    OK, so you've moved my thread along as in 'nothing to see here' to this neck of the woods...fair do's

    Ripper Street?! BBC boobed by canning it because it couldn't compete with I'm A Celebrity on ITV <doh> (where TF is the comparison I ask you!) so they aired the final series on Amazon Prime (saw it and it was fkn excellent though you need to concentrate in this final screening as it's quite complex). Now Beeb is airing it and so your opinion is...?

    Also, Peaky Blinders BBC 2? ****in' 'ell, that's top fkn telly that is! <ok> Love that and most of it is filmed in Liverpool!

    Up your bums if you think I'm going to trawl through 533 pages of this ****e to see if ya've discussed the above already! <hug> <smooch>

    No hero in this then? Do they just fight the police?

    Surely Batman wouldve gone tohelp. You would neversee like X Men and Fantastic4 in the same film as they're in different universes (both Marvel but set in different fictional places). We all know Batman is in Jokers universe as are some of the other villians, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_Squad_(film)

    They'll get some mileage out of this so maybe heroes will come in the sequels

    Looks decent though

    This post just took ages to type ****ing keyboard

    I did finish all of band of brothers yesterday.

    Last two shows.

    The one with the concentration camp in and then the final one which is just all ending up.

    I must say that it has more scope and better action than anything ever on TV. .

    And the cast is amazing.... I looked back watching all 10 and the amount of guys in it is astounding. Fastbender turned up in last 2.... just as an example.

    I thought it was a good ending that they could have left as a genuine end to the show, but on the other hand it certainly has enough about it to do another series as long as it doesn't go into another and another.

    Think I discussed this with you when you had watched about 2 episodes. I'm soooo jealous of people that have yet to see it. The best TV show by a country mile imo.

    A cut above The Sopranos and Breaking Bad etc. (although, they are very good still)

    I'm so sad I've watched it all the way through 6 times now, and I still love it everytime <laugh>


    Favourite characters.....hmmm hard to choose. Omar, Bubbles, Stringer Bell, Bunk....... ****, so many great characters.

    The book is well worth a read to <ok>

    A question guys... Hopefully someone will answer tonight!!

    Gotham is now on Netflix. I'm not too knowledgeable about Marvel characters etc. but I do know the basics. Would this be worth watching?

    I've heard it's very good. What's everyone's thoughts on it?

    Thanks in advance <ok>

    Heard it's ****e to middling lad, i've not bothered with it

    Show me a Hero is another political / social / economic drama but about the building of housing in Yonkers, NY and in a different style to The Wire... think one of the main characters is a councillor/politician... dunno that much about it myself but has got great reviews
