Is it about a princess? 

 

 

Has no one dipped their toe into Dope Thief yet? It's good stuff. Can't remember, might be on Apple+. 

 

We're back watching Reacher for some easy viewing. It's absolute horseshit but if I come with too much intense viewing it gets hard to convince my lass to fire up the next episode.

Nah, it’s about a girl that gets stolen. 
 

It’s British (Holiday Grainger stars). Feels more like an ITV drama than anything Disney produced..

Yep I'm up to date on that. Great stuff. 


Took me a while to properly get into it, but it's brilliant. Gary Oldman is hilarious

Diamond heist, the story of the millennium dome diamond robbery. 3 hours of thick cunts failing at everything they do and in the end you learn the diamonds were fake anyway.


Yeah I watched that the other day. I'd seen a different take on it some years ago when they revealed they'd switched the diamonds for fakes, but it wasn't from the angle of the bloke involved. 

Fairly decent watch.

Well thanks for spoiling the ending. That's what we all look for in the recommend me something to watch thread.

Into the third episode of 'A state of happiness' on the iPlayer, set in Stavanger in the sixties when oil is kicking off with the yanks trying to muscle in. Enjoying it so far which is just as well as we've ran out of stuff to watch, (not that I think the missus is bothered as the subtitles when the Norwegians speak is putting her off I can tell).

Watching a documentary called "Turning Point: The Vietnam War". 

I've always been shamefully ignorant of this conflict and period in US history, despite Paul Hardcastle. It covers the politics, the war itself, it's impact on society and civil rights. Clearly the US has always been fucked up.

Is that the one that was on BBC 2 then later repeated on Netflix? Absolutely superb if it's the same series. :good:

Probably, I've watched it in Netflix. 

 

While I'm here the latest series of Black Mirror is a return to form imo after 2 dud series. Also I'd say Netflix basic with adverts is the way to go, they are barely noticeable.

I've currently got Top of the Pops 1985 re-runs on.  Its on BBC 4. Some great early memories coming back.

 

Not sure what month it was but I've a memory of that year playing subbuteo in the dining room with lampshades as floodlights and listening to the recently taped top ten featuring talking heads, fergal Sharkey, Jennifer rush, Madonna, Elton John and aha. It's funny what sticks.

My eldest cousin in 1988 had a big Subbuteo set up with homemade floodlights my uncle made. We made up a league and all sorts.  We would play whilst listening to games on the wireless. Great times.

Fucking hell. It's only going to get worse on here from now onwards regarding nostalgia.

HMHM "Why aye man, jumpers fro goal posts man down Walker way, climbing up the bombed out houses, Japs and Commandos....." 

 

PL "Hoots Mon, Ken that one we played with the sheep? No even allowed nowadays..." 

 

Gemmill  "Aye, I had Kevin Tom's Football Manager on me speccy, I remember it didn't even have xG stats correct mind......"

I was thinking that when Wyki was talking about the Vietnam war at school. At his age I was learning about the Napoleonic wars and earlier. When did history get so recent? 🙁
