Watch the practice known as "grabbing", I can think of a few other terms for it. That Swanley lad is a character though!

Re: What are you watching tonight?
All the wimmin at work were on about this yesterday - saying that it's inhumane etc but if that's how they do things then fair enough. Is it any worse than getting leathered on WKDs and copping off with someone you have never met?boltonboris wrote:I heard about that from a few people at work..P.O.S. wrote:Saw it last night, some of it left me speechless!Lofthouse Lower wrote:Going to watch that 'Gypsy Wedding' thing tonight/:

I'm gonna this 10 o'clock show thing on channel 4 a go. Even though I can't stand 3 of the presenters. Should be great.

I'm giving it a go, purely for the brilliant David Mitchell, who is probably one you can't stand!superjohnmcginlay wrote:I'm gonna this 10 o'clock show thing on channel 4 a go. Even though I can't stand 3 of the presenters. Should be great.

Might give it a whirl on the grounds I only can't stand 2 of them. Always a good basis for deciding what to watch.superjohnmcginlay wrote:I'm gonna this 10 o'clock show thing on channel 4 a go. Even though I can't stand 3 of the presenters. Should be great.

I'll give it a whirl on account of really liking two of the presenters, liking one of them a bit and not being mithered either way on the last one.

Re: What are you watching tonight?
Watched Kurosawa's Kagemusha for the first time in about 25 years... (Lovefilm encourages this kind of self-indulgence, much to its credit)... I previously viewed it as a sort of Japanese epic movie about the cruelty of war, with not much else going for it other than the astonishing use of colour and large cast...
I now think it's an intriguing moral tale spinning around the notion of majesty/nobility. A thief becomes the 'shadow' double of a Japanese warlord and, when the warlord is killed, becomes the leader of his state and army... almost Shakespearean in its theme... is nobility inherited, is it earned, can it be achieved by anyone? And none of the questions answered easily...
I also got the same director's Throne of Blood - a Samurai take on Macbeth... Will report later...

Mixed but you'd expect it to be with that format.thebish wrote:Worthy4England wrote:Might give it a whirl on the grounds I only can't stand 2 of them.

Agree that Laverne serves no purpose whatsoever.
I'm no Jimmy Carr fan but thought he worked quite well on that, and his "news briefs" or whatever it was called, was funny.
Funniest bit was "Listen to Mitchell", nearly wet meself during that.

The only one that was half decent was Brooker - and I can usually take or leave him.thebish wrote:Worthy4England wrote:Might give it a whirl on the grounds I only can't stand 2 of them.

Just watch Star Wars instead - has all the best bits of Kurosawa but with lasers and wookies
