Sniff banging.
You don't have to give us the full quid back. Just 50p or something.

Haha those 2 imbeciles

Smashed the first 2 seasons of Succession and just finished watching the second episode of season 3. Its a great series, really great... didn't think id make it past the first few episodes given how grim all the characters are but seeing them all constantly screw each over is entertaining .

Do you end up rooting for anyone? Was only able to watch the first couple.

By the end of season 2 I was definitely rooting for someone and i did warm to a few of the characters despite them being pretty dreadful people.

Alma's Not Normal.
Laughed my whatsit off at this. Very crude, but funny nonetheless.
Brilliant performances from the four female characters and in particular Siobhan Finneran.
Absolutely loved it.

Its that rare show where you equally love and hate all the characters. Its very similar to modern family in the way its shot, i wouldn’t be surprised if it was the same crew.

I'll have to wait for season 3 of Succession, I don't have sky anymore. Enjoyed the first 2 seasons though.

Late to the party with this, but four episodes into Caliphate and it`s horribly compulsive viewing.

The writing is first class and the storyline is tragically believable.

A brave TV series, in that the way it portrays some of the hardline Muslims in Sweden and vulnerable / misguided Westerners that ISIS preyed on, must`ve upset quite a few people too.

Curb Your Enthusiasm still standing head and shoulders above any other comedy

watching worlds most wanted, honestly, I get arrested if I fart in the wrong direction and these buggers evade the whole worlds police.

Watched that a while back. Really good series and a real eye opener. You shake your head at some of the decisions made.

BBC has another programme on a few days ago about the storming of the US capital building. On I-player now, another good watch. These docs are worth the license fee as opposed to the majority of the garbage the BBC churns out.

That storming of the Capitol was possibly the most frightening thing I've watched in a long while.

Can Succession be watched on Sky or do you have to subscribe to Amazon or Netflix?

You can buy/rent seasons 1 and 2 on amazon otherwise it's a sky program.

Was thinking about giving Temple a whirl. Has anyone watched it?

 

[dublinbluenose]

If anyone hasn`t watched it yet, BBC 4 are re running - Once Upon a Time in Iraq.

Tough to watch in parts, but a fantastic docu series.

It was a very compelling watch, quite difficult viewing in parts.

Great recommendation
