Completely agree. We finished it last night, and like you say, Episode 3 was fantastic viewing. He yawns during the episode, but due to the nature of how they filmed it (which was fantastic btw), they had to roll with it
I saw an interview with Stephen Graham yesterday, where he was talking about it being filmed with a single hand-held camera, there's two cameramen that pass the camera between them and it makes it feel like you're in the room with the actors. I watched episode three last night, it's very intense watching a whole episode effectively filmed in one room, I've got the final one to look forward to tonight.
Each episode was continuously filmed, 1 hour episodes. I think they did it in full 2 times a day, for 7 days, and then picked the best ones. Jeremy Clarkson didn't understand how they went from street level filming to the Drone shot at the end of episode 2 and Netflix released the behind the scenes of how it was done. Fantastically filmed, really different, and it made it an immersive watch
Just watched adolescence and was fed up to see Stephen Grahams Mrs in it again, nothing Against her but that’s about ten things in a row I’ve seen them in together , is it some sort of contractual agreement ; he will only sign up if she can as well joking aside, great acting from the main characters
Binged the whole thing this evening, superb telly. Propoerly harrowing at times mind, don't expect a comedy.
Just finished an old series on bbc iplayer, “ The one that got away “ really enjoyed it, lots of twists and turns. Each episode is around 50mins and 6 in all… worth a watch if you like crime dramas..
Watched it at the end of last week, although I think it’s relatively recent, the usual annoying plot holes but thought it was decent. Just watched Fear with Martin Compston on Amazon Prime, which didn’t have great reviews and also had a fair number of plot holes but the ending was a little more thought provoking than most.
i know this is for new stuff generally, but i was working at home last week so needed something to watch on my own without the Mrs. came across old BBC series, The Accused on my firestick, every week a different story, starting with someone in the dock and you dont know what theyve done and if they are guilty. Jimmy Mcgovern wrote it, and its good. a who's who of British stars in it, some at their height of fame, or some just before they became really famous. one of the best has man of the moment Stephen Graham in , with Sean Bean playing a transvestite. recommend it to anybody who hasnt seen it before.
I'm finally catching up with Band of Brothers. Two episodes in, enjoying it despite my aversion to gory scenes.
Band of Brothers was brilliant, set the bar high, shame neither The Pacific or Masters of the Air were as good.
True. I have the DVD of Band of Brothers and have watched it several times. The Pacific and Masters of the Air are nowhere near as good, but both worth at least one watch.
I watched The Truth vs. Alex Jones last night (Sky Documentaries), the story of the deformation case brought against conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, by the families of the dead children, due to the fallout from his claims that the Sandy Hook school shooting was a hoax. What a disgusting excuse for a human being that bloke is. The **** him.
Agree the way it was filmed was impressive. Same with Boiling Point previously. It's an important topic(s) for sure but am I the only one that was left sort of underwhelmed? I really don't see why many have been saying things like this should be shown in all schools etc.
