Follyfoot Posted January 30 VT Supporter Share Posted January 30 1 minute ago, HKP90 said: Did he though? apparently when asked about his accent he said: "I have a strange accent myself, it's half English and half American, and everybody, my entire life, has thought I was Australian. "I have a lot of family in Melbourne – I came to Melbourne the first time when I was two years old and spent six weeks there, so I've been coming to Australia all my life." That might explain why he never sounds like a human being from a place. No mate it was abysmal, was being a tad sarcastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 7 hours ago, TheMelvillan said: Just finished season 1 of Reacher Really enjoyable but my god do you have to suspend an incredible amount of belief. The bit where they had to find some dude who'd been in hiding for a week so they gave Reacher a map and he narrowed the search down to the very motel room the dude was hiding out in - aye righto Its so so dumb. Cant wait to start season 2 Season 2 is more unbelievable! Good fun though. He's much bigger than he was in season 1. Like a monster now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've paused it to ask a question- I've noticed that the police siren sound in this show sounds like American police sirens- the long, drawn out "wooooo-OOOOOOOOO-oooooooooo", and not the usual U.K. "NEH-noo-NEH-noo" sound. Are U.K. police sirens in new patrol vehicles getting outfitted with the American style siren tone? I thought Bodies was OK, not great, but probably 7/10. Now you mention it, I hadn't really thought about the siren thing. I'll have a listen this evening, there are sure to be a few going past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His natural accent must be bad if @HKP90 thinks he’s Welsh Tbf I sometimes think the Geordies with softer accents (or at least use proper English words) are Welsh. Lyndsey Hipgrave on TNT Sports is one that I thought is Welsh and there's one on Sky Sports News as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most obvious realization of "Hollywood" casting a pretty boy to please a demographic. Anything he's in renders it unwatchable for me. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veloman Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Not sure if this counts as "A good TV show" but did anyone watch the programe about the 1984 miners strike. If so , what thoughts - with hindsight ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 I thought I would watch Reacher as I like a brainless action romp. The first episode lived up to that description so that will fill the next few weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
