  1. Clearly not enough for me. I don’t have a clue what your post is intended to convey :( Andy
     
  2. It's meant to convey that Fleabag is a good programme and well worth a watch.
    Note: more suitable for open minded people in tune with their feminine/softer side*.

    Oscar winning actress Olivia Coleman is a supporting actor


    * plus a bit of smuttiness!

  3. The normally barking-mad Ricky is correct.

    Fleabag is a marvelous, off-the-wall modern comedy with a serious side to it. Best thing to come from the BBC since ... ah ... probably something marvelous from forty years ago, no doubt.
    There is several themes going on at the same time and the viewer has a difficult, love-hate relationship with the titular character. Brilliant writing.

  5. 24 Hours in Police Custody.

    I do enjoy these. This week the story of a surgeon who tried to commit insurance fraud to the tune of £250k by faking the theft of some antiques. :mad:

    Motivated by greed. An excellent job, salary and career, multiple propeties and left a lot of assets after his parents died. Silly sod threw his career away and got 8 years in chokey for it. o_O

    I'm surprised how many of the people locked up are motivated by greed. Saying that, this series has been drug dealing (his house was actually searched for child pornography, which lead to the discovery of his drugs factory), knife crime etc. Well worth a watch.

  8. Just finished watching all of Sense8
     
  9. It was a fun series but the SJW agenda was a bit thick and cloying and, oh, I don't know, rammed down your fecking throat.

    I still enjoyed it though, if only because it featured an actress called "Tuppence Middleton". What a triffic name that is.

  16. I enjoyed it. Bit far fetched sometimes but I like stuff that is based on some historical facts.

    What did strike me (based on the producers interpretation on the show) was how very little had changed in living conditions (housing) from the 1920s to the 1960s, yet how things have changed massively, in terms of design and quality standards, since then. IYKWIM.
     
  17. Same here, you can imagine the disillusionment of the young men returned home from the horrors of trench warfare.
    Turning to a life of crime must have felt an easy option.
    It does however, like a lot of successful series, run wide of the mark.
    They’ve been filming here in Manchester recently for the next series.
