Not sure I want to watch it

Spotlight: Dog Fighting – Exposed
9pm, BBC TwoThis documentary goes undercover to expose a secretive international network behind a blood sport that forces dogs to tear each other apart. Journalist Patrick Fee reveals an organisation that stretches from Antrim to Amsterdam, featuring dogs that are raised to kill or be killed in fighting pits.
Don't think they'll show anything too graphic Chazz, there'd be too many complaints.

Just started watching Hamz's Hidden Wild Isles on iplayer. It's a four part series and if the first episode is owt to go by it's gonna be great.
 
One Battle After Another.

Best film I've seen this year.

Imagine The Great Lebowski dressed like Arthur Dent blundering his way through various confrontations with Dr Strangelove in a bizarre remake of Taken with a Luke Skywalker / Darth Vader themed twist, set in an America moving rapidly towards Civil War (the 2024 film not the actual American civil war), as the Department of Homeland Security increases its insidious ICE raids and you've probably got a very poor impression of this film.

Nigh on 3 hours and the pace didn't let up once.

That is some write up - will have to check it out
 
Just watched I Swear, the film about the Scottish lad with Tourette’s. The main actor Robert Aramayo is from Hull - he gives a truly stunning performance. Little wonder he got into Julliard at 18 after starting off in Hull Truck

A great film - really enjoyed it.

The 2 documentaries from 1989 and the early 2000s about John Davidson are both on YouTube and worth watching if you enjoy the film. Those and the video of him receiving his MBE from the old Queen at the end just shows how accurate and well produced the film is.




Spunk for milk!
 
Slow Horses - I'm late to the party on this one, but I'm really glad I got there, it's such addictive viewing. I can't believe that one of the terrestrial channels hasn't bought it and brought it to mainstream TV.

Because they can't afford it, streamers have way more money than terrestrial TV and pay way more for the stuff they show.
