Episodes 1-5 of The Scotts are now available bon the BBC iPlayer.

Cutting edge. Hillarious.

Isn't it strange how we can see things so differently. 

I thought the opening episode was utterly embarrassing shite.

I couldn't bring myself to watch another episode. 

Hey ho !!

The Scotts starts tonight on BBC, I watched the pilot about a couple of years ago, and found it hilarious.

Got it set to be recorded, after a "hard" weekend I'll be sleeping when it comes on, 10:30pm. 

Very disappointed in episode 1.

After the pilot, albeit quite a while ago, I was really looking forward to this.

I found the first episode predictable and struggled to maintain anything near comedy.

I'll give episode 2 a go, not sure it's got enough to maintain my interest.

Help on Channel 4
Available on the All 4 player now.

Wow. That was painful, compelling and brilliantly acted.

Very moving. Recommended.
Highly recommended.

Jodie Comer plays a shy new care home worker named Sarah and Stephen Graham 47-year-old Tony who has been diagnosed with Young Onset Alzheimer's...

As Sarah settles into her job, March 2020 arrives!

Seen the trailers, looks good/interesting, although a tad dark in the lighting sense.

I'm a demon for starting stuff and not getting round to finishing them, must try harder.

Another programme i never finished, probably realistic to how it has been but not for me. Was totally bored.

One of my best friends has YOA.
He no longer recognises his wife, kids or my wife and I. Only in his 50s. So so sad.
I’m not sure I can watch this programme without tears rolling down my cheeks.
It's hellish Slash.
So sad.
I've supported a number of people only in their 50s over the years.
So cruel on the whole family. [emoji174]

Without giving any spoilers away, the way the young carer saw the person inside, his remaining abilities and the potential he had made the programme for me.

Watching "Greatest Hits of the 80's" on channel 5, usual cheap production.

They have featured George Michael, Boy George/Culture Club, Prince and Annie Lennox.........................

They also threw in Sade.............................................give me a brek.

A bit part player in the pop world, if incredibly good looking, hardly in the same company as the aforementioned. 

They actually mentioned her in the same breath as Adelle. :lol:

Typical channel 5 trash TV.....................which I'm watching. :blink:

Given that we're playing Hibs tomorrow, I watched Choose Life: Edinburgh's Battle Against AIDS this evening. Fascinating programme, though not exactly cheerful. It's on the BBC iplayer for another 6 days:

Watched "Question of Sport" earlier.

I had read some negative reviews.

IMO I thought it was more than decent, Paddy is good as the main man and the two captains are ok for me. 

Follows a similar format, not too much to dislike TBH. 

Watching Question of Sport again, still think it works.

People seem to right things off just because it's different from the previous people.

It's survived through the years, McCoist was a star, and it will do, IMO, for years to come.

PS wee McGinn is on tonight, definitely got a career after playing, a very bright guy with some humor, TV companies will be queueing up for him.
