stlucifer Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 (edited) Tonight, BBC1, 9:00pm, Highlands: Wild Heart of Scotland. Some of the scenes look stunning. Too often our country is overlooked, this looks like being a great advert for Scotland. I agree. My new job means I travel anywhere north of the Clyde all around our fantastic Lochs and the views are spectacular. So much so that I intend to carry my camera to capture some of it over the summer months. Edited May 13, 2016 by stlucifer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud the Baker Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 I see C5 have completed another two Jack Taylor movies starring Iain Glen. Alcoholic ex-cop turned PI who specializes in lost causes - not original but enjoyable all the same. Can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every game played at Wembley. The final effectively decided by a dodgy decision. Boring fitba' which caused the downfall of width on the pitch for years. Magical my @rse!

stlucifer Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Britain's Got Talent, sometimes not much talent but entertaining, that's what it's all about.................. Although just a massive injustice................IMO. The injustice is that TV companies are peddling this p!sh as entertainment. Cheap option which relies on the base level of human's ability to laugh at others misfortune. The people who gain most are, at best, mediocre talents or, at worst, Simon Cowell=esque.

Bud the Baker Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Probably too late to mention this but The Warlord starring Charlton Heston is showing on Film4 today at 12.35pm. Set in a remote part of Northern France in Norman (pre 1066) times it's a story about the clash in class/culture between a proto-chivalric Heston and the barely Christian villagers he is sent to protect from raiding Vikings. After invoking droit de seigneur (à la Braveheart) Heston is holed up in a castle with two lots of enemies outside and dissent (lead by his brother) inside, will he survive - you'll have to watch to find out. With a fine supporting cast including Richard Boone and Maurice Evans (Dr. Zaius) amongst others it really is a minor gem. I've included the IMDB link even though I don't think the main description is particularly helpful. My only quibble is the well scrubbed aspect of the actors involved especially the villagers. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0059896/?ref_=rvi_tt I'd love to see a remake with Daniel Craig in the main role - it's just made for a actor who can do tough but sensitive.

Bud the Baker Posted May 28, 2016 Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 Saw on Breakfadst TV that HBO are filming Marlon James' novel A Brief History Of Seven Killings about the 1976 assassination attempt on Bob Marley and the aftermath. Great book, if the adaptation is half as good it'll be well worth watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
