Watched it years ago and is honestly some of the best telly I've ever seen. Does make you feel a bit odd liking a bloke capable of what he does. But that's where the title come from I suppose.

Apparently there was a spin off of it aswell mate.

Only thing I'm aware of is the original movie that was the start of the character. The Magician its called and it was low budget, I tried watching it but it looks like it was filmed on the family camcorder in the 90s

Probably explains the "do you know who that was, that was the magician" line

Just finished watching Series 1 of Big Mistakes on Netflix starring and written by Daniel Levy from Schitt’s Creek. Well worth a watch for the comedy and the twists and turns.
 
Been out for ages and I hadn't really got around to watching it but "Say Nothing" on Disney plus is a good watch.

About Northern Ireland, the troubles, the IRA. Enjoying it
 
Second series of Beef is great. Not the same as the first, apart from anything else who it's between and exactly what the beef is shifts from episode to episode rather than being plain from the start. Works just as well but feels different.

I didn't see the first series all the way through stopped watching with 2 episodes left. Just didn't feel it but I know loads raved about it

For what it's worth it's very different to the first series, if you find yourself at a loose end for something to watch.

Loved ER back in the day, so that's a positive for me

same mate. X-Files out the year before, I was in the comp and we were spoiled for telly when you think about it. Now it's hard to get into anything because there's that much on.

Saturday night telly was class back in the day. Always a film on at some mad time "Tremors, tonight on at 7:40 on BBC 1".
