NG2Ram Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Watched all 6 episodes of “The English Game” straight through on Netflix yesterday. Interesting football drama regarding the introduction of paid professionals in to the game in the late 1800’s. The Rams early rivals Derby St Luke’s even got a look in, although having checked on Wiki the FA Cup game against Darwin That featured in the drama never actually occurred.

Pre internet days, seeing foreign football on tv was a trip into the unknown. I still think he was the greatest. It was a good watch and I enjoyed it mainly. The thing that spoilt it for me was the subtitles. I found it hard watching the footage of him playing and reading the subtitles at the same time. I would have preferred it to have a narrator instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramsbottom Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Finally got round to The Morning Show on App TV, really good show, with some top notch acting. Jennifer Aniston has never been better. After that, The English Game will get a coat of looking at, as well as a couple of episodes of Picard I've got to catch up on, then about 5 episodes of The Mandalorian, and then.......

Stive Pesley Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Been watching Home on 4OD Comedy about a middle class family from Dorking who get back from France and find a Syrian guy hiding in their boot. It's very funny, in the vein of The Detectorists sort of gentle humour. The guy who plays the refugee is great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 With the absence of sport, either live or televised, I've started looking for ways to keep the Memsahib entertained in the evenings and I thought - "I know, proper telly" as opposed to never venturing outside the sports channels. I'd heard that a lot of people we impressed with "Killing Eve" so last night, we fired up iPlayer and gave it a go. First three episodes of Series 1 - blooming excellent. I really enjoyed it. We will watch a few more tonight. ariotofmyown, Mostyn6 and therealhantsram 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killing Eve is indeed excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies if it's a dumb question. The Mandalorian....do I need to have seen something else before watching this, or can I just dive straight in? ramsbottom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ariotofmyown Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Just watched first episode of Giri/Hadj on iplayer. Very good. Watched the Outsider on Nowtv too. Good story and great acting. And the latest series if Curb was glorious. Not watched it for a few years, may have to work through the lot. Pretty good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chester40 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Tiger King... Only in the US... but definitely worth a watch. Nutters the lot of them. Andicis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsnip Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I'm late to the party but I've just binge watched Fleabag and it's a masterpiece! Also Frozen 2 was really good. therealhantsram, ariotofmyown and CWC1983 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the first things I'm gonna do when all this is over is throw a fancy dress party round my gaff, and I'm already sourcing stuff to dress as Joe Exotic. What a legend ?

You gotta play his music at the party “Here Kitty Kitty” is a wonderfully well written melody and the video really should have been up for an Emmy Andicis and Chester40 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamworthram Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Like a few others, just finished Tiger King. Very difficult not to binge watch it which is usually a good sign. Watched the first episode of the new series of Friday Night Dinner. Definitely, in my opinion, a series that has jumped the shark. Now trying to get into the latest series of WestWorld. Finding it hard going. Andicis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
