People at the time couldn’t understand it, but it taught him that skin colour really didn’t matter it, and he then learned of my mama culture, and he then became bang into ska and reggae, and even now he still has time to jump on his lambretta to a meet, and from that I’ve embraced both cultures. It’s a shame to see people tarred with the same brush because it’s not always true. Just as an aside mate - if you can find a book called "Central 1179 - The story of Manchester's Twisted Wheel Club" you and your old man will probably love it. Don't know how to post photo's on here any more but, if I could, I would post the cover photograph. Great read. Edited November 1, 2019 by bolty58 Quote

Smiley Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Watched about 45 mins of "Red Mist: Keane vs McCarthy Civil War" about the fall out at the 2002 World Cup. Might be as old as day (was on YouTube) - but got recommended it. Anyway, fell asleep. Was ok up until that point. Roy is as mad as they come though. But had a point. Quote
Rudy Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Cheers Traf, I’m off to Italy on Monday (thinly veiled) so I’ll try and get it to have a read on the plane Anyone watched Power? They’re all banging on about it at work. Quote

Marc505 Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Reminded me that, meant to be a Rainbow Six film coming out next year. Quote
jeep Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 (edited) I may have already mentioned this on here but I highly recommend Night & Day. It's set in Barcelona. Watched the 2nd series last week. It's a crime thriller. Really good, and noticed that a 3rd series is filming 👍 Edited November 1, 2019 by jeep Forget to mention that it's accessible via All 4 Quote
birch-chorley Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 Succession on Sky is excellent Two series's to go at as well Happy binge watching Quote

Tonge moor green jacket Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 Anyone see the first episode of "his dark materials" last night? Harry Potter meets Game of Thrones. Need to watch it unfold over the coming weeks to make a proper judgement. Quote

I started watching it and thought it a bit weird but carried on watching, like yourself I need to watch it more to form a proper judgement. Looks alright though Quote

I watched the Golden Compass, based on the books, about 10 years ago and it was mostly average, and for some reason they never made the two proposed sequels, so never got to finish it might give it a whirl Quote

Watch it and see for yourself: just an aspect of it- I suspect it will gain traction and develop themes as it progresses. Quote
barryk32 Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 I watched the 1st three episodes of See last night with Jason Momoa. It was ace. A bit like Vikings Quote
Marc505 Posted November 8, 2019 Posted November 8, 2019 Girlfriend watches that fucking Supernatural, Jesus. 15 series of exactly the same shit every episode, I've not seen a single bird in it (or bloke actually...) that isn't fit as owt. Girl here been in a coma 12 years in hospital whose projecting murderous fairy tales into real events, hair and makeup done obviously. Quote
