Tv series

Never saw you as a Trekkie mate.
Heard you called worse though.

Bet you’ve got a Captain Kirk pint pot.

Not a Picard one. Too young for you, would look desperate.

More.
Desperate.

I love Star Trek and any other sci-fi as well. Who told you about the Captain Kirk pint glass [pint pot FFS have you turned in to a southern softie].
 
Woke up rather early this morning and have power watched 2nd half of last season of Vikings. Dragged on a bit but watchable.
 
Shrinks no a trekie but I'm told he.has his fair share of klingons to match the pish stains.
Mostly from his Captains log
You've broken the golden rule. If you're going to rip the pish out of @Sir Shrink you have to tag him otherwise he may not see it and get suitably irked.
 
That is Tin Star finished, great telly, fair enjoyed it. Right, its dark midwinter, what next, any ideas?

Im watching The Man In The High Castle, just started the second season. Worth a go.
 
Started watching Tin Star the day but couldnt get into it at all and gave up and had a sleep instead :sleepyy:

I've watched something called Informer on the iPlayer over the last couple of weeks, I think it's from a few years back but it's decent. Paddy Considine is in it.
Thats weird, I just binge watched that last week...mainly because Paddy Considine is in it. I think it gets better as it goes on, dialogue a bit corny at times but its entertaining/enjoyable.
 
Just power watched It's A Sin.Extremely good,everything rung true,could have been me or my mates.Although I stayed extremely cautious.Didn't have as much fun but I'm still around.

Power watched it?
Do you mean binge watched or did you just put it on fast forward?
 
Desperate for some good, new(ish) SF so just watched first 2 eps of Pandora.

Seems like a cross beyween Bev Hills 64115 (?) or however much and CSI.

Very superficial $hite IMO so far, dunno if I'll make ep 3 - can anyone advise if worth it?
 
I binged watched it I just used that phrase because I read other people use it and thought that must be the phrase one uses these days.
You may be right with the phraseology Moaty. I’m notoriously unable to keep up with the ‘in’ stuff. Had to google ‘woke’ because it didn’t make sense in the context that the *&*^ wasn’t asleep in the first place.

you still think Moaty is just an extremely happy go lucky bloke :)

I know he is.
He’s happy to be alive.
That’s why he’s first to tell us about recent deaths.
Cannae be much happier to be lucky than that!

But aye, it’s difficult for us dinosaurs raised on The Black and White Minstrel Show, Benny Hill, and Tom and Jerry cartoons to accept that we were being brainwashed into racists/sexists etc.
I still enjoy the odd (I've used an racist word) carry out although I now appreciate how offensive this can be to the aforesaid plate of chicken and noodles.
I see a lot of Disney cartoons are being amended because of inbuilt racism. I actually think there may be a point in Jim Crow in Dumbo..... so I’m not being over critical, Maybe just recognising my own naivety.
Dumbo may have been an issue for me too. Taking the piss out of fat guys with big ears.
Bastards.
 
Ah ken it's BBC iPlayer but I stumbled across Year after Year on there. Only 6 episodes but worth a wee watch. It's a fly on the wall kind of programme which follows a family through the years in England as it and the rest of the world becomes more and more dystopian. I'm not selling it well but you should give it a bash,

If it's what I think it is they did one of a Black family-sorry Shrink,growing up in Brixton through the 50's till today.Was very interesting.I also think they did the 19th century and the early 20th.

It's a dystopian series and set slightly in the future and it's not a real family [obviously].

Watched Marcella.

Reminisced about the lovely Amanda Burton from Brookside (She was going out with the guy from picture box who turned out to be a heroin addict. Never really encountered any heroin addicts like the ones that you see on telly). Funnily enough Anna Friel was in Brookside too, but I preferred Nicola Stephenson.

Watchable, but I thought the build up was better than the conclusion.

Anna Friel just looks a complete psycho though.
 
Finally watched season 2 of the Mandalorian.

Been told to watch Wandavision for a similar moment, but I've went off the Marvel stuff..
