Box Sets, Mini series, films, etc.

Been watching Andor on Disney+.

I like the story and love the 80s Sci fi music, but the best bit is playing "spot the British filming location".

So far I've got Canary Wharf, the Scottish Highlands, the McLaren Technical Centre and the Barbican Centre

It's a REALLY slow burner.

The actual heist episode was alright.

[Mr. Dazzle]

Reminds me of Blade Runner.

Which probably isn't an accident.

Watched LAND last night. If you've ever seen The Straight Story, its a bit like that. Not much happens and you're not sure why you watched it, yet you kind of enjoyed it?

We watched My Massive Cock on catch-up last night - https://www.channel4.com/programmes/my-massive

Didn't do much for me but kept the missus quiet for an hour....

The Lost City. Typical multiple A lister cast which equates to a crap film. Don't bother.



A Grand Seduction. Irish farce and funny if you liekk that sort of thing.



Last Seen Alive. Not a typical Gerard Butler gorefest, just slightly ridiculous, but I kinda enjoyed it?

Started watching The Devil's Hour on Prime. It's all a bit 'I see dead people' so far but Peter Capaldi is scary enough to keep people awake at night.

Interesting enough to make me plan to watch Ep. 2

Anyone else watching The Peripheral on Prime based on the William Gibson book.

Liking it so far.

Not read it but was a big fan of his earlier books.

Hadn't noticed it but will definitely be giving it a go.

Nope, but it's been added to my watch list.
Currently I'm taking a break from Star Wars and binging Star Trek Discovery

Rogue sas 6 parter. Iplayer, Brilliant.

I watched Jojo Rabbit yesterday on Disney+.

It was quite clever and funny, until about half an hour from the end when it got a bit depressing and dark.

Taika Waititi plays a young German boy's imaginary friend... Hitler. You kinda need to see it, Sam Rockwell is great in it too.

The Watcher (series on Netflix)

Decently acted, strongly casted, quality production.
Engaging enough to watch all 8(?) episodes.
My missus really liked it, I found it all a bit 'tales of the unexpected', but then I'm a stickler for a neat ending.

I was hooked at the start then it just got more and more ridiculous as it went on. And the ending...

Another one we were recommended was You. Sometimes you have to give them the first episode, but I struggled. Got 20 minutes into the second episode and bailed. Too many mini series, box set things at the mo...

I confess to getting into Below Decks - Meditteranean...

Yeah I agree the plot for Watcher became increasingly implausible. And as for You, too many sideplots and a bit girly, why do I care about all the sodding girly characters relationship issues?, reminded me of sex and the city but with an overtone of serial killer. Weird. Yeah, bailed on it.

Does anyone else fancy that hard faced bitch from the ISB on Andor?



Gotta love a good baddie!

There are better pictures of her! She looks quite pleasant IRL.

I don't want IRL, I want the uniformed space nazi!

I did enjoy her nose curling snarl of "I swear I'll have you in a cage..." in the last episode.

I think Andor is by far the best of these Star Wars TV series. Its not just 'splosions and shit.

Showing your age there ! My old man had a thing for her, personally I was more Wilma Deering or Princess Ardala
