On Netflix. New series.

World War 11 From the Frontlines.

Footage I've never seen before and all has been colourised.

On episode 2 now and it's voices being heard from all folk at that terrible time.

Watching this brilliant documentary about the history of the Gulag system.

Poor fuckers working by hand in -30/40° cold.

Old footage of the poor sods being worked to death.

When the Gulag opened in Kolyma one of the bosses gets rewarded by Stalin.

He gets presented with Lenin's wife's Rolls Royce.

Well worth a watch and learn how millions died in the Soviet Union many many years before WW2......

The oldest photo of Lenin in a luxury car that I have been able to find is the one below, which depicts the Russian revolutionary with his wife, Nadezhda and his sister Maria after the Red Army Parade at Khodynka Field in Moscow. It dates May 1st, 1918

The Comrade of Ecstasy: Lenin’s Rolls Royce

Started watching Ted Lasso last night. 2 episodes in. Not LOL funny but seems to have a good vibe to it and found it quite uplifting.

I enjoyed it but the second series was a wee tad disappointing then the 3rd series goes full on woke.
 
Just binge watched The Beatles Get Back again. What a wonderful piece of music history. Had a tear in my eye at the end.
Highlights, George helping Ringo with Octopus's garden, the lift in mood when they relocated to Apple studios from Twickenham, Billy Preston effortlessly fitting in, the sheer happiness and love between John and Paul and of course the rooftop concert. A masterpiece!

Can you access channel 4 over in France? If so try 24 hours in Police Custody.

Some horrible bastards get their comeuppance on it.

I probably could if I made an effort, but most programmes end up on one platform or another eventually (eg I watched Vera last night) so I'll look out for it. Cheers.
 
Here's an episode i found on Yatube

Watched 6 episodes of Kin the past few nights from BBC Iplayer. Dublin crime drama. Really enjoying it but episode 6 went a wee bit weird. I'd still recommend it though.
 
I'm currently watching Industry on prime. I'm struggling with it a bit - too many beautiful people, (considered stopping after 2 episodes) but I'm almost finished.

I never thought I'd find myself saying this, but I'm getting pissed off by too many gratuitous (and fairly graphic) sex scenes in these series. They're very rarely needed for the plot.

It means I can't watch these things when my kids are around.

And I like seeing women's bits as much as the next man.

Some shows you need to persevere with as it builds the characters.

A few of my mates have no patience though. Still it's their loss.

How are you keeping the now? Still in pain?
