I woke up laughing this morning.
I was having a dream that in these troubled times, red squirrels were being ground up and used as plant food.
That’ll teach those pesky vegans??

I actually found it deteriorated.
The first few were ludicrous but strangely entertaining in an over the top 'look how crazy we all are shagging and taking drugs' kind of way.
It then got turgid in a middle-classed navel gazing exercise of where it all went wrong.

Once upon a time in Hollywood 5/10
I'm sure it's very clever. I'm sure it's a great homage to Hollywood in the late 60s. Pitt and De Caprio are terrific.
As a piece of entertainment I found it hugely disappointing.

Just finished Normal people tonight.
Superb. The ending makes you want more, and hopefully the author has a 2nd book up her sleeve.

Got bored with nothing to do on weekends so I bought a 2.700m door and pulled the back of the house down.

After Life S2 was marginally better than S1 because at least the main character wasn't entirely an unsympathetic, one dimensional ******** who's only redeeming features were those that is dead wife told us he had, but were never once shown in any of the modern day scenes or flashback videos in which he appeared to be a completely intolerable Bamford.
None of the flashbacks in S2 particularly painted him in the best light either.
The majority of the series is basically just watching Ricky Gervais pull sad faces, talking glumly and saying the things he thinks bereaved/depressed peopee would say, backed up by some sad music and the occasioanal appearance of a dog.
His character, and the supporting characters all even remark on the fact that his behaviour is all largely for show.
There are some good moments, of course, and sometimes all the manipulative, everyman, TV tricks added up to a degree where an emotional response was unavidable, it was like watching Long Lost Family. I think there was only one time across all of the episodes where Gervais and his character seemed to be genuinely three dimesional and relatable (one of the park bench scenes nearer to the end) but it's since been pointed out just how bloody awful the dialogue was ("It's my job as a woman" or something), so scratch that.
It's a 6/10 series. 5/10 for genuine emotional connectivity, 7/10 for comedy.
The psychiatrist character was the most cringeworth and least funny thing I've seen on TV for years though, a complete characetuer without a shred of the humanity that the rest of the show yearned for but never achieved.

Yes, raised this myself in an earlier post.
Biggest ever show for BBC3.
Great performances from the two main protagonists, both of whom are set for stardom.
It is slow but it’s also a beautiful work on the pain of love.

He would probably rebrand himself as Mr D‘Arsey.

Anyone watching Normal people on BBC?
Very very slow and each episode is drawn out, but its compelling viewing.
Superb acting by the 2 main characters.

Crash - the story of Derby's championship season.
With Jake Gyllenhall as Richard Keogh and Rylan Clark Neal as Tom Lawrence.
Stephen Graham stars as Wayne Rooney who single-handedly rescues both from the wreckage of their crumpled cars before leading Derby to the Premier League under the quiet tutelage of Philip Cocu, played by Mark Heap.
I'd watch it.

Anag Ram got a reaction from Eddie in Beer Thread
Wow!
Eddie thanks so very much for taking the time to deliver such a comprehensive response.
I’ve been using Beerwulf for a while now and have enjoyed sampling some really nice beers.
I agree with you on St Feuillien. Tried that in the latest batch. Lovely.
I will certainly give some of the others a go. I am very much in the quality over quantity camp now and don’t mind paying a little extra for that indulgence.
Many thanks again and cheers!
