    [TV] What's good to watch on BBC iPlayer ?

    I watched The Hairy Bikers Coming Home For Christmas yesterday. Dave and Si cook a meal for the people who helped Dave while he was getting treatment for cancer. A bit more of a weepy one that usual for the Hairy Bikers.

    [Music] Laura Lynch - RIP

    At the risk of following the conversation off topic, Lady Antebellum changed their name to Lady A. The problem was that there was already a black music artist who went by that name. Not really familiar with Laura, or her time with the Chicks, other than that it happened. I've only known (and...

    [Film] Film 2023

    It's a bit of a pet peeve of mine to see people complain about things in hollywood/movie industry "these days" when what they complain about has been issues for decades. Things like complaints about all the sequels and remakes that, as you've highlighted, have been dominating box offices for...

    [Film] Film 2023

    I saw a preview screening a while back. It's now available on Amazon Prime. I mostly liked it, though had some issues. Not sure I remember them all now, but I did enjoy Richard E Grant in particular.

    [Albion] Premier League 21-24/12/23

    Looks offside to me. 29's knee is the furthest forward part of his body, and looks to be inline with the inside of the newcatle player's leg, with the newcastle players shoulder (above the shirt line, so counts) is further forward then his knee. I'm not surprised the lines made it look not very...

    [Albion] Premier League 21-24/12/23

    I thought that. But apparently got cross eyed and saw Man U on 29 points instead of 28 and doubted myself.

    The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Singbirds and Snakes This was long, and I'm not sure it earns it. This focuses on the early life of Coriolanus Snow - the 'evil' dictator character of the Hunger Games - a series that had focused on one of the tributes from the outlying system of a distopian...

    [Albion] The BIG keeper debate

    When De Zerbi took over and we started faffing around at the back as a tactical choice, it was always said this would lead to occasional mistakes that could cost us a goal or two. Of course one of those mistake would happen against Palace making it seem even bigger than it is. But how many...

    [Albion] Infighting amongst our fans

    I don't know if I have merged two incidents into one, but I remember them occurring in the same game. That Leyton Orient game where the guy ran on the pitch (to get at the ref, or was he going for an orient player...?) and was stopped by Wilkins(?). I remember that guy, prior to this, getting...

    [Albion] Roberto De Zerbi nth Longest Serving Manager in the English League

    I was going to post an updated table as soon as Sunderland stopped having three temp managers on the list, but then there was a flurry of movement.
