    I watched it last night quite harrowing, his manipulation of kids and their parents was hard to watch. Nevertheless, worth watching just to see what an absolute bastard this guy is.

    I'm not sure whether it is any good or not as I'm yet to try it, but both my daughter and her husband were raving about it, a Korean series Crash Landing on you, they say it's excellent.

    I watched both episodes last night and thought it was okay, but a bit over-acted, particularly Johnny Rotten.

    Both the first two then, I didn't know if the other episodes were all available as it didn't automatically go on to the third episode, I'll watch some more tonight.

    They might not be to be fair. I saw it was a thing then downloaded all episodes to my media server. If they are on terrestrial in the UK they might be released differently depending on who releases them.

    I tend not to know if TV is BBC, Netflix, HBO, whatever.

    I've watched all of Pistol now, overall I thought it was okay, but I found the Rotten character fairly irritating. They obviously went for someone who could do a half decent job of singing like him and the portrayal was possibly swayed by Jones' opinion of him, but Lydon was far more intelligent and articulate than he appeared in this.

    Also, Rotten and Vicious looked far better at the time, than these two looked. In contrast to Chrissie Hynde and Vivienne Westwood, who were played by far better looking actors. Though as someone who was a punk at the time, I was surprised at how involved Chrissie Hynde was in the Pistols story, I had no idea.

    It was funny looking back and realising that Malcolm McLaren, who was perceived at the time to be an old man taking advantage of the band, was only actually 30.

    Thought the kid who played MM was very good.
    Rotten as you say wasn’t good and seemed more like Gollum

    Watched “ Hustle “ Adam sandler last night, really enjoyed it a slightly different take on a sports movie. We’ll worth a watch, best one of his movies for quite a while …

    Hustle was a decent watch indeed, but you should check out "Uncut gems", with Sandler if you haven't seen it! Quite intense, really enjoyed it

    Here's the trailer, but I'd probably recommend to just watch it without knowing anything about it
    It's on Netflix

    Squid Game coming to life with 456 real players competing for last-person-standing £3.7m prize

    The reality TV game will have the largest cast and largest lump sum cash prize in broadcasting history.

    please log in to view this image


    Squid Game is coming to life - with 456 real players being given the chance to compete for a £3.7m prize.

    The dystopian Korean drama became Netflix's "biggest TV show ever" after being released last year.

    It followed 456 players, all of whom were in deep financial hardship, risking their lives to play a series of deadly children's games.

    The show, in Korean, showed brutal scenes of desperate people fighting to the death to be the final player standing and take the cash.

    The new reality show challenge will not be competing to the death, however!

    It'll never catch on if it's not to the death.
