Police corruption surely happens... just look at the West Midlands Serious Crime Squad! I don't want to spoil it for anyone else seven years behind. I was just expecting something more realistic and the end of episode 2 I felt it started to go too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was expecting it to be more like The Bill. I believe the first season was filmed in Birmingham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be in luck https://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/proginfo/2019/16/climate-change-the-facts Quote Sir David Attenborough presents and narrates a new landmark film for BBC One. The documentary will provide an urgent look at the science of climate change and the potential solutions to this global threat, combining footage that reveals the already devastating impact of climate change on our planet, with interviews from some of the world’s leading climate scientists. Whether it just focuses on the impact to just humans or includes wildlife I can’t quite tell after a 2 min google. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I think the beeb are doing a series of shows on it with a SDA one thrown in, haven't seen much about it though I really liked human planet and wouldn't mind another series of that too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted April 16, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted April 16, 2019 (edited) Black Summer is absolutely woeful. Terrible television. Zero character development. Have absolutely no idea what motivates anyone. The people make the dumbest decisions ever to the point that it's laughable. I'm on about episode 8 and I don't know a single name of any character. An example of how stupid it is... A guy is getting chased by a zombie, zombies can't open doors, he runs through multiple buildings trying to escape this zombie, every time he runs through a door, instead of closing it, he'll do something stupid like throw a washing basket at the zombie. The whole thing is retarded. Edited April 16, 2019 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 (edited) Good girls on netflix, a bit far fetched in places but good overall, a bit like orange is the new black perfect tv to watch with the other half And Christina Hendricks...god damn Edited April 18, 2019 by villa4europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Finished our planet, the more I watched the less impressed I got, already said about the editing problems, it has repetition problems, whales blowing bubbles to push fish to the surface is shown twice, wandering albatross, nesting cormorants shown twice, lots of stuff that has been shown on PE and BP shown again (dolphins in Florida beating a circle of dirt around fish trapping them for example) It felt like a show made for people who are experiencing this kind of programme for the 1st time, ie an American audience Still got some really cool moments (cliff diving walrus ) but disappointed with it overall 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst thing ever created and I persisted even though it was dreadful from the off and every single episode got worse and worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted April 20, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted April 20, 2019 (edited) Re-watching Boardwalk Empire ATM. Gyp Rosetti is probably my favourite character from any television show ever. Whoever cast Bobby Cannavale for that deserves an award. Edited April 20, 2019 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
