Prolly apocryphal, but the story is that when writing his autobiography he placed an ad asking if anyone could tell him of his whereabouts from 1968-1981  razz:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-11621076 (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-11621076)


Quote
He claims that during the notorious Redlands raid of 1967, he allowed the police into his home in Sussex because he was under the apprehension, as a result of copious quantities of LSD, that the officers were dwarves "wearing dark blue, with shiny bits and helmets".

If I remember right, I was on duty and unsurprisingly, it was a busy night and day. We had two x Britsh Telecom vans blew over three times on the M275, as soon as they were upright, the next gust blew them over again. These were just two of  many incidents we had that day. It was the night of the great wind  ;D

Blondness is supposed to indicate sun bleached!

You really have to learn how Hollywood werks in Black and White.

It's all done by visual/verbal metaphors like.

WESTERNS
Black Hat = Baddy
White hat = Goody
Dirty Hat = Drunk
Bowler Hat = Salesman or Doctor

WAR FILMS
German Accent = Nazi
German with English Accent = Gestapo or anti Nazi (depending on if his name appears above or below the title)
French Accent = Liable to be the villain or traitor (See also Greek or Italian) but may be on "our side" .... last reel will reveal all about his allegiances. He will get shot either way.
Cockney Accent = Chirpy British Squaddy/Matelot, May be a bit of a lad but will come good in the end.
Eton Accent = Decent Chap, Officer, Bit set in his ways but will follow orders.
Middle and Upper Class accent with Moustache = RAF Officer
Scottish Accent = Engineering Officer ("She cannae tak any more Captain")
Glaswegian Accent = Sean Connery playing any part irrespective of the character's alleged origins.
American Accent = Hero

It was fairly awful what happened to him but tbh he seems intent on doing himself some serious injury at some point in his life.

Reality Location Shows


Ok so THE most popular one at the moment is The Only Way is Essex . You may or may not be aware of this programme but essentially follows the lives of a 'real' group of people in Essex that spend all their time getting spray tanned , vajazzled and clubbing .

It would appear there are now other regional variations to follow

Made in Chelsea - For all those TV viewers out there who are sick and tired of the perma-tanned, vajazzled antics of The Only Way Is Essex stars, this may be a welcome departure.

E4 has commissioned a new reality series to rival the ITV2 cult hit, based on the lives of the champagne-swilling heirs and heiresses of the Chelsea social set.

The show will follow the twenty-something residents of London's most exclusive postcodes and reveal the cat fights, rivalries and love lives behind the designer labels and blue-blood family names.


Then there is to be Geordie Shore - the glamorous city of Newcastle becomes the latest stomping ground for this gang of tanned and buffed individuals



Talk about beating a format to death  noooo:

Utterly staggering... Followed (first part) a group of friends from 3 Platoon, 1 Royal Anglian, who were sent to Helmand province in 2007 and filmed on a helmet camera by the platoon's sergeant...

When the Japanese ambassador to Britain witnessed chef Rick Stein preparing sushi onboard a boat off the Cornish coast, to say he was not terribly impressed is putting it mildly. However, this sparked off an idea - that Rick should embark on a culinary voyage of discovery to the ultimate seafood lovers' destination, Japan. On his return he promised to create a banquet fit for an ambassador and his friends. So, will he be able to deliver?

A feast for cineastes in this Film Music Prom in which conductor Keith Lockhart promises "a serious look at some truly great scores, with a focus on the great British composers". So there's a suite by William Walton from Laurence Olivier's Henry V, and in tribute to John Barry, who died in January, a ten-minute James Bond medley and the love theme from Out of Africa. Hollywood gets a look in, too, with composers John Williams (Star Wars, Schindler's List, Harry Potter) and Bernard Herrmann (Citizen Kane, North by Northwest and Psycho; sadly no Vertigo). And hankies at the ready for Ennio Morricone's lachrymose Cinema Paradiso theme.

"Peter Cook once said: 'The only time I have disliked David Frost is the period when he became inflated to an outrageous degree.'

And from Ned Sherrin:

'David always learns from his mistakes without ever actually admitting that he's made any'.

I also like this quote about Frost taken from Time Magazine May 9th 1977

Quote
It has been jocularly rumored in Britain that David Paradine Frost, now 38, aims to be Prime Minister by his 50th birthday. "Not so," swears Producer-Director Ned Sherrin, who gave Frost his first big job on TV. "David would quite like to be Prime Minister. And the Queen. And the Archbishop of Canterbury. But being only one would limit him a bit."

Yes, BM, that UK accent odyssey was a weak moment in a fairly reasonable episode. The problem  is that it's such a truly vast subject and selecting the illuminating and entertaining aspects fraught with difficulty. Ian McMillan's accent trip around the Yorks railway map was far better!  lol:

I'll continue to watch it because it's something I love and am fascinated by.  When I was a youth I recall having a conversation with a provençale gardener about a price for something. We were talking about 70 - 90 Francs... in his words "environg septante a nonante francs". This was pure Provençale  cloud9:

Post by: Snoopy on November 28, 2011, 05:12:41 PM
Me too .... It was a birthday present when I was a nipper ..... apparently he wrote it in 1950.
Wiki says:
Quote
Brickhill was born in Melbourne and educated at North Sydney Boys High School. Afterwards, he worked as a journalist.

During World War II he joined the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). Under the Empire Air Training Scheme, Brickhill undertook advanced training as a fighter pilot in Canada and the United Kingdom, before being assigned to No. 92 Squadron RAF, a Spitfire unit with the Desert Air Force. In 1943, he was shot down over Tunisia and became a prisoner of war.

While imprisoned at Stalag Luft III, in Germany, Brickhill was involved in an elaborate mass escape attempt. He did not take part in tunnelling or the escape itself, due to claustrophobia.

After the war, Brickhill wrote the first major account of the escape in The Great Escape (1950), bringing the incident to a wide public attention. He went on to write two other best-selling war books: The Dam Busters, the story of Operation Chastise and the destruction of dams in the Ruhr valley by No. 617 Squadron RAF, and Reach for the Sky, the story of Battle of Britain ace Douglas Bader.

Brickhill died in 1991, aged 74.

