What are you Watching Today Part 2

[StillSpike]

Paddington in Peru. Nope, shame.

Enjoyed Heretic.

[Max B Gold]

Zero Day. Crivvens.

Zero Day. Crivvens.

I was planning to watch that this week. Is it bad?

[Constanza]

Paddington in Peru. Nope, shame.

I'm never going to watch it in case in tarnishes the best film ever made.

A wise move. It would.

[Father Ted Crilly]

Severance 2 is turning out to be utterly brilliant.

Yes. And Mrs FTC is getting most annoyed at having to wait for weekly episodes.

[The Mindsweep]

The 3rd Series of the US Tratiors is a cracker

[The Mindsweep]

The Outrun on Netflix. Saw it last year in the cinema and was one of my favourites of the year

[Constanza]

White Lotus Series 3 bit slow so far.

Went to see Dylan Moran last night, first time at any comedy for yonks. And it was...bad. I know he's done the "is he pissed, is he not pissed?" schtick for quite some time but I saw him about 10 years ago at the Apollo and he was brilliant, definitely on the right side of whimsical and shambolic but clearly knew what he was doing. Last night he just mumbled for 25 minutes - granted, the sound wasn't great - rambled along then pretty much just wandered off stage, having done less of a set than the supports. Have since read online he's done a divorce and gone downhill a bit, sad if so. Highlight was probably the guy behind saying to his Mrs "I can't take any more of this" before they walked out.

Saw Dustin O’Halloran at Union Chapel in the week. Never been there before but aside from the uncomfortable pews it was quality

[Proposition Joe]

Union Chapel is a great venue.

[The Mindsweep]

Episode 7 of Paradise was a cracker

[Long slender neck]

Masters of The Air (Apple TV)- Band of Brothers in a B17. I liked it. 7.5/10

[The Mindsweep]

The Toni Basil movie was very good

[StillSpike]

Cruel Love (ITVx) - 4 part miniseries on the Ruth Ellis story. Really very good - good performances from all involved. 8/10

[Long slender neck]

Bikeriders- drama about a bike gang. Not particularly thrilling

[Long slender neck]

Mickey 17- more Okja then Parasite, sadly. 5/10

[Max B Gold]

Homestead Rescue series 12 Ep10.

Marty is having awful problems keeping bears off the property in Southern Alaska. He tries everything fron 8ft high tensile steel fencing, boards with big nails sticking out of them and bear spray for the really argumentative bears. Some of these things work, some don't. I don't know why he doesn't just shoot them.

Not watched yet but have Adolescence on Netflix lined up. Looks superb, has rave reviews but also looks hard going. Wonder if Stephen Graham has ever considered doing a sitcom?

[Currywurst and Chips]

Think casting directors have worked out that putting Stephen Graham in something results in automatic rave reviews

He does have a tendency to play the suppressed-rage-inflicted scouser character quite a bit, doesn't he?

He's the go-to choice for when they need an archetypal, state educated, white working class geezer.

Ah so that explains why he got the part of Al Capone in Boardwalk Empire. I suspected that might be the case.

He's actually a very good actor and is versatile enough to play many different characters.

I saw the trailer for this which was quite unbelievable with armed Cops going into a family home at 6.30am in the morning to very aggressively arrest a 12 year old in his bed. Who was yelling to his dad "I didn't do nuttin'".

Despite his loud protestations of innocence I suspect he has done summin'. Otherwise why would the police arrest him?
