    I know I've seen it but have no recollection of what it was about or like.

    I guess that tells you something about it or me.

    Been wanting to get around to watching this for a couple of weeks.

    Very good watch. Always enjoyed this style of documentary.

    Many terrible decisions of the past to reflect on that we are paying for now.

    I think Guy Ritchie made 2 good films which were quite stylistically different and new
    at the time , I don't think he's really done anything decent in 25 years

    his first two films were amazing at the time like you said

    he's been living off those ever since, but most famous people are like that aint they

    that said, his ministry of ungentlemany warfare is a really good watch
    feels like an action movie from the 70s with a great cast

    Guy Ritchie's being sold a little short here, he's got a style that runs through most of his films, but there's some very good films among them.

    Lock, Stock and Snatch were great, the Sherlock Holmes films were good, as was The Gentlemen (the TV versions of Lock, Stock and The Gentlemen were nowhere near as good as the films), the Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare was a good watch as was King Arthur (apart from the terrible Beckham cameo).

    Watched Grenfell: Uncovered on Netflix over the weekend, shocking and very sad. Eric Pickles came across terribly in the inquiry.

    Department Q was a good watch IMHO. Apparently more to come based on the series of books.

    Eight years on and still no one charged or held accountable, shameful.

    He came across terribly IMHO every time I met him/was in the same room as him, which has been a fair few times.

    The only speaker at an event that I’ve ever made a formal complaint about.

    Right now channel 5 show a program about how safe are electric cars. I think they have a +1 channel if you want to watch from the start.

    I've seen a few government ministers speaking at charity conferences, Pickles was the only one who made an overtly political speech, slagging off Labour and making feeble jokes in a speech which he appeared not to have read before he delivered it. Wasn't any surprise to discover he's a terrible human being.