It is totally awesome!  eeek:

Quote
Period comedy drama. Horatio Fisk is a cantankerous old man who refuses to grieve over the death of his son in the Boer War. His surviving son tries to work out why, but is defeated until he meets Dean Spanley - a man who may have had a previous life connected to the Fisk family. Through a surreal exploration of spiritualism, the son comes to understand his father's background. Adapted from the novella by Lord Dunsany.

Quote from: Amazon
I was taken to see this film by a friend. I went with misgivings and the expectation of being thoroughly bored. The opening ten minutes did nothing to allay those fears: the action was slow, of no apparent interest or dramatic impact, and seemed to be going nowhere. But little by little this opening sense of tedium and repression takes on a meaning; the four-square plot becomes increasingly eccentric; the humour builds; and soon the film is producing some delightfully quirky entertainment, helped by great acting and characterisation from the small cast. I was completely captivated. Then, unexpectedly, from out of this quirkyness emerges a very poignant and touching little drama. Ultimately the film makes a powerful statement about what is important in our lives and relationships - it makes us feel good about what it means to be human.

Dean Spanley is based on a short story by Lord Dunsany and as with most short stories, the plot turns on circumstances which create a single but profound change -in this case, in the inner life of a character. We are not used to this kind of plot structure in the cinema - but, here at least, it works beautifully.

Peter O'Toole is magnificent. His watery eyes and far-off look are perfect for the role and dominate the screen whenever he is in shot. His eccentric and walled-up character is wholly convincing, touching and entertaining. Sam Neil, Jeremy Northam and the rest of the cast are excellent too.

I guess if you demand plenty of action or complex plot lines, this film will not appeal. If, on the other hand, you like quirky, off-beat themes or films which allow a personal drama to quietly unfold, then go for it. I loved it.

No longer available  whistle: , but I did watch about half of it when it was aired... the last half, and good it was too.

Meanwhile, just to maintain the diet of Scandinavian, tension filled dramas after Wallander, The Killing and The Killing II we are offered Borgen.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/8998115/Borgen-BBC-Four-review.html (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/8998115/Borgen-BBC-Four-review.html)

I agree mostly with the review, less knitwear (  ;D ) than the Killing and no murders as yet but nevertheless tight and full of intrigue.
One thing's a pain however; the subtitles are in white against the filmed image, which mostly work but when the image is light they're illegible.

A seasonal digression... Ab Fab's return special was weak, but the gem IMHO was the inclusion of Edina's dream and Sarah Lund looking for clues  ;D

Contained loads of repeated graphics, loads of stuff not relevant to the show and at 50 minutes a repeat of the start of the show (and the point of it) in case you had forgotten...

Well, did anybody else see it?  As some critics and other unpaid commentators have noted it was full of anachronistic references, cultural, political and musical and the younger versions of the housemates were pretty much embarrassingly stereotypical.  Why haven't we got an smiley for thumbs down, eh?

I'll probably give it another go to see if it develops any better; the older versions of the housemates have greater credibility potential  rubschin:

'Spect you'll be watching White Heat later ...

Quote
The dour house-sharers of Paula Milne’s over-earnest social tapestry drama pout and mope their way through 1979. You would think that, just once, such a group of young people might have some fun, even amid all the self-examination.
But no. Admittedly in this episode there’s a drunken wedding reception where everyone dances to Disco Inferno, but even that ends badly.

The dour house-sharers of Paula Milne’s over-earnest social tapestry drama pout and mope their way through 1979. You would think that, just once, such a group of young people might have some fun, even amid all the self-examination.
But no. Admittedly in this episode there’s a drunken wedding reception where everyone dances to Disco Inferno, but even that ends badly.

Just watched it!

 eeek: then  eeek: and   eeek:

Didn't watch it so can't comment on the programme but I can tell you it goes on among the youngsters and is very worrying.
The kids on the receiving end now have nowhere that they can feel safe in.

The THW was one such. It took us months to discover that she was being threatened over the internet, via Facebook, email, Bebo, even on the school website. Threats like "We are going to burn your house one night soon" kept her awake and in a state of terror for ages after we found the culprits and got it stopped.

You think I actually listen?  eeek:
How do you suppose we stayed married for this long? She is a monologue that just happens to pause for breath occasionally. I am merely required to look attentive.


BTW Pastis:

I just worked out the best thing about these Nordic thrillers .... unlike Morse, Lewis, Frost, Midsommer Murders etc where you know within minutes who dunnit cos it's always the "Famous" actor you don't know anyone in the Nordic fillums so you have no idea who is the murderer.

Mind you I did enjoy the Inspector Montelbano series too .... different sort of crime although a familiar format. Good, loveable cop with quirks that make him a bit of a rebel who always gets his man ..... but again not having a fooking clue who is a known actor you can't solve it in the first five minutes.
Title: Re: Coming up on the box
Post by: Pastis on April 24, 2012, 05:36:38 PM
Montalbano, coming after the Nordic sagas was a touch of Mediterranean sunshine, very enjoyable. I agree that the anonymity of the cast adds to the suspense but there's more than that, they're very dark - both visually and thematically. That 1st episode of The Bridge was almost all shot at night  eeek:
Some of the culprits barely appear in the first few episodes, certainly the case in The Killing.

Shall try and watch Part II later - that Swedish female cop's quite a nutter, and her colleagues have said as much  lol:

The THW's current boyfriend's mother teaches Italian ..... she tells her students to watch "Salvo" to improve their accents.

I love all the little shrugs and gestures he makes .... one really doesn't need the subtitles to follow what is going on.
A simple movement of his hands and a puff of the cheeks and you know he is pissed off with someone.

What I wouldn't give to be able to take that morning swim of his and then stand on the balcony sipping an expresso. Sooooooooo Cool!

Yeah I thought the same .

Was quite bored by the episode and think they should have made it into 3 episodes and not spun it out.  The villain of the piece is just an idiot rather than a  evil character  - he should have just run off with the bimbo bitch, taking everyone's money with them . The remaining characters could have then got on with life and be happy.

