Due to Elis' marketing campaign I've started watching 'Elis James: Football Nation'.

It's very good.

Spotlight has been added to their film list.

I doubt many of you haven't, but if you're one of those, you really must.






& naturally my fav pod, which is Boston heavy, have a superb companion piece

We finished watching 'Time' last night.

Jimmy McGovern TV is just wonderful...Sean Bean and Stephen Graham are both superb.

I am never, ever going to prison.

All series of Spiral, the brilliant police drama based in Paris, are available on iplayer.

(Much loved on nsc).

The first series was such a long time ago, we can’t recall the outcome, we’ve just started watching it again.

As I said on the 'dangerous driving' thread:-


Oh and this has always been my opinion, but in the wake of 'Time' on BBC1, I'll reiterate,

I'm not saying 'pah 2 years I could do that standing on my head'.

I couldn't, I absolutely couldn't, I know full well I wouldn't even make it to the first play time.
2 years (1 year, 1 Christmas, possibly no Easter's missed! ) is terrifying.

That's not the point I'm making.
My point is 2 years v an entire life, plus family, changed by the actions of a man who was 'too stoned to brake' - really doesn't feel like justice.

Another vote for Time. Brilliant.

[Is it PotG?]

Based on the acclaimed novel by Ian McGuire, the five-part series tells the story of Patrick Sumner (O’Connell), a disgraced ex-army surgeon who signs up as ship’s doctor on a whaling expedition to the Arctic. But the ferocity of the elements is matched by the violence of his crewmates, with Drax (Farrell), a harpooner and distinctly brutal force of nature.

As the true purpose of the expedition becomes clear, a confrontation between the two men erupts, taking them on a journey far from solid ground and beyond the safe moorings of civilisation.

The North Water will air on the channel in five 60-minute, parts and stars (the brilliant) Stephen Graham, Jack O’Connell and Colin Farrell (among others).
