    Best actor portrayals of a perpetual character

    I know. I really don't see McGann as Doctor Who, it is so different from the series and concept in so many ways. Also missed Peter Cushing off too, from the 60's movies. Niven is a Bond satire/pastiche, so again, not at all Bondish.

    Steve Brown steps down

    I know Mrs. Brown too. Lovely lady and not at all as 'put it about' as AshbyJan's. :)

    Steve Brown steps down

    I know Steve Brown because he used to be involved with Coventry Bears American football team and I know AshbyJan because I am sleeping with his wife. Keep it hush, hush though, as he is not aware. ;)

    Westworld

    Another programme that has missed a trick again. TWD has done it twice and so too did GOT. Now, after all these months, it really doesn't matter who Negan killed and I guess there are many like me who now can't give a rats' arse who got the bat. They try and hold the suspense, but people just...

    Football buzzwords and cliches

    I hate it when commentators say 'that was a world class save,' when it was anything but and the keeper would have been blamed had he not saved it. I don't like the selective use of 'against the run of play ' either. Depends who it is. If it is Leicester or Chelsea, suddenly it becomes classic...

    England v Scotland

    Right, the English face the Scots next month in the world cup qualifying and of course I am always totally rooting for an England victory every time they meet. However, word is, if England win this game, Southgate gets the job permanently. Dilemmas, dilemmas. Can I really bring myself to hope...

    Steve Brown steps down

    I used to know him a little and he's a very hard working, dedicated bloke. Whether people agree or disagree with him, I think we all need to appreciate all the effort he has put in for the SBT.

    Westworld

    I think it is just that for the robots it is programmed and the humans are policed, but yeah, it is factually inaccurate, unless they have somehow made the knives so it is impossible for them to penetrate flesh. With bullets in a gun it is easy, they just bounce off real people, but those...

    Miscasting

    Just in the same way Lazenby ruined it as James Bond , by his acting being so wooden he dare not walk into a furniture store for fear of being sold as a table.

    Westworld

    Yeah, I was surprised as to just how much. I saw it about 15 years ago and still loved it, but watching it again just a few weeks ago, I did find it had dated an awful lot.

    England V Slovenia

    I thought we were just okay in the first half against Malta, but then cluelessly powder puff in the second half.

    My missus feverishly begs me to go out, so I stay in for the most part.

    Bad Company

    I saw the title and thought this was going to be another thread about Sisu.