That's the first film Miss D, this one is set before so they are following evidence that appears to be an invitation by the space jockeys, I'd wondered where they came from since seeing the first film.  8)

In the main I've enjoyed the Aliens films although it feels like they missed a trick after aliens that they are only just getting to with the new game out this year. Going back to investigate the remains of the colony always seemed like the logical follow on to aliens even if it didn't have Ripley as she could have been brought back in at a later time.

The less said about the AVP films the better.  noooo:

I use Unblock-us (http://www.unblock-us.com/) as it gives the best performance of any that I've found... no server in-between you and the supplier.

But they don't support C4 yet....  noooo:

I can use fire-stream if I want tho....

Not sure if you're aware of  this site  (http://www.filmon.com/tv/htmlmain/#Channel-4) Barman, it's suppose to work outside the UK. Just find the channel you want, then click "free SD" in the top right corner  :thumbsup:

Ex had had a party through the day...I was invited but stayed away just in case...

Anyhoo Ex is upset etc...daughter has got blind drunk and has been fighting everyone. She has gone home but her partner/BF whatever has called the police...

So I go round to console the Ex and give my support...and tell her I told you so...and why do you think I didn't came to the party etc....and when I got home I saw...the closing credits to Platoon...

Just ordered it on DVD... :thumbsup:  No, I haven't got blue ray in the wigwam yet... noooo:

Strong cast list  but the first 3 pieces were really quite depressing if this is what modern love is all about  and cliched - in that one sorry sorts the whole thing out.  noooo:

Even Billie Piper as a potentially lesbian school teacher with Jenny Agutter as her mother ( did Nick cast the parts  rubschin: )

Mr C, a physicist and keen night sky and space travel watcher was over the moon, if you will excuse the pun, when he met Sir Patrick, who is one of his heroes and was the speaker at his son's ( a physicist and space scientist) graduation ceremony. We have many pictures of said event.  It was  about 7 years ago so the grand chap whilst wheelchair bound was still able to hold a decent conversation.

Grand-Prix de Plouay Ouest-France (now known as GP Ouest-France) is an elite cycle race held annually in late summer around a circuit based on the small Breton village of Plouay since 1931. Originally named Grand-Prix de Plouay, it has been part of the UCI ProTour since the competition's inception in 2005, and in 2009 became one of the events in which points can be won towards the UCI World Ranking. Since 1989, the race has been known as GP Ouest-France.

The winners list has been dominated by French riders (see below). The first non-French winner of the race was the Dutchman Frits Pirard in 1979, second was Sean Kelly from Ireland in 1984

Ooh, boys and toys programme.

Quote
Guy helps to overhaul a steam locomotive used on the popular Severn Valley Railway, a 16-mile stretch of track in Shropshire preserved to look just as it did in the 19th century.

He joins a team of volunteers, some as young as 17, to help repair its boiler, safety valves and one of its two-tonne wheels.

He also lays some track using exactly the same methods as the notorious 'navvies' - the hard-drinking, hard-living labourers who laid Britain's railway infrastructure by hand.

Guy learns the dying arts of the Victorian blacksmith to make a coal shovel out of wrought iron, and repairs a century-old train driver's pocket watch using washers just 1mm wide.

If everything can be made to work then Guy will get the chance to try his hand at every young boy's dream job: steam train driver.

I've set it to record on "+1"

Oh that bit was very very sad. Heartbreaking to watch, and made all the worse by the fact that the devastating drought that unltimately caused babee Eleflumps death, came to an end just a couple of weeks later. sad32:
The camera crew couldn't intervene though, as was explained at the end of the programme.

From Amazon...

Quote
Rampant drivel supporting the common myth that nothing ever good came out of the Seventies.
Toe curling, pretentious tosh masquerading under the guise of a "cult classic" and topped of with appallingly dodgy Scottish accents from an Englishman (Woodward),and a Swede (Ekland) notwithstanding the laughable sight of Christopher Lee done up like Jason King on a bad hair day.
Best British horror? I defy you not to titter the whole way through.

Quote from: Amazon
Did I miss something? By far the most tepid, workmanlike horror I've seen for a while. There are no surprises- literally none.
A writer moves into a murder house and things proceed at a plodding pace from there, each 'twist' being telegraphed miles ahead so that exactly what you expect to happen, happens. This continues right to the grim and suspense free ending which contains the most ridiculous, pointless jump scare in any film, ever. Actually thinking about it you might want to watch the whole thing purely to witness this. Utter shite.

Shite.

I thought it was excellent.  redface:

Uber shite!  noooo:

What a load of pretentious, pointless shite...  noooo:

Did I mention it was shite?

I thought Perfume was shite but this was Perfume2 in terms of shiteness...

Bejeesus, what were you smoking to think it was not shite? Shrugs:

Quote from: Amazon
Did I miss something? By far the most tepid, workmanlike horror I've seen for a while. There are no surprises- literally none.
A writer moves into a murder house and things proceed at a plodding pace from there, each 'twist' being telegraphed miles ahead so that exactly what you expect to happen, happens. This continues right to the grim and suspense free ending which contains the most ridiculous, pointless jump scare in any film, ever. Actually thinking about it you might want to watch the whole thing purely to witness this. Utter shite.

Shite.

So did you enjoy it........

 noooo:

I went to see this film at the cinema with a friend. There was a group of rowdy teens at the back, all talking and laughing loudly. Within 10 minutes of the film starting, the whole room was silent.
That is the genius of this film-it is so intense, you will be on the edge of your seat from start to finish. Using a combination of well timed jump-scares, brutal and horrifying 'found' footage and an eerie soundtrack, this film is a triumph and I would highly recommend it to any person into their ghost films.

Well... It is all a bit contrived but not bad TV overall...

I'd give it in the order of 5/10

To put that in perspective, Eastenders = 0/10, Derek = 11/10...

Oh and that fucking shite movie you made me sit through recommended = -50/10  evil:

Your right Steve we are all different in our views....  That is what makes life interesting it would be really boring if we were all the same.... 

Especially important on a site like this everyone has a different view and so many different characters...  We all have different backgrounds and experiences of life....

Just goes to show we are all different in our views

I thought it was the worst since Brian Blessed did the worstest everer.  Mrs K nods her head in agreement.

Your right Steve we are all different in our views....  That is what makes life interesting it would be really boring if we were all the same.... 

Especially important on a site like this everyone has a different view and so many different characters...  We all have different backgrounds and experiences of life....

IMHO I think that's what makes it fun.... cloud9:

Just watched the end of The Route masters - most excellent!  Thumbs:

But they were constantly complaining about the problems of the population of Londonistan growing by a miwlion in the last ten years and set to grow by another two miwlion in the next ten... and the pressures this placed on the transport system...

Not wishing to be branded a racist or anything but >50% of the people featured on any of the buses or trains are not what I would consider to be the indigenous population of the UK... Plus in episode #4 they focussed on the thousands of Polish arriving at Victoria bus station (who look like the indigenous population of the UK but can't speak English like wot I can)....

I can't help but think that the simple answer to the transport problems of London is not to force people out of their cars (by increasing fines and reducing parking places) and onto bicycles or public transport, but simply to stop foreigners flooding into the country...  noooo:

Rant over...  redface:

Yep to use a bus analogy "we're full you can't come in, there'll be another country along in a while"
The devil really is in the detail of making that work.

Another issue is my previous rant.  We are subsidising commuters to come into mainline city termini and then they need overcrowded buses and tubes to get to where they actually work.

Seems Channel 4 cut all the employed people out.  The title "Not everyone on benefits Street" had a little less impact.  So impact v objectivty, such a tough call for Channel 4        not

I caught the end of the 'debate' on The Today show the other morning about how terrible it was that an employed couple were excluded.... ::)

Yet the opening credits of the show clearly state that "most of the residents are claiming benefits" and "probably 5% of people on this road are working"

So (IMHO) it is not unreasonable to exclude employed people from a show entitled 'Benefits Street' about a street that is 95% dependent on benefits (especially as one of them was a benefits officer and was according to the producers uncomfortable with appearing on the show) when the show is focussing on a street that is mostly dependent on benefits!

Unless of course you think it is quite normal to have a street where 95% of the residents exist on benefits and sit around all day in front of their mahoosive TVs smoking fags, drinking beer and wearing designer clothes (admittedly prolly nicked)....

What next? "Vegetarian Hour" has to include meat eaters....? Men and Machines has to have a feature on horses?  ::)

You have to ask why they filmed working people for a year and then at the last minute decided to dump all footage of them.  Not like the series had low viewing figures was it.

Well, they obviously wouldn't know the viewing figures before they showed it so that is a pointless comment.... ::)

But I would imagine they didn't have just one camera filming the street for a year (in fact clearly not), and they cut the footage at the end to fit the theme of the programme...

Clearly, if the series was called "Working class family survives on street of benefits" you would have imagined that perhaps the footage of the working family would have received more coverage...

But, given the series was called "Benefits Street" they chose to focus on the 95% of the street that were on benefits...

No doubt, if it was called "Romanians fucked over by gang bosses" they would have dedicated the whole series to the Romanians who had been fucked over by gang bosses...

But instead, they chose to focus the programme on those people that choose to fuck over the British taxpayer by living on benefits, having multiple children with various vacant fathers, not working, thieving, drug taking, boozing, smoking and spending all day in front of a 40" flat screen tellybox completely funded by the taxpayer....

In which case, fair play to them....  Thumbs: (the film makers - not the scrounging scum) ::)

I suspect you haven't even watched it... in #2 there is a long part where a local woman (clearly not a benefit scrounger) enters the street in the "Britain in Bloom" competition and tries to get the complete shit hole cleaned up but it is clearly an impossible task with piss heads, drug addicts and benefits scroungers on almost every doorstep. How would two working people with a couple of hanging baskets change the feel of the street or the series...?

All I'm pointing out is it's a bit sus that Channel 4 decided to cut a planned showing of their most successful series in over a year from 6 episodes to just 5 and this employed couple got canned.   

But then the producer has admitted that he set out to project a "foregrounded" position about benefits.  "Foregrounded" is a poncey word meaning selectively biased

Ta for the free lecture though

Of course it is going to be biased and I bet there is miles of video tape that doesn't fit the meme.... ::)

But people wouldn't want to watch it if it was about 'normal' people going to work 9 to 5.... Normal People Street it could be called....

I watched this yesterday and was fassinated.  I have grown up living less than 5 miles from him all my life.  He can often be found having a pint locally too.  It is remarkable that such a global icon is still in touch with where he is from.

The only way the programme would really have worked was if their future benefits were linked to success in  their new job.... otherwise they have a state funded fall-back position if they can't be arsed to get up in the morning or curb their foul mouths...

" . . .it really says something about the widening generation canyon, and about a lot of young people today, their laziness, rudeness, and sense of entitlement. . . ."

As has been said before, if you pay people to be idle and feckless then many will be idle and feckless.  Lunacy.

As I said, the 'contestants' (for want of a better word) have clearly been chosen for their entertainment and piss boilage potential rather than their academic skills or work ethic...

However, the fact that such people exist at all is quite disgusting...

As you say (and I mentioned earlier), what have they got to lose from being idle and feckless...?

in forums elsewhere some defend the likes of such detritus who think it is OUR fault when one of them dies on the street when he rejected a free flat because it wasn't exactly where he wanted it.

If they won't work, no benefits and if they go nicking then jail with sentence doubled every successive conviction.  It's easy to build jails quickly - just look at Guantanamo.

It looks very much like it to me.....  noooo:

But the wives were all brought up in polygamous families so think it is completely natural....

He'd only been married to the first one for six months (and knocked her up) when he married #2....

Actually, he is only officially 'married' to #1 as polygamy is illegal...

Well am half way through it and may throw a brick at the tele soon.  Don't get me wrong, Cyprus and the locals are all coming over extremely well - Mrs K saying that's "somewhere we've not seen yet".   rubschin:

But what a dreary couple they are showing around!    I want them to fall down that drain BM posted about last year.  3 decent houses they've been shown so far and they've mostly moaned and moaned about each of them.  I really hope you don't get them.


And the programme making and Nicki (thinking man's blonde) Chapman are far lower key than when she does other stuff.  She's clearly irritated with Mr and Mrs Dreary

24 minutes still to go

Started watching The Great War Interviews (http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/group/p01tbj6p) last night....

