  1. Sopranos any good? Greatest show ever?

    Comfortably.

    I'd agree and yes I have seen The Wire as well.

    very much this, might have been different if id seen them the other way round but nothing comes close to the sopranos IMO

    I'm watching box sets of the Wire and The Sopranos at the moment and I'd place the Sopranos as the better show (though the Wire isn't half bad...)

  2. Anybody catch the first episode of Campus? I've never taken such an instant liking to a show before, about 2 minutes in I was nearly crying with laughter. Jonty de Wolfe could very well best Garth Marenghi as my favourite comedy character:

    "The feeling of making a grown man cry is not an unpleasant one, and I leave my office with a modest erection."

    "This dream came to me last night, whilst I was deep inside my wife; I rose up like a porpoise, leaping from a river (later, my wife would tell me I swelled to a size she'd never felt before)."

    After seeing the pilot I was keen but it got some poor previews which but the first episode was very good I thought as you'd expect from the creators of Green Wing.

    Not as good as Twenty Twelve though which has been excellent

  3. From the Grand National thread:

    On a related note II guess it's not just me who gets pissed off with people who ride horses on the road? They're never going anywhere, you don't see them riding to the shops, they just get in the way and frown at you when you overtake them Twisted Evil Find yourself a field or bridle path!

  4. I realise it's not as simple as just taking one or the other and there's so many factors to takeinto account but ever since we were first linked with Downing I thought we should go for Johnson instead. But over this season I've totally changed my mind. Johnson has been alright an would do nicely in our team but I think Downing's been superb and is the better option. He's really shown his quality and watching Johnson today, even though he scored he just didn't offer as much as Downing does.

    So on a basic level was it the right decision? I say yes.

    If a mod could add a poll that'd be good.

  5. What's your favourite day of the week and why?

    In the past I'd probably always have gone for Saturday as I would always either be playing hockey or going to the Villa but now I can barely leave the house I reckon I'm probably on my own in going for sunday as there's plenty good sport on tv and my parents are both off work which just makes life easier.

    I'm guessing Saturday is going to win this followed by Friday...

    Oh wait are there no polls in OT anymore? I'm clearly rather slow on the uptake.
