I'd seen him before in Smallville and Blue Mountain State.

He was good at playing the jock in BMS... Thad Castle was a great name!

You do realise your missus is watching it and comparing you to Reacher with his shirt off (which is fairly often!)?!  ;D

It's actually pretty decent. When I started watching I thought it felt like a souped up version of The A Team (look it up kids), but it's much better.

If you can get over your own feelings of physical inferiority and sadness at the shape of her man then it's a good watch...

My wife has all she could ever wish for with me... or so she says 😳😳

New season of Top Boy on Netflix is excellent.  Great show.

Haven't started Viking Valhalla yet, will give it a go.
I liked Last Kingdom alright, but the monologues "Destiny is all" stuff was a bit cringeworthy I thought.
I bit rushed at the end too.

Agreed but how could it have kept going I'd say he'd have been over fifty going by the timelines lol

What did we think of Peaky Blinders?

Great ending to an average enough final season, looking forward to the movie now!

An Watcher

I thought the ending was excellent last night and didn't see what happened.  It was an average enough final season but polly was a big loss to the show

Am I the only one that thinks Peaky Blinders is extremely over-rated?

So then you have no idea if it's overrated or not?

I've tried a few times to get into it. Can't get past series 1. Can't explain why, but it just doesn't grab my attention.

Yeah thought the season as a whole was fairly poor and just a competition to see how many moody slow mo's over melancholic music they could get of Cillian Murphy.

The ending was grand and I'll probably watch the film but it definitely dipped the last few seasons.
