In Order of Disappearance. A norwegian flick on Netflix. Slightly sill storyline, but beautifully shot. Enjoyed it.

Recommending Page Eight for anybody not seen it. Good political thriller in the John Le Carre mould. Really enjoyed it and Bill Nighy was excellent in the main role. Rachel Weisz and Ralph Fiennes are also in the cast.

Have to say, I spent the first 20 minutes thinking that she's taking the piss and that I'll get her back for this. Does turn into a decent film. However, it is better to watch it with subtitles on throughout, rather than to keep rewinding bits to turn subtitles on.Bruce Rioja wrote:I've gone out on a limb here and taken The Princess up on one of her recommendations.
End Of Watch is winging its way to me. She implores me that it's absolutely brilliant. Has anyone seen it?

I love having my finger up my arse and not on the pulse when it comes to telly.

I've got Nightcrawler to watch tonight, heard good things.
Tbh I don't get the attraction with Johansen either. Very average.

I wish I could concur with that film but I just thought it was bollocks.
Re: What are you watching tonight?
I think you have to be set up ready to love it. I liked it, especially the first half hour, but the missus hated it, and I can see why. If you don't love it an hour in, you won't like it.

Re: What are you watching tonight?
Funny, despite me mentioning that film a while ago I only got around to watching it tonight. I can see why people might hate it. There's very little in the way of dialogue and what there is consists of banal small talk, but I really liked it

I was enjoying it an hour in, was enjoying it right up to the end, but then it just ended.

Just watching something on television about Iranian LGBT's that have fled to Turkey to avoid being killed / forced to change their gender. The poor 4uckers. Unbelievable (almost) that this is going on in 2015.

Re: What are you watching tonight?
Ha. Watching TotP from 1980. UK Subs on doing 'Teenage'. I walked it into town to buy it because Ames Records (Come on, who remembers it?
) had it on pink vinyl (years later I discovered that every copy produced was on pink vinyl). I still have it upstairs.

Was Ames Records in the shop that was later occupied by HMV?

Re: What are you watching tonight?
I used to meet my mates 'Outside Tracks at Two' every Saturday for about 3 years.
Some good mooching places back then. Tracks, Ames, X-Records, Upstairs at W.H. Smiths, the K-Tel melti-disks and tape 'Bargain Basket' in Woolies
I once bought my Mum a Simon and Garfunkel tape from there for a Mother's Day present. Only it wasn't S&G it was recorded by Sefton and Bartholomew. Whoever they were.

And yes, BP. Ames shop eventually became HMV. THere was also Andy's Records on the site that's now Specavers, and Derek Guest on the corner of Corporation Street.

Used to love that place. Their World Music section was just the best. Trying to think what the record shop was next to the side of Burtons (Market Street) and below what used to be Tognarelli'sBruce Rioja wrote:

Re: What are you watching tonight?
Made me grin because I once grabbed a bargain L.P up that was just that, The Best of Simon and Garfunkel. Got it home and took it out of the bag to find it was Mantovani Plays.....It wasn't that bad actually for an instrumental....Gary the Enfield wrote:
