capitanus Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 I watch Minder, The Professionals and The Sweeney in afternoons; is there anything else good on TV nowadays? *insert signature here* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hej Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Been going through the movie channels once a week and recording anything decent on. TCM surprisingly has a much better selection than Sky Movies, which is full of shite. And BT Sport is showing a lot of these "30 for 30" sport documentaries. Never watched any of them, but heard good things about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capitanus Posted April 13, 2020 Author Share Posted April 13, 2020 I've got Sky movies and Netflix as part of my package but never really bothered with them till now. Most of the TV that I end up watching is on free-to-air channels. *insert signature here* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cet Homme Charmant Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I don't really watch much telly, but Better Call Saul is excellent and even better than Breaking Bad, IMO. Jimmy's gradual transformation from Lovable Rouge in Series 1 to out-and-out Sociopath in Series 5 is brilliantly scripted and acted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy's gradual transformation from Lovable Rouge in Series 1 to out-and-out Sociopath in Series 5 is brilliantly scripted and acted. I enjoy Better Call Saul so much more Breaking Bad. Money Heist is also worth a watch, but best seen in original language with subtitles. And Friday Night Dinner is back on Channel 4. "I learned long ago, never to wrestle with a pig.

vikingTON Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Hard to motivate myself to watch an entire film about a stupid jumped up outfit like Leeds but I might give at a whirl during the week on demand. The site is supposed to be a place for the extended 'family' of Morton supporters - having an affinity with people that you don't know, because you share a love of your local football club. It's not supposed to be about point scoring and showing how 'clever' or 'funny' you are, or just being downright rude and offensive to people you don't know, because you can get away with it. Unfortunately, it seems the classic case of people who have little standing/presence in real life, use this forum as a way of making themselves feel as if they are something. It's sad, and I've said that before.. So, having been on Morton forums for about 15 years I guess, I've had enough... well done t*ssers, another Morton supporter driven away.

I would have said it was more about Brian Clough's hatred for Leeds, than it was about Leeds themselves. Give it a try, I'm sure you'll approve. *insert signature here* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RealTonKid Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Chernobyl is compelling viewing Chernobyl is a fantastic watch. It can be quite grim at times, but shows the incredible lengths the Soviet Union went to prevent contamination, as well as misinformation. I was completely hooked when it was shown on Sky Atlantic last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have said it was more about Brian Clough's hatred for Leeds, than it was about Leeds themselves. Give it a try, I'm sure you'll approve. VT viewer verdict: Somehow even Leeds manage to emerge looking not too shabby compared to the utterly repellent central character of Clough. Not so much 'a cunt but a good cunt' like, say, Malcolm Tucker in the Thick of It (and In the Loop) but rather just an utter cunt like Tom Cruise in every Tom Cruise film ever made. Other than that it was a decent film though.
