Did anyone see the BBC series, Peaky Blinders? I thought it was very good - possibly the best productions the BBC have done (I don't really watch a lot of BBC, or even tv for that matter!)

Also, I need to get back into Game of Thrones and Boardwalk Empire, and also get on the 'Breaking Bad' hype!

If you get Netflix Jimmy then all the Breaking Bad epsiodes are on there <ok>
 
I watched the new Star Trek film at the weekend. Really ****ing enjoyed it. I liked the first 'new' one, but this was far better. Shatner must look at that lad that plays him (and Nimoy) and think "**** me. He doesn't half look like me when I was younger" <laugh>
 
Watched another episode of The Returned, top quality TV only 2 episodes in and it is brilliant stuff! If it continues to be so good than it's going to be up there with the best TV shows ever.
 
crap i forgot i have a copy of the star trek movie.... i must actually watch it.

whats the "returned" and where is it on?

It was on Channel 4 I think can't use a search engine at the moment so it should be available on 4OD. It's a supernatural drama about people who just turn up again after they have been dead for years.
 
Is this it luv?

I like paranormal/supernatural stuff


"The fabulously intriguing French TV Series as seen on Channel 4 - The Returned is a unique, stylish and powerful supernatural drama. It follows the residents of a small French alpine town as they come to terms with a series of mysterious and unbelievable occurrences. As a small group of unknowingly deceased men, women and children return from the dead and attempt to re-join the family and friends they left behind years before, the town begins to experience a series of chilling local murders&#8230;. Beautifully filmed, expertly plotted, and featuring superbly believable performances and an unforgettably atmospheric soundtrack by cult Scottish group Mogwai, The Returned is the most original and enthralling series in years."
 
Watched World War Z and expected better things, in fact I thought it would be a lot better

The best films to do that subject are 28 days later and 28 weeks later, very tense and interesting and World War Z wasnt a patch on these

Yes and it is on Channel 4 so 4OD will have it.

Mogwai doing the music as an added extra.

The first one was a proper ****ing let down The sequel was far better.

Really? I thought both were cracking films. Hoping they do a third but not heard anything on it
