Enjoyed it too and leaves it open for another "final" series or as you say, a film.Long slender neck wrote: ↑Mon Apr 04, 2022 8:03 am I was thinking that was the only way he'd get out of it. Enjoyed the final episode. Film next?

Pam & Tommy
On Disney+. Just finished the second episode and, so far, it seems like a well written, acted and put together retelling of the infamous sex tape fiasco staring Pamela Anderson.
Just a word to the wise - do not watch episode 2 on a train where your fellow passengers may happen to glance at your screen.

‘Old Enough’ on Netflix. It’s absolutely brilliant.
(No, it’s not OCWy in the slightest).

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Bit disappointed so far with Top Boy series 2, don't care about where the drugs come from just want to see the results on society that the first series and Summerhouse did so magnificently.
Alan Carr's interiors continue to satisfy my furnishing needs.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
The Savile documentary on Netflix. It brings everything together to explain the how, why and what. The victim testimonies are powerful. But I don't think you really learn anything new.
Still, a good document of the systematic and establishment failings that allowed him and others like him to affect so many lives.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Re Top Boy completely agree the BBC incarnation was much better on the effects on society and a much more impactful and scary insight on that basis the latest is a bit grand guignol with some glammed up locations. The Liverpool gang strand is laughable.Constanza wrote: ↑Thu Apr 07, 2022 3:53 pm Bit disappointed so far with Top Boy series 2, don't care about where the drugs come from just want to see the results on society that the first series and Summerhouse did so magnificently.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Enjoy.
The last series was not as good as the previous ones. And "Mad Alice" we we termed her, is just fantastic.

Yorkshire Ripper: The Secret Murders
Another interesting documentary on this subject, looking at a number of other likely victims. As always, the police incompetence and prejudice is infuriating. On itv hub.

Gazza(iPlayer): two part documentary, focuses on how this alcoholic was manipulated by the media. I would have liked it to go on a bit further to cover his entire playing career, but it stops after he was dropped by England in 98.

Barry S3 - excellent dark comedy series about a hitman who is also an actor. Check it out if you have NowTV or Sky.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Just finished the final half season of Ozark. I shall miss it.
I do think it was better in S1 and S2, but whole thing was enjoyable.

Better Call Saul the final series. May be watching Breaking Bad again as the sequel.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Gonna really miss it. Enjoyed all the series. Thought the last episode was very intune with the whole series. ALL events made sense. Also will miss spotting the 4 symbols at the start of each episode and spotting them.StillSpike wrote: ↑Tue May 03, 2022 12:45 pm Just finished the final half season of Ozark. I shall miss it.

We watched series 1-3 again just before series 4 and it was even better second time around.
Gotta be in my top 5 series of all time, but nothing beats Dark. So good I'm scared to watch it again in case it wasn't as good as I thought. Surprised if it wasn't though.

Ooh. Never clocked them as a thing - but I guess once you know…Also will miss spotting the 4 symbols at the start of each episode and spotting them.
[haven’t watched S4 yet beyond e1 - will get round to it but my interest dipped thru s3]

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Finished Ozark- ending felt a bit incomplete. Needed more car chases, explosions and also some further episodes to explain Marty's future life with the Bluth family.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Just finished watching "This is Spinal Tap". This film is nearly forty years old and I've seen it a
number of times, but it still makes me laugh out loud. One of the best comedy films ever made.

Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2
Some years ago I went to musical based on the story of Jack the Ripper at the local Theatre Arts college. Was humming "you're a naughty one, saucy Jack" to myself most of the evening.Chicken Dhansak wrote: ↑Mon May 16, 2022 2:31 pm Just finished watching "This is Spinal Tap".
