    Well, I thought it was clearly tongue-in-cheek, but you seem to think I'd call a guy Sullen Hamburger and then proceed to write something serious. I'll try some emojis for you next time.
    Although having said that, it actually his job to let the passengers off first, he's trained to do that. He'd have been in a lot of trouble if he'd legged it first.
    Remember the Italian Costa Cruise ship captain who not only sunk his ship, but after hitting whatever it was, nipped off the boat sharpish 7 or 8 years ago? He got over 15 years largely because he left the ship in front of the passengers.
    @Hathersage Ram ouch, that hurts.

    With @Davidposting his thread earlier, thought I’d bump this. Some of you might be uncomfortable with revealing any issues you are experiencing. 
     
    it was roughly this time of year when i started this thread. 
     
    Two massive things that I have learned since;
    1- being aware something isn’t right is admitting to yourself, you’re on the path to feeling better.
    2- however bad you’re feeling, you’re definitely not the only one feeling that way. 
     
    Ive been told by many posters that just reading this thread gave them hope and help. 
     
    take care

    Control with studs means you're facing forwards and can easily go left or right. Use your instep and you're facing sideways and options are immediately reduced.

    Just finished watching The Spy on Netflix. 
    Very good and refreshing to see Sacha Baron Cohen playing a serious role.

    I remember watching Feynman explain that and reel off the name of a bird (forget which ) no in a list of different languages during a 2-part interview way back when - Horizon maybe?
    'Surely You're Joking Mr Feynman' is one of my favorite autobiographies of all time. I know very little about physics, but he was such an amazing character. Such a shame he never got to take that last trip.

    We have one episode to watch and I'm giving it an Igor Stimac/10.

    Yeh BBT is chilling. The scene where Colin Hanks let him go was brilliant. I'm damn sure cops do do things like that when they fear for their own safety. 
    Freemans accent sounded ridiculous. But so does everyone's from that part of the country so I'm not so sure it was bad per se. It's a very weird accent and I don't think I even knew it existed till I moved here.

    Finished series 1 of the Fargo anthology having got about 4 episodes in 3 or 4 years ago. Don't know why I abandoned it. Superb. Billy Bob Thornton is absolutely captivating as a psycho hitman and the supporting cast are all great once you get past Martin Freeman's accent. 
    I don't know who directed the episodes, but they've got the Coen Brothers touches nailed.
    Series 2 took an episode and a half to get adjusted to but well into that now.

    Yeah I really liked Informer. Felt pretty realistic for most of it too.

    Finished the second season of Homecoming on Amazon Prime.
    A bit like the first season, pretty good without hitting the heights.
    Also there are only 7 episodes and they're not much more than half an hour each.
    Started Informer that I was surprised being a BBC made cop/terrorist thriller series and set in London I hadn't heard of.
    But looks like it wasn't on over here until Prime picked it up.
    Two episodes in and very good.
    Anybody seen it?

    Or maybe they are scared and confused by this entire situation and live alone with nobody to look after them?
    Just a radical commie thought brought about by being brought up my lesbian male parents who used to knit yogurt, hug snakes and prayed twice a day facing Greenham Common.

    a friend of mine saw Joy Division in Derby in there second to last gig and got Ian Curtis to put his moniker on his ticket stub . Probably about the last one he signed, as he was gone a few week later.  He also saw New Order at the Blue Note but was far less impressed.
    Certainly worth a watch and it's pretty accurate as it was developed for screen by there photographer Anton Corbjin. Best person in it is Tony Kebbell as there promoter.  He was in that film they made in Matlock dead mans shoes.

    I dunno about being better than Lock, Stock, but certainly better than Snatch for me.
    I had no idea Grant was even in at and I turned the to the missus about 30 minutes in and said 'Who is that, I'm sure I know him'
    She responded 'It's Hew Grant you thick twit with an A'

    I watched this after your recommendation. Absolutely loved it. Better than Lock Stock for me. Very slick, stylish film, Guy Ritchie’s best. Probably the best film I’ve seen this year!
