping me. Persevere or fuck it off? Quote
birch-chorley Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Started the man in the high castle 4 in so far, good but not quite gripping yet Anyone into it? Quote
Alf Hartigan Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 Half way through the first series of narcos, first couple of episodes were great but since then it's not gripping me. Persevere or fuck it off? Percy Veer and if you think the second series starts slowly, then Percy Veer again Quote
Traf Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 Started the man in the high castle 4 in so far, good but not quite gripping yet Anyone into it? I enjoyed it, but it wasn't gripping. Could easily have been condensed into half. Quote
Sweep Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 Started the man in the high castle 4 in so far, good but not quite gripping yet Anyone into it? I enjoyed it (first series) and am just about to start watching the second series this week - as pointed out by Traf, the first series could have been condensed into a couple of fewer episodes Quote
