Has anyone, apart from me, actually watched this and thought it to be a load of bollox?

 

BBC iPlayer - Uncanny

I watched an episode t’other day. When I saw one of the “independent” sceptics used to be a psychic on “Most Haunted” I instantly thought, yep this is a load of old Bollox 😂

[nnfox]

Just finished watching Snowfall on iPlayer.  Wow.  How it passed me by over the last few years is beyond me.  Easily the best thing I've seen on TV since The Wire.  Utterly brilliant.

 

Lead actor is a Brit too.

[Tommy Fresh]

Still no news on Bloodhounds being renewed for a second season

[FOXYTALK]

Caught up with time. Thought it was abit meh. Whittakers character is rather annoying. 

[UniFox21]

Latest season of "What we do in the shadows" wasn't great, felt the storyline wasn't explored well

[Izzy]

The Robbie Williams documentary on Netflix is interesting. 

 

He's still very much in his own head with an inflated ego and talking about himself in the 3rd person but clearly suffers from MH issues.

 

Living in a $50m mansion, £230m in the bank, a wife and 4 kids, but he still seems a bit lost.

 

He makes a good point that child superstars (he was only 16 when Take That started) very rarely end up graduating to a normal adulthood.

 

Too much too young.

Looking forward to watching Monarch Legacy of Monsters tonight

 

Enjoyed the films and looks like it is reviewing pretty well

[Langston]

Watched The Bear (only got a couple of eps left of S2 to finish) based on recommendations both in here and from friends, it's outstanding, I love it. The episode Forks where Richie does a week at a 3 star restaurant is brilliant.

The episode Fishes where you have guest stars Bob Odenkirk and Sarah Paulson is amazing, a fantastic bit of relegation.

2 episodes in of Brawn: The impossible F1story. 
 

Really good so far - excellent insight into the workings of F1 and the FIA.
 

Take aways so far…Loving the politics of it all. A bit weird that Keanu Reeves made it. Bernie is a cvnt.

Thanks for those who have recommended Ted Lasso it’s brilliant.

Series 2 is absolutely superb television especially.

Binging series 1 at the moment. 

[leicsmac]

Planet Earth III.

 

Superb again, with a reminder that what we as a species are doing to the natural world is utterly abhorrent.

Bet Boat Story caught a few bbc Sunday night viewers by surprise

Some dark humour too. Reminded me of Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels as well as Snatch.

Yeah, a polite reminder for them that it is in fact past the 9pm watershed. 

 

Enjoyable watch with the dark comedy, too.

[Chelmofox]

Family just discovered ghosts. No idea why it passed us by. Bloody epic. 

[Bellend Sebastian]

Murder in Successville quietly sneaked back on the iPlayer.

 

One of the stupidest things I've ever seen, I love it

Fun show!

[ozleicester]

Finally finished "Succession". 

Well made, if a little dragged out toward the end. My interactions with "similar" media moguls/ workers suggests its a pretty decent representation.

What a pack of complete and utter c***s

[The Bear]

Watched the first episode of Beckham. What an absolute cvnt Hoddle was. And I already knew he was a massive one from his time managing Wolves!

Ever watched the American version?

I didn't even realise it got made! I vaguely remember it being talked about.

 

Obviously the Americans CAN make amazing comedy but their track record of taking British shows and remaking them isn't amazing.

 

Have you seen it? If so, any good?

I watched a couple, and it's actually alright, Will Arnett is good in the Tom Davis DI Sleet role, I'd definitely try it if you ever have some spare time.
