    Rob Èdwards gone at Luton

    He doesn`t get called The Dycheosaurus for nothing. Nine men behind the ball, no matter who the opposition is, wingers who double as full backs, full backs who rarely cross the half way line, aimless hoofballs to an isolated striker, hoping for a goal from a set play, throwing the players under...

    Running

    I think it was a Yorkshire thing to be honest, as they tend to be quite " blunt " bunch - I should know I`m married to one. Conversely, the Llangollen Fell race was the polar opposite, despite there being some elite runners there, it was very friendly, with a totally different atmosphere to the...

    Running

    I`ve only done a couple, as my experiences of the fell running community hasn`t been great to be honest - not a very friendly bunch ( I swore I`d never do another race in Yorkshire after one, as there was a lady really struggling in some proper nasty weather on the moors, at the back of the pack...

    Running

    Thanks for that. The one and only time I`ve had to do scrambling was on the race up and down Snowdon. My usual runs are in the Yorkshire Dales, The Cumbrian Fells and forest races of varying gradients dependant on where they are - Delamere will be quite flat, where as ones in the Lakes can...

    Running

    Hello mate, I`m new to the forum, but a massive trail runner, nowhere in your league, but I`ve done lots of races all over Cumbria, North Wales, North Yorks and Lancashire. I`m just about to do my first race of the year next weekend - Montane Delamere Half and then got one race a month booked...

    He was a bit too " cartoon " monster for me, especially with that Leatherman moustache.

    Nosferatu. Visually stunning, with beautiful, but stark cinematography, production and outstanding sets too. Here`s something i thought I`d never say, Nicholas Hoult is outstanding as one of the leads, well supported by Ralph Ineson and a completely over the top Willem Defoe. Bill Skarsgard...

    I`ve read the first book a few times, so having a working knowledge of the plot really helps. I`ve watched both films a few times now and I`m still picking things up every time I watch it again.

    Some of the episodes where 1hr 15 mins long, so I think they squeezed a bit more out of them time wise. Overall I thought it was very well done. They went in a different direction, by concentrating on the people involved in the games, rather than the games themselves, which to me made it more...

    Dune Prophecy. What a let down compared to the films. The cinematography, sets and production are really well done, but the acting from some of the supporting cast is just rank. It`s like they`ve rounded up a load of students from a drama course and told them to get on with it. The story...

    Full of footy tourists, who are only there to buy scarves and have selfies taken.

    Seamlessly links his character, to his character in The Batman. Colin Farrell is outstanding. The ending was a real shocker too and brave too, as normally American audiences don`t like endings like that. Looks like there`s another series in the pipeline too.

    Watched it last night on Netflix and wasn`t expecting much, but it was really good ( for an M. Night film ) It showed that he can do a half decent film, if he`s not trying to be a smart arse.

    Old ( M Night Shyamalan ) Two hours of my life I won`t get back. A group of tourists on an idyllic island, are dropped off on the pathway to a secluded cove, where for some they all start to age rapidly and can`t escape due to the magnetic powers of the rocks causing blackouts every time they...

    He was a real leftfield choice for this role, but he really was outstanding in this.

    Thought Eddy Redmayne was really good, brought a new slant to the Jackal character, flawed and human underneath it all. Lashana Lynch, as Bianca on the other hand, is a very poor actor and they really could`ve got someone better to play her part.

    Ps - if you haven’t seen it, I’d go for this one first - Bone Tomahawk. All I’ll say, is don’t be put off by the slow start 👍

    Just finished a nine parter on FX - Say Nothing. Dramatisation, based on the true events of the IRA bombing campaign in the 70’s. Really good cast, although it’s hard getting your head around the lad who played the smack head Marco in the Responder playing a young Jerry Adams ! Well written...
