Win Win very amiable, we both enjoyed, made us laugh, made us feel, enjoyed a lot of the acting. Glad we saw.

Strong in you, the force is, william!

Watched an Algerian-French co production called Days of Glory (in French and Arabic, subtitled) which was set in World War 2 and would have been unremarkable and over-familiar in its depiction of war but for the fact that it followed the fortunes of an Algerian unit engaged in the liberation of France from 1943-45 (based on historical fact). The oppressed help to liberate their oppressors and get no thanks and little recognition. Good movie. Intriguing subject.

Then BBC 4 again for part two of no direction home. Loved.

Did it, by any chance, have subtitles?

and generally regarded as being a bag of sh*te?

[P.O.S.]

Watched "This Is England 86" through again last night, still find it excellent viewing; hilarious, depressing, upsetting and inspiring in equal measure.

Roll on This Is England 90!

I didn't know she had, fair play to her! Did it win any other awards?

After a quick check, it seems that a one off christmas special has been filmed and currently being edited entitled This Is England 88, which will be then followed by another mini series set in 1990.

Slight worry that it may be too much and dilute it a bit, but if its anywhere near as good as 86 then Im not complaining.

[Annoyed Grunt]

Watched She's Out of My League.

Was ok, nothing majorly special.

[boltonboris]

Anybody watching Game of Thrones? Because it's fooking ace!

[superjohnmcginlay]

I'll get to that at some point. On Pacific at the moment which is good.

It is. Not as good as BoB but still good!

[superjohnmcginlay]

I must be one of the few people who never saw much of that despite hearing all the glowing reports. Another one for the list. Mind you people raved about Boardwalk Empire and that's just meh.

Boardwalk Empire was great, nay amazing, once you'd struggled with the initial "what the fook is going on here then"?

But if you like Pacific you will LOVE Band of Brothers!

Win Win very amiable, we both enjoyed, made us laugh, made us feel, enjoyed a lot of the acting. Glad we saw.

Watched it last night and thought very much the same. Thomas McCarthy's an excellent director, you should check out his other films The Station Agent and The Visitor if you've not seen them already.

Indeed it is, but as has been mentioned it's nowhere near as good as Band of Brothers'

Sky Atlantic is a superb channel though...

Curb your enthusiasm is brilliant too!

[Annoyed Grunt]

The Mrs has just watched Dating in the Dark she recorded last night, meh.

One of the best recent shows, got all the season box sets on DCS.

I watched that "All watched over by machines of loving grace" last night.

I don't know the name of the guy who writes and narrates them, but he;s always been consistently excellent. This series appears to be no exception.

I just hope he's not a bit of a nob in real life like that Niall Ferguson. Really spoiled it for me that.
