Deadloch, Australian murder comedy drama. Almost binned it after episode one but glad I stuck with it, very entertaining and very sweary.

Certainly doesn’t paint an attractive picture of your normal straight Aussie male

Yeah was really good.  It definitely improved as the season went on .  

This traitor was at my local bar in Macclesfield today.  Shame I didn't know in time or have any rotten fruit.

Still, there's always the Trains and Courts and Airports and Council services and...oh!

The policy of redistributing wealth from the poor to the rich/ corrupt has been going well though.  That's one area they've excelled in!

Disenchantment finally ended 

I really should have given up on it after a few episodes but it does have a few redeeming moments 

but thank Christ I don’t have to sit through a season 6 

It's no Simpsons/ Futurama. But it's been okay.  Not watched the new season yet.

What I know about Scott Mills is that he took over the afternoon slot on Radio 2. I have listened maybe 3 times, when travelling in a car and needing traffic news on. From what I can gather he was very popular on Radio 1 but as he is now in his late 60s he moved across to Radio 2. 

He's 50.

Obviously Luis Rubiales has been playing too much Atari! 

A shot in the dark (1964) is a work of comedy genius. 

Peter Sellers at his best as Clouseau

I thought it was great fun Dem. Absolutely daft as a brush but very entertaining. 

Ditto. Saw it with my daughter on ScreenX a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed it for what it was.

Presenter chris hughes was told his comment was not "appropriate" by bbc chiefs when he said to Australian bowler  maitlan brown the following comment was "your a little barbie yourself with your blue eyes"

What the hells wrong with that? 

 

Is that you, Andrew?

That's some tempo stage by Jonas Vingegaard

Absolutely blew the field apart.  Pog actually did a really decent ride.  It was just that VinGoGo was on fire.  

Should make tomorrow's stage interesting.  Pog will have to attack again and again.

Thats who the tories want though, they want people who will look at Greg Hands tweets and accept it at face value, they want the people who are not prepared to fact check, have critical thought or know its a joke, they want them, as they are the ones that will say, they are as bad as each other and they might as well put their X next to a tory. 

Are you suggesting Dem hasn't done his research?!

We're just into season 2 now. It's absolutely brilliant. And a lot funnier than I'd expected.

It's definitely at It's best when it's taking the pee out of itself. 

Yep.  Been a great TDF so far, with the top 2 separated by just 10 seconds with 1 week to go. 

A race full of incident, breakaways, crashes etc..

No way there's not still drugs in this game. Some of them knock off this little cycle, then do the La Vuelta a couple of weeks later.

I think one year the same guy won them both, no chance this happens without some hidden narcotics.

There's always that suspicion with the physical exploits of some of these boys. Some of what they can do seems almost superhuman.

Perfectly timed attack by Lafay at the finish of stage 2 

WVA won't have been happy with vingogo's lack of contribution at the run in there.  He's gonna need WVA's help in this tour ...

Yeah that was unexpected! Thought it might be a stage for wout van aert or van der poul or even pidcock.  

The Yates boys both look in top form.  

Shame about Enric Mas and Carapaz though.

Christ. I didn't know he was that old. Thought he was still working to be honest. 

2023 at a rough estimate. And yes, still 'working' for some
