Saw a programme on Saturday night on BBC 2 called The Gatekeepers. It was a series of interviews with high ranking Shin Bet agents over the last 40 years and their (very insightful) views on current Israeli political and militart strategy.

Is it on iplayer Gallsman??

Slightly off topic but has anyone seen this movie '71 yet?? Set in Belfast I believe.

Think it's on iPlayer - there was a special Newsnight Q&A which I missed following it. It was riveting.

Heard a review of it on Radio and it was positive.  Used ulster actors so no cringeworthy accents.

Set in Belfast but filmed in Northern England towns as Belfast looks too good now.

First two episodes of the new season of the Walking Dead now online.
Just watched them. Very good as always.

New season of Chicago PD started also. Very good as well.
First season of Turn is very good.

Started a new series tonight called Stalker. 3 mins in I was already hooked.
Great opening to a new show.

Must have been some early nudity in that show.

Ole Nidge will be gettin what is coming to him. Time will tell if it can deliver.

With the nature of the show and the unglamorous side of the crimelord scene that it portrays I can't see Nidge surviving.

Warming up nicely. Patrick Ward is developing nicely as a character. Hard to figure out who will be left for the next series.

Think this is the last series so expect few to be standing.  Although I read that there may now be a sixth season also.  God only knows.

I think it was going to be the last series (10-12 episodes) but they were now going for 2 series of 6 episodes each.

Just finished season three of the west wing. Gripped.  Every spare moment is taken up with it.

Alias planned on watching that but then never got round it - just too many series! Started House of Cards recently. Great stuff so far.

Anyone seen or watching The Intruders? Started on BBC2 last night I think it has aired on BBC America already.

First 5 series are all you need to see... goes down hill big time after that but still the best about IMHO
