It is. He plays both of the main characters in it - Smoke and Stack. Which completely burnt my head out, trying to work out how they did it !

All I`ll say, is be patient with it, as the first hour is all about building and setting the scene for what`s to come and keep a close watch out for the little clues that get dropped along the way (y)

Had to carry on paying to pay his daft missus`s legal fees, with her never ending and always losing battle with Mrs Rooney.

Sinners. My film of the year so far, just so different and brilliant. It is however like two films blended together to make one fantastic film. The first part of the film, is a down and dirty depiction of the American Deep South, with the racism and the poverty, with incredible...

Couple of films this week : The Amateur. ( cinema ) Rami Malek plays a CIA computer nerd, whose girlfriend is murdered by terrorists during a botched bank raid and then goes on a one man vengeance mission to hunt down the terrorists, uncovering unsanctioned CIA black ops, being run by his...

Think there`s every chance, as it`s one of Sky`s all time most watched shows and with so many different threads on the go at the same time, there`s a lot of scope for it to go in different directions with the various polts.

Series 3 - Gangs of London. A vast improvement on the previous two. Better written, much tighter plot, but still has mass shootings and death going on all over London, with pretty much no police action. There`s suspending belief, but when there`s daily gun battles going on, hundreds dying...

Novacaine - cinema. Totally bonkers, almost like an adult version of Home Alone. Jack Quaid plays an unassuming bank manager, who has a neurological condition that means he can`t feel pain. His bank is robbed by a group of vicious bank robbers, who kidnap one of the bank clerks ( his...

Just been catching up with series 5 of What We Do In The Shadows. It`s just gone totally bonkers, with even more off the wall humour than usual. You can see that the cast are having a ball too. On a side issue, I wish they would do another series of Phone Shop.

A Million Ways To Die In The West was very good. Naked Gun shouldn`t be touched though, as no one can play Drebbin like Leslie Neilsen.

What about the goats ??????

Series 2 of Severance was a bit of a let down. Thought it started off very well and then wandered all over the place and then pulled it back with the last episode. I know it`s a head bender and I loved the first series, but I found some episodes difficult to focus on at times.

Spot on. If the kids enjoy it, what`s the problem ? I`ll be taking my little fella, as he loves the story and doesn`t read or care what the critics think :LOL:

Couple of films from over the weekend : Last Breath - cinema. Dramatisation of a documentary of the same name, about a commercial deep sea diving accident off the Scottish coast, where a diver ended up stranded on the sea floor, running out of air and the rescue attempts to save him. Stunning...

Best British low budget of all time and still to this day, remains Paddy Considine`s best film ( imo ) Stayed with me for a long time after watching and even now I`m reluctant to re-watch it.

There was also the outstanding BBC drama from a few years back - Three Girls, about the Rochdale grooming scandal. Recently been repeated on BBC1, so it`ll be on Iplayer. A very very tough watch.

Adolescence ( Netflix ) A stunning and frightening piece of television, that will surely scoop up all the awards too. If you`ve got teenage kids, this will resonate with you and frighten the life out of you. Stephen Graham, who co wrote it, as well as starred in it, truly is a special actor...

Watched - The Gorge ( Apple ) over the weekend. The reviews have been a bit so so, but I really enjoyed. Best described as a scfi, with a bit of horror and a bit of romance. Pretty much a perfect remove the brain and enjoy film. Anna Taylor - Joy as always is a delight to watch and gives a...

If I was going to pick one out of all of them to watch, it`d be Breaking.

Watched a few over the last week. In no particular order : Breaking ( just dropped on Netflix ) John Boyega is sensational in the lead, as the film depicts an ex Gulf War veteran, who takes two bank clerks hostage, as a protest at his treatment by the Army Veterans Association. Based on a...
