What have you watched on TV?

[MK Shrimper]

She was very good, very self resilient and relentless, however I never got the impression that she was a team player or easy to like.
Joey came across as he is imo, almost harmless, a wannabe but not very clever.

I never knew about his childhood trauma. I've taken a new view of him to be honest.

Our Lives - 30min documentary on Anthony, 17yr old lad in care and his love of Northern Soul and the community around it. Lovely.

Twas on the BBC last night.

I don't but there is a podcast by a bloke called Tizzy who plays a lot. He's moved into a bit of modern soul these days but the early ones were all Northern Soul.

Tizzy's Eastside Soul Sessions Podcast coming to you from Filey Bay on the gold coast of Yorkshire playing across the board soul & so much more. Also available on: www.northern-clothing.co.uk www.eastsidesoul.co.uk Cheers Tizzy.

Keep a eye out for Northern Soul nights at The Regal in Stanford Le Hope. Really good nights.

 

[MK Shrimper]

Started on This Country - loved it. Apparantly my niece is in one episode so I shall keep an eye out.

Ploughed through series one and two of Carnivale, an HBO offering on Now TV. Very dark, sometimes slow, but addictive.

Saw that documentary on Kraftwerk on France's Arte channel on Friday night.Good programme but I¡d seen it before on Friday night's BBC4 I think.I's the one with Paul Morley (probaby he UK's best pop/rock commenator,being interviewed about the band.

Enjoyed the final couple of episodes of Ordinary People earlier (on playback).

I detect a bit of a theme here

Enjoyed epsodes 5/6 of Normal People people last night.Frankly I don't see what the fuss about the soft focus sex is all about.

It's coming to something though, when even the BBC's own anouncer says that she's seen the whole series already on iplayer and recommends everyone else to do the same.

Enjoyed BBC4's trbute to Chas and Dave /Last Orders + Pulp/Common people earlier.

Yes I enjoyed the whole series (apart from the episodes I missed in France).See thread title.But then I enjoyed the book last year too.

The whole series of Ordinary People, Normal People or Common People?

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

The whole series of Ordinary People, Normal People or Common People?

Pedant alert. I believe Sally Rooney's original novel and the TV series was called Normal People.

(FYI.I also enjoyed Robert Redford's Ordinary People and Pulp's Common people).

Really not sure what to make of it.

Tiger King is great. Absolutely nuts, but great.

I'm with @Benfleet A1 on this one. Watched a couple of episodes and then really wished we hadn't. Total toss.