Watched just about an hour of the five hours.... will watch again tonight....

It is a series of interviews with WW1 veterans and civilians filmed in the 1960s....

Not only are the stories amazing, but it has a very simple format....

B & W film, sit in front of the camera and tell your story.... there is obviously a little editing and cutting but not a great deal.... just people telling their stories...

Amazing! worthy:

One of the things that strikes you is just how much more effective it is than the current fashion for about 36 different camera shots, chopped in and out like a strobe effect with at least one 'hand held' camera wobbling about for some effect that I simply can't understand....

Bastards!

That is the problem in a nutshell...

When we first moved here there was an Intelligence Officer from the base living above us. He told us lots of amazing stories!  eeek:

One of the things I remember particularly though was him saying that the IRA was relatively easy to protect your bases against because you can put yourself in their mindset and imagine the different things that they might do to hurt you.

With the ragheads, he said you simply can't do that - it is impossible to think logically about an attacker that actually wants to die in the process of hurting his enemy.

He moved out overnight when they captured Saddam!  eeek:

Granted it's been years since I looked at them but I'm pretty sure that the rusting hulk of an oil tanker and a Jeep weren't mentioned in the book. Maybe there was an explanation in the later books I didn't read.  rubschin:

Haven't watched Stargate in ages, think its on Amazon prime and I have a couple of days left of the trial...  rubschin:

I can't see how MacGyver would work as a reboot, the original was the antiBaldymort. Young, dynamic, full head of hair and could fix anything with whatever was at hand. It's a pretty safe bet that a reboot will include one Google search after another in order to find the answer to whatever the problem is that episode.  noooo:

Quote
At a fast food restaurant, the manager, Sandra, is having a bad day. Suddenly, she gets a phone call from a man claiming to be a police officer who has a complaint that one of her young female employees has stolen from a customer. At the orders of this authoritative sounding stranger, Sandra takes the apparent accused, Becky, to a back room to search her before she is picked up. Once there, the phone scammer manipulates the gullible personnel into participating in Beckys sexual humiliation that grows more twisted with every new sucker on the phone. Only when one final person has the conscience to revolt do they realize the crime they were tricked into, which the real police are hard pressed to solve.

I doubt it, Disney usually avoids that sort of thing, although Nicolas Cage always seemed like someone you wouldn't want looking after your kids.

Watching the last two of Narcos (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2707408/?ref_=nv_sr_1)...

Utterly splendid!

Quote from: IMDB
There are very few series that deserve to be considered great. This could well be up there.

It's based on the true story of Pablo Escobar. I don't know how accurate it really is, but at the very least it FEELS 100% accurate.

The series hasn't gone down the English with columbian accents route, they have used Spanish with subtitles. For me it just adds to the authenticity of the series! Pablo's part is played effortlessly by the Brazillian actor Wagner Moura. He seems born to play the part! It has gone down the scorsese / goodfellas narrative approach. So if you don't like that style, you will be disappointed! If you are looking for a well researched authentic look into the life and deeds of the most notorious of the columbian drug lords - THIS IS IT! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! (It get's a 9 because NO series can ever be perfect!)

Just watched the first episode of the Grand Tour and it was exactly what you have come to expect from the three of them. albeit with a little  stronger language (one of the cars reviewed as "I didn't think it was possible to shit myself to death"). Unlike the BBC who have tried to flog a dead horse, Clarkson and co have transitioned easily to the new format, starting the show off by taking the piss out of each other being previously sacked by broadcasters apart from Jeremy, who then said that now they are on the internet he couldn't be sacked no matter what he did, even pleasuring a horse.

Their replacement for the Stig is going to be entertaining as he is an American NASCAR driver who isn't afraid to comment about the car he is driving and the whole mobile format of the show makes it a far more global affair as they are hosting the show in a custom made marquee tent which will travel to a new country each episode.

I did love the list of dangers/features of the new testing track:

Animals
Woods
Little old lady's house - apparently she is a fan of cars, Jeremy suspects that will change over the next few weeks  lol:
Electricity substation
...
...
...
...
Unexploded WW2 bomb...  eeek:

All in all I think it's safe to say depending on how hard the BBC tries to keep it going, Top Gear is going to be increasingly sidelined. Well worth a look.  Thumbs:

Clarkson shows the problem with being a left handed soldier  noooo:

BM's memi saga has just been blown out of the water by the guy who built a fully road legal replica mercedes C9 from scratch in 16 months using a 1/32 scale model to get the dimensions.

All in all a corking show and well worth watching. If the rest of the series is anything like the last 2 shows then Top Gear is terminally buggered.  Thumbs:

Just watched episode 2, laughed even more than watching the first one.  Thumbs:

This week presenting from South Africa, the trio were their bit for international diplomacy by taking the piss out of Zuma at every opportunity

I WANT the new aston martin vulcan. I don't care if it isn't street legal and that I'd need training as a contortionist to get in it I just want the damn thing. The test driver's commentary had me cracked up, the Stig's sarcastic redneck cousin.  lol:

Just watched the first episode of the Grand Tour and it was exactly what you have come to expect from the three of them. albeit with a little  stronger language (one of the cars reviewed as "I didn't think it was possible to shit myself to death"). Unlike the BBC who have tried to flog a dead horse, Clarkson and co have transitioned easily to the new format, starting the show off by taking the piss out of each other being previously sacked by broadcasters apart from Jeremy, who then said that now they are on the internet he couldn't be sacked no matter what he did, even pleasuring a horse.

Their replacement for the Stig is going to be entertaining as he is an American NASCAR driver who isn't afraid to comment about the car he is driving and the whole mobile format of the show makes it a far more global affair as they are hosting the show in a custom made marquee tent which will travel to a new country each episode.

I did love the list of dangers/features of the new testing track:

Animals
Woods
Little old lady's house - apparently she is a fan of cars, Jeremy suspects that will change over the next few weeks  lol:
Electricity substation
...
...
...
...
Unexploded WW2 bomb...  eeek:

All in all I think it's safe to say depending on how hard the BBC tries to keep it going, Top Gear is going to be increasingly sidelined. Well worth a look.  Thumbs:

Excellent!  Thumbs:
Finally got to watch it.  Echo the Meister's review.  It was visually awesome, it was sharp and it was so much better than the BBC's B team Top Gear

But it was 10 maybe 15 minutes too long.  They need to manage that.

