I was gonna suggest Netflix, and I'm sure it was on there for years, but I did look earlier and think it's not anymore.

Within 5 seconds the missus said she'd seen it but happy to watch again.
After 10 mins I bailed out. Just a documentary with dull folk talking.

It assumed you knew a lot about him before you watched it. Fail.

Did you never watch TV until a few years ago? :D

Even in 625 'SD' days, that wasn't what you got to see. The top lines were for teletext, then they often 'overblanked' the rest.
Even bland can be a type of character :wave:

Don't suppose it would've made the news if they'd died in their sleep or anything, but a gruesome death is always going to.

The Ruskies gave him 2 billion dollars to pay his army.

Daft bugger should have bought a desert island and saved some troops to defend him.

I reckon he was flying home in order to stand precariously close to an open window in a high-rise building.

Place your bets.

1. He was on the plane.
2. He wasn't on the plane.
3. There were no high ranking Wagner people on it.

I'd be a bit surprised if he was dim enough to load up a plane with him and other top Wagner boys and fly across Russia. Even an outfit like BP won't let too many execs get on one civilian flight.

Coincidentally the Bellingcat Russian expert said, in the FT a couple of weeks ago, that either Prigozhin or Putin would be 'out of action' within the calendar year.

It's a funny old world where Prigozhin is considered a celebrity. :D

He’s been in the news a bit more than Cliff Richard and Ginger Spice.

According to the reports, there were two planes. Decoy and 'real'?

If so, a bit of insider trading within Wagner or the airport to know which one to take down.

Only if you're prone to falling to your death from heights.
