LT42

I’ve been really impressed with Adolescence, the camerawork is incredibly well done. Fair play to the creators, they deserve all the plaudits they’ll surely receive. Grim storyline but a refreshing take on acting and production. 2 episodes to go. I don’t think there’s any debate around Graham being in the very top tier nowadays.

Episode 3 (I think), the one on one with the psychologist, is probably the most gruelling and intense hour of TV I’ve experienced since Millsy invited me round to watch ‘Animal Farm’.

alistair Support Liverpool football club… but hate everything and everyone from the city? You are an absolute Tory fruit loop. Proper Fabricant’s hair piece.

alistair

Amps you don’t have to appreciate chippy, self loathing, pond life like you to support the football club.

Amps

alistair Well done on not conflating two things… that shows an appreciation of subtlety and nuance… possibly even imagination… at this rate you might grow some emotions, like a real boy!

rosscoe I thought the first season was maybe a bit better, but they’re different and both exceptional. I enjoyed the slow fuse of season 3.

Dubman

Watched the first 4 episodes of Mobland . Which stars Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan & Helen Mirren. It’s very hard to get past the awful Irish accents from Helen Mirren & Brosnan even though he’s Irish. Tom Hardy thinks he’s Ray Winston. No spoilers but I rate it just above Gangs of London in terms of acting and storyline

SM001

Dubman Irish accents from Irish actors always sound forced.

I don’t know what part of Ireland he comes from or maybe he’s just lost his home accent but it just sounds so forced

SM001

Dubman He was in Drogheda but grew up in Meath. He’s never had much of accent anyway.

Finally got around to watching the first episode of “The Studio”… good shit, great cameo from Marty Scorsese.

Started the original Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy-miniseries. Jesus christ how miserable the UK looked in the 70s. Loving it.

Where can one watch this?

Homegrove It’s brilliant. Perfect adaptation IMO. Alec Guinness is sensational in it. Make sure you watch the final part of the Karla trilogy - Smiley’s People afterwards…

Smallman1 Amazon Prime.

Your friends and neighbours with John Hamm has been superb so far. His coolest role since Don Draper. Love the Maserati and watches.

alistair great TV this. Season 2 incoming 👍

Dubman
