After the one sided first half in the New Zealand rugby match last night i wanted some music so i opened a bottle of wine and went 4 this mob again, well it could've been paint stripper.
Russian Doll on Netflix. S1 worth a watch, S2 becomes beyond ridiculous and has one of those ‘wrap in it 5’ the us at the end.
Tried watching. Got 1 1/2 episodes in and gave up. Terribly written imho and a shame as I like a couple of the actors in it: they just couldn’t shine.
Puppy School for Guide Dogs. The amount of effort that goes into this, especially from volunteers, is amazing. Didn't realise the dog was loaned, rather than given, and that the recipient has to sign an agreement about how it will be looked after. Ch 5, Fridays @ 8pm.
AFAIK, guide dogs have a working life then they’re retired. I was offered a retiring guide dog but as I lived alone at the time wasn’t allowed to adopt one.
This past week we’ve binge watched a. Alma’s not normal b. Fleabag c. Who is Erin Carter? and now we’re on to the Night Agent.
Top Boy (Netflix) This drama takes viewers into the housing estates of east London. There is tension between the drug gangs that operate almost openly and those who strive to live honest lives against the odds in the crime-riddled area. That tension is explored through the interlocking stories of 20-something drug dealer Dushane, who is determined to become the area's Top Boy, and good-natured but vulnerable teenager Ra'Nell, who is forced to grow up quickly following his mother's breakdown and enforced absence. The programme combines elements of a tense gangster thriller with subtle social realism, some tenderness, innocence and wry humour.
