They're making a prequel to the prequels set in time before their forebears emigrated to the US, it's called t'Ilkleymoorstone set in an area that's notorious for cunts to this day.

Careful, Mrs Fish is from Ilkley

 

 

(but you're right most of them from there are cunts)

I think it was @spongebob toonpantsmentioned it, and I'm currently enjoying For All Mankind. 

 

It's a reimagining of the space race where the Russians pip the Yanks to the moon, and then you go through the next decades with them wanting to be first to discover water and establish a base on the moon etc. I assume we're working our way towards Mars eventually. 

 

It's worth it just for the lass who plays astronaut Tracey Stevens.

Last of us 2 was fucking shite. Felt like a video game this time round, with an absolute shite plot. Poker face 2 has been a bit meh too. Gonna try this Q thing on Netflix next I think.

Has anyone watched the documentary about the Titan submersible that went bye-bye with 5 people on board? It's on Netflix. 

 

Fuck me, the bloke running the show. What a cunt. Hired people with the know-how to actually do what he was wanting to do and then sacked them one by one as they raised red flags about his plans. Then tried to bankrupt and ruin the life of a whistleblower that tried to put a stop to it all. 

 

There's bits where he's going deeper and deeper and you can hear the carbon fibre hull making these terrifying popping noises, which people on the doc are explaining is the carbon fibre strands snapping - in other words, the hull is failing. 

 

Daft lad calls it "seasoning the hull". :lol:

 

He deserved what he got, it's just a shame he took others with him. A proper narcissistic psycho.

Yeah, another rich, middle aged, white, narcissistic psychopath. Great film though. Didn't get what he deserved as he wouldn't even know it had happened. Feel sorry for the kid robbed of his life who, iirc, didn't even want to do it.

Also, fucking leave the Titanic alone now you morbid grave diggers.

I read a good longread about it a while back so don't feel the need to necessarily watch the documentary, but if it contains more pearls like him treating a submarine hull like it's a wok, I might be tempted...

Honestly, watch it. He does a test dive and it's like pop................... pop...........pop..pop.pop.pop.popppppp.

 

This is after the test model only reached half it's intended depth before being crushed like one of  Homer's Duff cans.

 

Stupid twat had built these sonic sensors which he just ignored. But you could physically hear the hull breaking. Really tense viewing even knowing g the end.