This week Jeremy and James decide to go on a grand tour of Italy, in the spirit of the olden days when young men would travel the exotic parts of Europe and drink in the culture (as opposed to these days where they just drink the alcohol).

In keeping with the refined cultural goal they had Jeremy decided to drive the new Aston Martin DB11 (It's NOT brown it's burned orange  lol:) and James the new Rolls Royce....

...

...

Then Hammond turned up to join in, driving that most subtle and refined of cars...................the Dodge Hellcat.  lol:

I'm actually surprised that James hadn't killed Hammond by the end of the segment.  lol:

Jeremy reviews the new Porsche 911 and seems to like it...........the end of the world must be nigh.  scared2:

The american is back testing the new BMW M4 by 'British Motor Works', commenting that "My toothbrush has more power".

The guys have a challenge to make a car from sustainable materials..........and if you weren't sure before, it's clear that Jeremy is not normal

Hammond makes an interesting parking sensor.

I will admit part of the challenge did make me feel a tad nauseous.

Yep Episode 3 was excellent imho.  The Beeb's Top Gear is so never going to recover from this.

I see a possible new section for the show, words Jeremy is not allowed to use.  lol:

The boys are off to North Africa for this weeks challenge after Hammond and May kept arguing over what was the better sports car. What could possibly go wrong....?

Hammond Mazda MX-5 (hairdressermobile)
May - Zenos E10 (barebones Norfolkmobile)
Clarkson - Alfa Romeo 4C Spyder (posermobile with 'quirks')

Captain Slow manages the impossible, this may be a portent of the apocalypse...  scared2:

How the hell did the Dutch police manage to get Porsche 911's for police cars??  eeek:

In an attempt to get the Playstation generation to try boardgames May and Hammond play a version of 'battleships' you can do at home... rubschin:

Dutch late night 'motor accessory' stores, something tells me that footage of Jeremy wearing a ball gag is going to become an internet meme.  lol:

Searching for something to watch the other week I stumbled across Rick and Morty (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2861424/?ref_=nv_sr_1)...

I realise it isn't everybody's cup 'o' tea but I larfs like a drain! happy001

Just coming to the end of Series 1 (of 3)...

Quote from: A Reviewer
This show is honestly great. It is easily the best animation show I have seen in a while on any network. The second the show starts you can tell that the characters fit perfectly with each other, and involved with the craziness that happens in the universe with Rick and Morty, they are immediately hilarious and extremely creative at the same time. A couple episodes in and I could tell that this was a unique show, and that people need to be watching it because it has huge potential. And with Dan Harmon writing and directing at the helm of it all, the magic that this show brings is a rare gem in television that people need to watch.. So yeah I highly suggest this show to anyone who wants a true genuine laugh at least once a week.

So a group of nutters volunteers (including one who is afraid of the dark) are going to be dumped in a massive cave system with no lights, 90 foot drops and only a single canteen of water and a ration bar and they have to find their way out?

The problem isn't Tom Hardy though, if you watch him in films you can see that he is able to act and talk in a normal volume. It's the producers of the show that are causing the mumbling as they seem to be incapable of turning up the volume when recording.

The backlash over it happening in another couple of shows made the news a while back.

Clarkson while still watchable is in decline and has been for years - he was so 2010.  Wouldn't be surprised to see the Grand Tour end after two seasons so he's probably taking the opportunity to cash in now.  His (still brilliant) writing won't be bringing in the money the BBC and now Amazon pay him

They should have gone for Nigella.  That I would have watched (or should that be Those?)

I never really rated Tia Carrere.  You could look at each bit of her and say 'wow!' but the sum effect looked like a woman designed by a computer.

In all honesty if they are going to make more TV shows/films based on Tom Clancy novels then they should adapt Rainbow 6. As much as I enjoy reading the Jack Ryan stories I always found John Clark to be a far more interesting character.

And surely Ding was more interesting than Clark

I liked the concept behind Rainbow 6, the complexities of setting up a multinational counter terrorism unit recruiting from special forces groups all over the world would have had a myriad of complexities that could have been explored with follow on stories. I always thought that Clark was the Mr Hyde to Ryan's Dr Jekyll, the jaded, cynical dark side of Ryan that was more willing to go in and do whatever it took to get the job done. I will say though that Ding is a good character and I have enjoyed how he's been shown to grow and develop under Clark's wing which is another good reason why a Rainbow 6 series could work, not to mention that it easily leads into another franchise as you can have Ding take over Rainbow and Clark joining the Campus after being forced out of the CIA.

Shame it's on Netflix as I'll probably miss it

I used to fly to Minneapolis a lot in the 80s and the planes always had groups of them in their reddish colours as they'd change planes there to get flights to Oregon. Never seemed to see any on the return flights, maybe they could choose different colours then

Seemed at the time to be weird but harmless, turned out it was weird and not a little dodgy

The subtle warning to BM to not go back to Oz?



(sadly it's of the late Roger who died recently)
The late Roger is now starring in Kangaroo Dundee (wildlife programme) on BBC2 (on now) - seems he was a bit of a nasty territorial bastard at times

Actually the programme is very watchable.  Making us want to go back to Oz yet again

Superb first two episodes
petercarlton6 April 2017
As a lifelong enthusiast for the writing of Evelyn Waugh, I thought I would never again see a revival of interest in his work. I am glad to say that this adaptation - on the evidence of Episode 1 - ensures that I couldn't have been more wrong, as it will undoubtedly attract a whole new audience. There is sheer quality in every aspect of this production and I found myself laughing out loud throughout. Everything is perfect - casting, script, characterisation, editing; it doesn't put a foot wrong. It seems unfair to single out any one contribution, but Douglas Hodge has so much fun with the character of the deeply dubious unidexter Captain Grimes, you cannot help but be impressed while you giggle. I can't wait to watch the re maining episodes, but simply wish to congratulate the whole team on this first showing. Bravo! On viewing the second episode, there is nothing to add other than that the very high standard has been maintained - a relief and an uproarious pleasure.

