Yes if it’s the documentary I am thinking of it was simply called ‘Navalny’. It was an interesting watch. The thing is he did fight against Putin, constantly criticising him and his regime. That of course was the reason they tried to kill him in 2020. Shame he did not feel he could carry on doing that from outside Russia, as he would have surely outlived Putin. Not sure what he was hoping to achieve by returning.

Why on earth did he return to Russia a year after being poisoned by them. Surely he was more of a thorn in their side aggravating from the west than dying in some prison hell-hole.

Or vice versa.

Premier League Thread 2023/2024

Calvert-Lewin most overrated striker in the premier league? Not too many decent strikers go 17 games without a goal. -
Anyone else enjoying True Detective, Night Country? I still can’t work out what the hell is going on! Not sure they could make Jodie Foster’s character anymore abrasive.

My partner actually thought he had been given a terminal diagnosis, such was the wall to wall coverage. Just because the sycophantic media are obsessed with them doesn’t mean anyone else is.

Yes and his gullible wife standing by him. Quite a win win for him. Wonder how many times he’s got away with that crap in the past. Feel sorry for the genuine coppers, the police’s PR rating must be at an all-time low.

You really need to watch it, as hard as that may be.

Not all of them.🤥 -
No the programme is not a fake. It concerns Avon and Somerset police and it focusing on three appalling cases of police misconduct . Quite distressing to watch, as it shows police body cam footage for two of the incidents.

Channel 4’ s To catch a copper. Wow. Just wow. Amazing the nonsense that some people believe.

Yes I have watched that one too. It seems confirmation bias is systemic within the American Justice system. The police ‘find’ the evidence, which fits their perception of events and the DA’s office appear to happily go along with it. All they seem to care about is securing the conviction they want, doesn’t matter to them if logic dictates either wise.

Lovely tribute from Stallone.

Trial 4, 8 part documentary on Netflix about the corruption in the Boston Police Department and one man’s battle to clear his name. I have watched a great many of these documentaries over the last few years, but this is possibly the best one I have seen. Absolute riveting and compelling watching. His lawyer was brilliant.

Tragic. Perhaps some sort of GoFundMe appeal? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-norfolk-68133873

Sadly the entire Justice system is underfunded including the Probation Service, Prison Service and the Courts. I work in the courts and the backlog is horrendous.

Yes remember flicking cards. I also played throwing football coins against a wall and the winner was the boy that threw the coin closest to that wall and he would walk away with all of the coins thrown. I cannot remember where those coins came from!

Murder in Boston, 3 part Sky doc. Very interesting study of racism within Boston and how the black community were treated as a result of this murder.
-
They could both pass for men or women.

Agreed, spent what seemed like hours trying to knock them out of the trees! Don’t see kids out playing hopscotch either.

I have a bottle of advocaat in my fridge right now and surely they still sell Black Magic no?
-
He’s completely spineless, he might have run against him, but I don’t remember him directly criticising Trump. He’s probably hoping he gets a job off him.

It’s sports washing pure and simple. Why on earth would any serious football fan be interested in watching their Mickey Mouse league.
