What are you watching tonight?

[Beefheart]

Heull? I'm assuming he will be.

Not sure, it's meant to be a prequel to Breaking Bad, and he drafted Huell/Hywel(?) in part way through the show. It does leave open the possibility for Mike to be resurrected though!

[TANGODANCER]

I'll be having a look at The Peaky Blinders, a gangster drama set in Birmingham after the first World War. ( B.B.C.2, 9-0'clock) Nice family who sewed razor blades in the peaks of their flat caps. First of six episodes.

Watching it now and quite enjoying it. However, I can't help myself assessing the dodgy accents. Very, very poor. (or "poower" as they (should) say in Brum).

I'll shut up an try to enjoy it for what it is.

His first appearance was when he was sent to take care of Ted, but I don't recall the dialog involved in it. If he was presented as 'new' and Saul had never met him before then that rules him out, but if there was little by way of explanation as where he came from then he could easily be used.

Mike definitely could be in it, as he was already a Saul guy during his first appearance.

Ah, I thought he was hired as a bodyguard initially and then was set to sort out the Ted problem after that. I could be wrong, but I'm sure the writers can have him in the show and make it make sense if they want to. I hope he's in it!

[hi there, i'm chris]

He might've been, I'm just guessing from memory.

Enjoyed Episode 1. Not looked yet where it was filmed, but for atmospheric, top marks. BBC do period stuff so very well. Sam Neill does the hard-nosed Belfast copper very well.

Agreed. Shame he's only one of a few who seemed to have been bothered to learn an accent. Isn't this a pre-requisite for all actors?

Having said that, I found it enjoyable and interesting and assuming it's based on fact, something I knew nothing about.

Good news everybody [1]

Although it only finished airing about a month ago, so eager are the Beeb for you experience it, that the first series of Count Arthur Strong is getting a repeat on prime time Saturday evening BBC2 at 7.30pm! Huzzah! We can chuckle away at it all over again so that's my Saturday evenings sorted for the next six weeks!

[1] Well, I say everybody. Clown types not invited, obviously.

[Bruce Rioja]

^^ To fully appreciate how appallingly and desperately unfunny Count Arthur Strong is, watch one of the repeats of the timeless Dad's Army that's on just before it first.

[Prufrock]

I'd never seen any (Count Arthur Strong) so when I turned on half-way through last night I thought I'd have a look. Wow. Not *quite* Mrs Brown's Boys level of shite, but oh so very close. Wont be making that mistake again.

I would have saved you that bother, grasshopper. Learn to trust me.

Enjoying catching up on 'Educating Yorkshire' on 4OD

[Beefheart]

Time for the weekly 'wow how good was breaking bad this week?' post. Probably my favourite episode of them all so far. Perfection.

oh yes!

they manage to have it totally spiralling out of control - and yet still keep it in the box!

Forget about the film "Sharknado" that was mentioned a few pages back. Its just lost the title of most bizarre shark related film, to the one currently on Syfy..... "Ghost Shark". All I can say is... What the feck!!!!!

I saw a trailer for that. Looks quite ridiculous. Watched another classic the other day, Piranhaconda.

Ridiculous is an understatement . Watched Piranhaconda and was completely shocked at both how appalling the film was but more so how rough Rachel Hunter is looking these days. Used to fancy the arse off her but not now. Was a bit gutted too be honest (Although thats a bit sad).... oh who am I kidding, I'd still "smash her back doors in" as the yoof of today say.

Hearing the news regarding Billy Connolly tonight reminded me that I still haven't seen the film, Mrs Brown. It's ont' list now.