Was an interesting bit on Sky News last night where they showed bits of the series to some of the surviving miners.  They generally thought it was good apart from the vodka drinking which they said they were not allowed to do.  They also showed the plaques of the dead and how many have been added over the last years.

Trust me, having seen some of Kurtzman's previous work (most recently Star Trek Discovery) the 'not as good as Jodie Foster would have been' thought is going to be the least of it's problems.  noooo:

Having loved reading Terry Pratchett when I was younger I had been really looking forward to this when I first heard about the adaptation but given it's being done by the BBC I should have seen this coming. It looks like an absolute mess. Whoever is directing this either didn't read the book, doesn't understand the characters and setting or doesn't care. For one thing Pratchett understood about diversity and affirmative action and included it as part of the plot, that was why Angua was hired for the watch despite being a werewolf, not to mention dwarves, trolls, undead and a vampire. Constable cheery is supposed to be a female dwarf who pretends to be male because of there being fixed roles for genders in her society, not a non binary human raised by Dwarves. A large part of the humour and friendship between Angua and Cheery is about her lending Cheery clothing and eventually convincing her to come out as actually being female while hiding the fact that she is a werewolf from her.

Then there is Lady Ramkin who is supposed to be one of the only kind and compassionate members of the aristocracy in the city and is certainly not a pyromaniac vigilante.  Banghead

Well after all the buildup and hype I've finally watched the first episode of Star Trek Picard and all I can say is that it's kinda vaguely Trek Jim, but not as we know it...

If anyone was considering watching the show there are spoilers ahead.

Luke Picard is living in self imposed seclusion at a vineyard having resigned from Starfleet in protest after events following the Romulan supernova and attack on Mars by 'rogue' synthetics (that's right folks, far from being the follow on from the Next Generation this show was teased as, this is set in the JJ Abrams version of Trek). After showing him giving his first interview since resigning the scene cuts to a young couple celebrating her being accepted to the Daystrom Institute before the are interrupted by kidnappers who kill her boyfriend before trying to knock her out using the ancient art of Bag-Fu (because shoving a bag on someone's head is always guaranteed to render them unconscious) Rey Dahj suddenly turns into warrior goddess and wipes the floor with them before getting a vision of Picard and going off to find him.

After a convoluted plot involving paintings and dreams Picard decides that not only is Dahj a synthetic, she is the daughter of Data shortly before she is killed by a Romulan/Xenomorph rip off hybrid that spits acidic blood at her burning her and causing her rifle to explode after she has torn through another group of the kidnappers in a martial arts sequence that was clearly ripped off from Scarlett Johanson's Black Widow protrayal even using some of the same moves as she had in the Avengers films.

Deciding to investigate what is happening Picard discovers that while organic synthetics are supposed to be impossible Dahj's necklace has the symbol for a positron cloning technique and that she was one of a pair of twins. Wait........What?? I know that this is Trek so they make up technology but from Next Generation onwards they've at least tried to ground it in a little real science to keep things consistent. A positron is the antimatter counterpart of the electron so how the hell are you supposed to be able to clone one?  rubschin:

We then cut to the surviving twin to find she is part of the Romulan reclamation project and they are working on a Borg cube, because nothing could go wrong there could it...  noooo:

Strip out the Trek references and sell it as a brand new IP and you have the potential for an interesting, if derivative, series. But as it stands it doesn't feel any more like a Star Trek show than Discovery does...

Just watched it, most excellent [/Bill and Ted mode] for a series starter.  Normally detest Patrick Stewart but he was very good

As was your review but just one point.  You do know a positron is an electron going backwards in time (Richard Feynman) so  . . . . . .

There are rumours floating around at the moment about a virtual Grand Prix season starting up soon and I think they are credible. The official F1 game by Codemasters already has online multiplayer and Esports capaility so I can't see it being beyond the realms of possibility that they work with F1 and have a mini season, sending out the needed kit to the drivers.  rubschin:

Anyone seen The Mandalorian?  Seems it'll cost us a Disney+ subscription to see it.  Got very good reviews

It has good reviews from the people I know who've watched it and if you don't mind binging Disney+ has a 7 day free trial offer...  :thumbsup:

We have one Marvel film left to watch then Knives Out then will probably give it a go.  Seems will have to fire up the Apple TV box that we've hardly used - hope it still works

While Kennedy is on the credits as an executive producer the fact that she was banned from the set shows. Having just watched the first episode I'd say it's probably the best Star Wars live action that Disney has done so far.

It's wrong for someone to say to your appeal court 'overturn this or our tourist business is double fucked' but that could be the truth of the matter

Two things seem to be indisputable: the police effed up and she didn't get a fair trial.  Lot's of debatable inferences from that but it's hard to escape the conclusion that any git planning a rape based excursion will have moved Cyprus near to first place on his destination list.

Exactly, a big cause here is the authorities turning a blind eye because they don't like hard work and they can meet their idiot stats based targets by picking on those that won't resist
 
But a broadbrush 'they are scum' approach is very much not the way to go.  Worth watching the programme and the points made by that Patrick Doherty.  he didn't actually say it in so many words but he was looking for help to isolate and get rid of the drug dealing, car thieving, community intimidating, fly tipping gits in amongst them

I have to say, my observation of them pitching up near me when I lived in the UK was not that it was a minority activity.

And as yet I've never heard anybody say something along the lines of, "some gypsies pitched up near us for a week, what a lovely crowd they were. Kids were polite and they cleared everything away when they left"...  lol:

"I'll watch it for sure, but why can't 'The Community' get rid of the scum if they are a minority...?"

Quite.  It would be guesses but I figure a mix of intimidation and tribe mentality.
 
There's a degree of difference between fixed communities and those travelling mobs that pitch up, destroy an area and move on.  For the latter I'd move them on PDQ but their vehicles would be crushed, ideally in front of them unless they could show tax, insurance and legitimate purpose for each. 
 
