Found it a frustrating watch. Started strong but then just didn't really go anywhere.This is one that many people have probably missed due to it`s very odd screening time of 9.30 pm on Saturday night on BBC1.
Waiting For The Out.
It`s truly outstanding and Josh Finnan in the lead is surely one of our brightest young acting talents( the smackhead Marco -The Responder / Gerry Adams - Say Nothing ).
A young idealistic Philosophy teacher, gets a job teaching Philosophy to bored inmates in a Cat B prison.
However his life is slowly being ruined by his crippling OCD and the baggage he`s carrying from his abusive father as a child.
The series follows him, as his life starts to slowly fall apart.
I really can`t over estimate how good this, both the writing, the cast and in particular the performance of Finnan, who reminds me very much of Jack O`Connell when he first emerged.
It`s just about to finish but you can get it on Iplayer.

Clearly I'm in the minority as its got rave reviews everywhere.
Just watched House of Dynamite. Worst ending of any film I have ever watched. Fucking bollocks
Yeah, nice one.Personally I liked the ending and that it was open to interpretation. Feel the film was more about how close the world is to nuclear war at all times, rather than what actually happens.
I can see why it got quite a bit of stick though.
I can't believe they have made a film about him. That documentary is sad but it's so funny when they all get togetherWatched 'I Swear' last night...
'John Davidson: diagnosed with Tourette's syndrome at a young age which alienated him from his peers, he struggled with a condition few people had witnessed.
Brilliant acting by the grown up lead..
Going to take a look at that in the next few weeksJust binge watched "Steal" over two nights, it's very decent and worth checking out (Amazon Prime).
Also recently finished watching "Landman" series two which is very good even if only to bookmark Billy Bob's killer comments in most episodes.
Yep steal is pretty good.Just binge watched "Steal" over two nights, it's very decent and worth checking out (Amazon Prime).

Hijack 2 is great fun
Doesn't make.mucj.sense, but Idris Elba is fab once again and it's all quite tense and gripping.
Silent Hill was genuinely one of the worst movies ive seen in the last 3 years.
Iron Lung tonight, which has got impressive reviews.
I know you are a film fanatic Jim but seriously dont waste your time leaving the house for silent hill. I'd feel id wasted my time turning it on my TV!Thanks, I was toying with Silent Hill, but haven`t read a decent thing about it yet !
Very much looking forward to Iron Lung
That was a genius piece of casting. Already been renewed for season 4.First episode of Season 3 of Shrinking, very good as always. Guest appearance from Michael J Fox too

Been recommended this will give it a hoover the weekendThanks for the prompt for STEAL guys, binge watched it yesterday, really enjoyable, but knackered after staying up to 1.30am to finish it lol
It’s unbelievable. Struggle to choose what the best episode is, every one is a classic. The bit at the end of episode 2 with the divers made me feel like I was about to have a panic attack when I first watched it.I'm struggling to think of a new TV series from the last 10 years I'd put above Chernobyl. Mad that it was written by the same chap who was responsible for the Hangover and Scary Movie sequels.
Good news was in the real thing all those guys survived but not sure for how longIt’s unbelievable. Struggle to choose what the best episode is, every one is a classic. The bit at the end of episode 2 with the divers made me feel like I was about to have a panic attack when I first watched it.
They have it on catch up so presumably its also on NowTV which you can subscribe to short term.Think Sky repeat it fairly regularly
