Liked Kin so far but Gillen is seriously miscast in that role and the fella who plays Jimmy is also a poor choice for that role.

Never got the hype about Gillen not a fan at all have never thought he was good. Even Littlefinger a role which actually suited his style I still couldn't get over the voice he used!

Powerful stuff on Channel 4 there brilliantly acted harrowing tale of a Care home during the pandemic.

Well worth a watch!!

Aye this was a difficult watch. The wife was in tears very early on.  I didnt like the direction it took at the end but sure, cant have everything.

What was the craic with that show on BBC One Hundred Years of Union and Paddy Kielty applauding at a bonfire as the tricolour burned? I know he said after it that he didnt agree with the burning of the flag but why stand and applaud?

Would you applaud the burning of the Union Jack? Or have done in the past?

As for the show Help, that scene her on her own at night in the place was horrible.

Though I liked the way she brought the killing Eve character in for a split second when driving off with Tony

The point is more that he clearly disagrees with it but applauded it at the same time.  Can only assume he felt pressure in the situation.

Has anyone watched the first 2 episodes of 'Kin'

What's the thoughts?

Quite enjoyed the 1st episode but thought the 2nd drifted off into same old clichéd territory and as someone else said what's the story with the fecking beards...

Probably inspired by other evil beard groups, like the Taliban or Tyrone.

Is there a difference between Taliban and Tyrone?   (hypothetical  Q !!)

I didn't take to Raw and I won't watch this incarnate. I don't mind Gillen, he's done well ever since he got that part in The Wire s.5 (Carcetti?) but with him as a cliched gurrier, I tend to yawn.

I liked the Michael Schumacher documentary on Netflix that was made with his family and various drivers and other protagonists from his career.

From the ending, it would seem he's never recovered much of his capabilities following the skiing accident.

Aside from the sadness of how he ended up, its an enjoyable watch and a great trip down memory lane, at least for me, for a period when I loved Formula 1. Lost touch with it after I moved to the states and Schumacher left Ferrari.

Although it does gloss over, slightly, what a single-minded, arrogant p***k Schumacher seemed to be at times. :)

A familiar trait a lot of the all time greats share.

Must give it a watch. Just a 1 off documentary?

Anyone watch Sex Education on Netflix? I think it's hilarious.
Gillian Anderson and Asa Butterfield the main actors. Very very funny.

Late to the party, but another vote for The White Lotus here. Loved it.

Third season of What We Do in the Shadows airing at the minute, with a fourth to follow. Great show too.
Doc would listen to any kind of nonsense and change it for you to a kind of wisdom.

Finally finished it - thought it was shite - kept waiting for it to take off.

And the music from it did my head in
