Brilliantly done, I think.

Currently watching the most recent series of Killing Eve. Now there's a show that's disappeared up it's own arse! Probably the least enjoyable show I've watched so far this year... it doesn't help that I can't remember what went on in the season before (the recap was the most unhelpful recap ever) and so I don't really understand what anyone is doing anymore or why. It's just a show about Eve's and Villanelle's boring infatuation with each other, and then a load of other characters wittering on about the 12 in the background.

Didn't really enjoy the 3rd series of Stranger Things but 4 is really good.

And as a kid I seem to remember Kate Bush being ridiculed. Didn't Kenny Everett spoof her or is my memory playing tricks on me. So I've never really listened to her. She had quite the voice, didn't she.

She's from Bexleyheath which is where I used to go swimming as a kid & see Billy Bonds with his kids so there's a West Ham connection there too :grin:

The other half insists on watching it unfortunately. I can't wait for it to end so we can move on to Stranger Things.

Me and t'other half have an agreement.

We have shows we watch together.

We have shows we watch apart. Hers massively outweigh mine, but there is NO WAY ON EARTH I will watch even a split second of those 'Housewives of....' things.

Crook Log Swimming Pool? That's where I learnt to swim and I'm disappointed now I never saw Billy or Kate on the Aquazoom slides, although I expect Billy was mostly diving off the mega-high diving board that you needed balls of steel to even climb up on

I’m in Bexleyheath, the swimming baths got torn down some time ago and moved across the road where the other leisure centre is. - I take my little on there for swimming lessons.

Bill lives out by Elmstead woods these days, I regularly see him on my drive home from work.

Yes, Crook Log. Used to see Bonds there in the early 80s.

On warmer days I'd be at the Charlton Lido.

Finally finished Anatomy of a Scandal on Netflix.

A rancid dog turd of a programme with plot holes you could handbrake turn an artic through. ALL the characters were deeply unpleasant, even the two rape victims. The whole thing was preposterous and the ending totally stupid. 1/10

Loved My Name is Earl. It's a shame they didn't finish it properly.

I also thought the acting of Nadine Velaquez was superb.

series 1 was really good. Villanelle is also hot as hell.it slowly went further and further downhill and focused too much on Eve who was very very poorly cast

:crylol: Absolute quality. One of my favourite moments in the Boys is in the very first episode, where A-Train runs through Hughie's girlfriend. It completely set the tone for the series and has not forgotten its roots


I've now watched the first three episodes.

Loved episode 2, the story advancement was great.

Episode 3 left me feeling :?

Obi Wan Kenobi is rather good. Quality filming and Darth Vader being ultra bad.
