Anyone watch the Wembley thing on Netflix? Makes my blood boil.

Fans trying to get in with fake tickets is sadly very much commonplace these days.

I'm halfway through Ripley and The Tattooist Of Auschwitz.

Really fantastic shows so far.

Thought Ripley was fantastic. I had never actually seen the Matt Damon movie so after finishing the Netflix show, a week later I watched the movie and now I think the show is much better. For one thing I can't stand Paltrow, and also thought Inspector Ravini in the show was much more interesting than the movie and in fact his role/scenes were the highlight for me.

The only criticism I would have about the show vs the movie is that in those days you can see a slight resemblance between Matt Damon and Jude Law, but Andrew Scott looks nothing like the actor playing Dickie in the show. At the same time they frame it well so that no direct physical comparison is really needed.

I did and to be honest, struggled to get to the end. Just made me angrier and angrier for so many different reasons. I suppose my default setting of "I hate anything to do with Engurland" didn`t help.

Watched it last night and the contrast between that coked up mob and our supporters in Paris was night and day.

Mind you bearing in mind the riot started at 8am the Met could have loaded the Mobile Gendarmerie onto Eurostar and had them and their tear gas canisters to Wembley in plenty of time for the kick off.

The fella who was on top of the bus. I'm paraphrasing a bit here, "The photo of me being a c*nt on top of the bus was everywhere. My father saw it and was all proud because he had performed similar c*nt like behaviour on top of things when he was younger. I can't wait to show my grandchildren the photos of me being a c*nt."

He came across as a typical Southern wanker. Pretty harmless but utterly vapid.

The lad from Shropshire wasn’t that bad though.

Oh yeah loved it. I watched the first series when it first came out last year.
I preferred S1 to S2, (both great) hopefully they make lots more.

I will do Kin at some point but will do a few others first.  Maybe Slow Horses s2 or Responder S2

He still trampled on people to storm the gate and didn’t give a shit about breaking into the stadium so he’s as bad as everyone else involved.

It’s a good job Italy won as otherwise there would have been chaos and potentially deaths by the sound of it, with that baying mob outside ready to lead an offensive.

Really good viewing, hopefully they make a third series.

I suppose the fact he wasn’t a gormless Southern wanker from a long line of gormless Southern wankers made me a bit more sympathetic towards him. :D

This is good.Four prison officers are forced to make some major changes in the prison they work in to help save their jobs, but those changes disrupt the fragile power balance among the inmates and turn daily life into a battle for survival. Stars Sofia Grabol. We all know that means it'll be good. ;D

This is about. Tells the story of  Huey P. Newton's escape to Cuba to avoid prosecution for murder with the help of Bert Schneider, the Hollywood producer behind Easy Rider, as well as a few other celebrity radicals. Looks interesting.

Just watched the first episode of the 2024 reboot of ‘Rebus’ on BBC

Really good opener.  Gritty crime drama set in Edinburgh. Very similar to Irving Welsh’s “Crime”.

Rebus and Ray Lennox are very similar characters.

It's quite dark.  I've never read the Rebus books so don't know how accurate the TV characters are.

Ken Stott who played the original Rebus on ITV also plays DI Ray Lennox's (Dougray Scott) boss in 'Crime'

There are so many great Scottish actors out there and the same guys always seem to crop up in major Scottish productions.

Love the Rebus books. Didn't think the ITV show was great but watchable, Ken Stott was better than John Hannah. Looking forward to this one.

Surely that statement is full of contradictions. You say "if" it is true, he has the right to tell it in any way he wants, but surely he can only tell it in a true way, because otherwise the story is not true, in which case by your logic, he is not a victim, and therefore doesn't have the right to tell it how he wants.

I would say a victim has the right to tell their story, especially if the perpetrator has been convicted in court, but only the right to tell the truth, when it involves accusations against other real life people.

“Assuming it is true”, rather than “if” would have been better I guess.  I say this because the woman who came forwards states it wasn’t (although she acted in a way that made me suspect she maybe wasn’t telling the truth). Truth is subjective though and depends on your view point.  Especially artistic truth. What’s truer?his emotions? His memory? It’s hard for me to say.

And to be fair to the chap I’m not sure in his wildest dreams that he could have ever expected his one man stage show to become the number one tv show across the world. Might he have done it differently if he’s known? Maybe, maybe not.

“Assuming it is true”, rather than “if” would have been better I guess.  I say this because the woman who came forwards states it wasn’t (although she acted in a way that made me suspect she maybe wasn’t telling the truth). Truth is subjective though and depends on your view point.  Especially artistic truth. What’s truer?his emotions? His memory? It’s hard for me to say.

And to be fair to the chap I’m not sure in his wildest dreams that he could have ever expected his one man stage show to become the number one tv show across the world. Might he have done it differently if he’s known? Maybe, maybe not.

To clarify, I wasn't really judging the show itself, just your logic.  ;D

Well that’s never going to work.  Fuck me, if anyone is relying on my logic to make sense we’re all fucked.

Is that what you say on parents evening?  ;D
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain
