Mandalorian series 2 absolutely smashed it? The story was a pretty simple.one, as were the original films. And that's part of what makes them great. The latest offerings tried to go down too many rabbit homes and lost some shine for me.
For Black Mirror fans, Charlie Brooker and Annabel Jones have done a mockumentary called Death To 2020. Good cast, Hugh Grant and Samuel L Jackson involved, it's now on Netflix.
Love Black Mirror so was excited to watch this last night. The bad news; it's absolutely terrible. I did laugh out loud twice but generally it wasn't particularly good and to be honest I don't understand why they bothered.
Watched Apollo 11 on Sky Documentary channel last night.
It’s an incredible documentary with some previously unseen footage and a very immersive soundtrack. Rather than using a narrator - the story is mainly told using ‘as live’ audio from the astronauts or Mission Control.
I’d say it’s a must see for anyone with an interest in the subject.
Not new of course but watched again the Curb episode with the chef with Tourette’s. I had almost forgotten how good the ending is topped off by Susie’s “ car wash ****! “. Wonderful!
Spiral is back tonight (2/1/21) .. though the Paris flics must be near retirement now ((:>)
Oof, thanks for the heads-up, I'm sure @bolloxbolder said the 4th Jan.
Aaaand my satellite dish is struggling to pick up BBC4 because of the weather. Aaaaargh! Bloody VPN better work!
enjoy
VPN just about held up. Usual Spiral thing, slowish start, the new viewer might wonder what all the fuss is about. They’ve introduced another femme fatale too, as if Audrey Fleurot wasn’t enough to cope with !
I see that it repeats Wednesday midnight, if anyone needs to re-set their recorders.

Can't believe we missed this when it was first shown !
Absolutely loving it , especially the very dishy lead Frenchman.

Looking forward to The Serpent on New year's day.
They love a zoom camera shot!
Man like mobeen. Very, very funny
Wish I had seen the whole series when originally aired
It really is.
First seven episodes are brilliant, tails off a bit towards the end, the ending itself though!!... BRING ON SEASON FOUR!!!!!!!
JISM!
