There's 2 good films by that name. I'm guessing you didn't mean the underground boxing one though... Doubt it appears on streaming services as often as the Rome one. |

We enjoyed Devil's Hour too. We have 2 series on the go now. S3 of His Dark Materials on BBC1 and Tokyo Vice which we have downloaded to the Sky Box, although I think it is also BBC. It is in a mixture of English and Japanese (with subtitles) only 2 episodes in but I like it.

Not seen much of Ansel Elgort since Baby Driver , well actually no , I did see him briefly in The Goldfinch but didn't really like it so switched off after 10 minutes - like you I'm 2-3 episodes in , takes a while to get into , Japanese culture seems weird [ to me ] but I think I'm enjoying it . |

I’m on YouTube watching Trawlermen I love the fisherman videos. I wonder how Brexit has gone down with the fishermen?

Wayne Rainey riding his 1990s GP motorbike at this year's Goodwood festival of speed. What makes it special is Rainey's career ended when he was left paralysed from the chest down in a crash.

We watched The Watcher on Netflix. I wished I'd looked at the reviews first. What a pile of steaming shite.

Watched the RI Christmas Lecture on BBC 4, a bit more rugged than the usual.

Tinker,Tailor.Soldier,Spy. Colin Firth, Cumberbatch et al. Recorded some time ago.
I love Le Carre. I think that I've read every word he wrote. I don't know how folk who haven't read the book would get on with this film. It uses scenes of a few seconds to convey messages that the book handles in a chapter (or even two!).

I've got the DVD collection of the BBC series, which is pretty close to the book.

As my daughter is home until Thursday and we have similar tastes, we have been watching S2 of Alice in Borderland on Netflix after my wife has gone to bed. We want to get it finished before she goes home.
Basically along the premise of Squid Games but probably a bit more violent and in Japanese.

My wife and I have been watching the box set of 'The Shield' on DVD (88 episodes over 7 series), and finished it in Christmas Eve. The programme lived up to its reputation. It's not immediately obvious, but it was made without any of the 'strong language' that so rapidly becomes boring and allows the dialogue writers to be lazy. So for his one the writers had to be creative and use more varied references. Sometimes this was (I think) unintentionally funny, particularly when describing body parts and various sexual acts.
Recommended.
