  1. Depending on your interest, and don't know what you've seen before... The West Wing is fantastic and there are 7 seasons of joyful telly to get through. Deadwood I've heard is amazing and is complete, but with only 3 seasons. Sopranos is 6 seasons long, I have that lined up, saved for a rainy day, that was supposed to be really rather good. I confess to being a great big fan of NCIS a formulaic crime show, now in its 10th season but the dynamic and writing between the main cast really make it fun to watch. At 4+ seasons Burn Notice is also fun - though I've only seen one or two episodes so far and it has cult B movie hero Bruce Campbell in it! Lie To Me was ok for its run too. There's a load more Currently I'm watching Dexter and love it - it's on its 7th season and though I've just seen season 6 is wonderfully entertaining. House? If you haven't seen that, there are 8 seasons ( though the last two definitely a bit weaker ). Buffy? or the star treks must have a few seasons for a sci-fi similar to battlestar, or possibly doctor who if you're into it?
  2. cost blackpool the win today on as a sub and missed two sitters. He is still lowon confidence, will never make it with us
  3. not good so far. needs to **** sort out that midfield.
  4. so glad I didn't go to the pub to watch this one. **** woeful. again.
  5. lichaj is also more comfortable on the right than the left so it's not too bad.
  6. well good for him! glad he's enjoying his football!
  7. Ive discovered the joy of charity shops as a source of clothes/ gifts. So cheap and simple and all in one store! Will go to other stores as and when they're closing and have 90% off sales!
  8. Cheers Designer, shall plonk it on the list to see
  9. blimey. Just watched The Wave - another superb German film, my initial criticism was that one week seemed like an implausibly short timescale for the transformation, until I read this real life account upon which I presume the film is based: http://libcom.org/history/the-third-wave-1967-account-ron-jones madness.
  10. "big club syndrome" well at least they have respect for us edit: these smilies are rubbish.
  11. oh fair enough, I confess to not knowing very much about the sport. I suppose it probably is for the best then.
  12. it doesn't matter really, they're all in cahoots with corporations and big business anyway, so either one makes **** all difference. in some romney would be a more honest choice " we're **** repellent and we don't care". America will get what it deserves* * though that's applicable to us and every other democracy too tbf, the ability of pr bullshit to convince poor people to screw themselves over in the voting booth is a true victory for the strategists.
  13. i know they say they won't re-award the victories retrospectively but you'd think some of those chaps might fancy claiming victory - especially escartin and azevedo - they're now double Tour winners, morally and technically!
  14. First two were decent enough; unfortunately the latest one seemed pretty poor though
  15. double bill yesterday The Third Man - 7/10 - really enjoyed it, soundtrack was a little bizarre, but good plot, not too long, some particularly well shot scenes in post-war Vienna looked really impressive. Not sure I understand why it's been thought of as such a amazing classic, but maybe that's just general hype doing it's usual OTT thing. Apocalypse Now Redux - 8/10 loved it - haven't seen the original and I do want to I think because I reckon I was able to work out where the extra material came in, in this one, the scene with the french colonials dragged on far too long and disrupted the flow of the film a bit, and the scenes involving the playbunnies felt like an additional extra, but aside, I thought it was terrific, though I do want to read Heart of Darkness ( is there a film version of that too? ) which apparently this is based on. Bit odd to claim Marlon Brando 'stars' in the film really, though. He's in about 5 scenes and is basically a bulky man being weird. I like Brando, but hmm. Also, it was quite fun to see some of these lines that have been parodied or quoted in their original context too.

    in fairness, if you're a batter, you sit around most of the time and then occasionally come up and have a swing and possibly go for a a ring of jogs once every while, and if you're a fielder, you're either standing on a mat or doddling about in the field unless the ball comes your way in which case you may need to sprint for all of 5 seconds. It requires limited athleticism, and doesn't have the physical demand on the body that football, nfl etc do.
  17. Dalton. Goldeneye. And skyfall by the sounds of thr leak. Looking forward to it
  18. Bloody hell mate. Best of luck! And to your mum too stevo ofc.