The former (the fixed sites) well there are some good ones.  The one about a mile from me being OK
 
The issue though is the police won't do their job because they can make their stats by easier means

So HBO are bringing some of the old Warner Bros Looney Toons back for a new show but with a couple of 'minor' changes. Because guns are bad and hurt people Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam can't have them any more, they are however allowed knives, TNT and even a scythe. I'm guessing that the HBO execs somehow managed to miss the crimes being carried out by people carrying sharp stabby cutty things.

Three years ago I stopped at a B & B that was run by an wonderfully eccentric old couple. We were having drinks one night and were talking about the history of the place and his family. It turned out that his father/grandfather(?) (I can't remember which it was) was the Captain of the ship that captured a U-boat that had an enigma machine on board. He said hang on, I'll show you some history of the event cloud9: Sextant, chronometer, photo of the U-boat Kapitan, and the U-boat being towed to Scapa Flow

Well yes poor Nigger the dog that sadly died same day.  However I was more referring to the failure to mention the horrible death toll when the dams that did breach flooded prisoner of war camps killing hundreds of allied forced labour workers (mainly Ukrainian IIRC)

And of course [nerd mode] they were not bouncing bombs (they'd been around for a fair while), it used bouncing depth charges (very very clever ones)  [/mode]

Should I watch The Imitation Game (Channel 14 at 6.45) about how we broke the Engima code or U571 (Channel 40 at 6.40) about how the Muricans did it?  rubschin:

Three years ago I stopped at a B & B that was run by an wonderfully eccentric old couple. We were having drinks one night and were talking about the history of the place and his family. It turned out that his father/grandfather(?) (I can't remember which it was) was the Captain of the ship that captured a U-boat that had an enigma machine on board. He said hang on, I'll show you some history of the event cloud9: Sextant, chronometer, photo of the U-boat Kapitan, and the U-boat being towed to Scapa Flow

Yogi Bear huge nostalgia. 

As a kid me, my brother and friends formed a Yogi Bear club in tribute, mainly to race push karts around.  Some years later I saw episodes of Yogi Bear and it was shite compared to Top Cat and I suspect even that is rather dated now

Anyway have a laugh from c 1962 (the Yogi Bear club of Swanley getting ready for the Le Mans 24 minutes race)

The trailer for the new Spitting Image series has been released

Got awful reviews on Rotten Tomatoes

Talking of which avoid Blithe Spirit released on Sky yesterday, consistently poor throughout.  As Kermode puts it:  a drab B movie in smart Art Deco settings.

Banghead  the worstest programme ever

It's a clever idea that the plot is we're watching a 1950s then 1960s sit com through the eyes of a sinister back plot but they could and should have covered that duplicity in 5 minutes and not two episodes of mostly cringey sit com

From what I understand they are trying to compress at least 3 major storylines into a single series, if that is the cast I just can't see any way that it could work.

Been watching The Innocent (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10147644/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0)... It is shite but bizarrely addictive...  redface:

Just one episode to go...  rubschin:

Quote from: IMDB Reviewer
Let's be real here, this is pretty bad. I loved the first 2 episodes (that's why I give it 5 starts and not 1), I was impressed by the action and the story-telling. But what happens next? Everything gets annoyingly predictable, I mean, I guessed almost very move. The characters are starting to act irrationally and unrealistically. Pretty bad script. It get's very, very unrealistic. Not to speak about the cruelty against women, that is pretty exaggerated. Overall good acting, especially from the blonde cop's character, I really liked her. Main character Mat barely acted. Oh and, how did Olivia and her baby survive poisoning, gunshot wound and at the end of the day she looked like nothing happened to her? And how did Olivia survive the first gunshot wound in the stomach??? She also managed framed her own death, got rid of a body, than ended up on the nun school, everything while she was shot? Really? Come on, seriously. So, so bad. I loved The Invisible Guest- it made my personal top 3 best movies of all times! But this is nothing like it.

And it sounds like they both understand and respect the material.

Quote
McKay added, “It is far too epic… and simply too good… to relegate it to a single film. We have a nuanced, layered tapestry of science-fiction/horror unlike anything that has ever been put on screen… it is a once in a lifetime project, it deserves to be savored. The material deserves that, and so does the audience. There is so much to love about this series – but for me it boils down to one thing… GREATEST BAD GUY EVER!”

I've not been a fan of the 2 recent star trek series, mainly because they are at best godawful fanfiction. But casting Stacy Abrams as earth president? Well I suppose it's the closest she will get to the White House

Judging from the view comments I'm far from the only one to think so.

But it was only a matter of time before the piss taking started. And this is a better version  lol:

Don't know if I have mentioned him before but if you are interested in that kind of thing you may want to have a look the works of John Douglas. He's a legend within the FBI, one of the two agents who pioneered criminal profiling and analysis and ultimately ended up in charge of their Investigative Support Unit. While developing criminal profiling he interviewed over 100 of the most evil convicted criminals you can imagine including Jeffrey Dahlmer, Richard Speck, Charles Manson, James Earl Ray, Sirhan Sirhan, John Wayne Gacy, David Berkowitz, and Ted Bundy.

He's released a series of books co written with Mike Olshaker that have covered aspects of his work as well as what he described as his journey into darkness.

Well in a moment of "I'll watch it so you don't have to" I put the Rings of Power on. Entertainment Weekly may have been kind..

The show opens with a young Galadriel rugby tackling some kid and about to beat the living daylights out of them for throwing stones at her paper boat and sinking it before being stopped by her brother, followed by some of the worst dialogue I've heard in ages.

"Dp you know why a ship floats but a stone drops? Because the stone sees only down"

And seems to go downhill from there:

Galadriel jumping off another elves sword before slaughtering a troll that was attacking her party (yes, that scene from the trailer).
Harfoot camouflage and 'stealth' caravans. 
Waddling dwarves
The whole thing feeling like a bad 80's B movie

On the plus side...............er.............well the CGI looks pretty decent.

Somehow I don't think I'll be watching the rest of the series  noooo:

Watching the news about the latest allegations, I fear the pair of them have edged into the realm of paranoia.
It's very hard to work out the truth and frankly I have better things to put my energy into than looking too far. 

I believe there is SOME truth in their allegations and that the ever toxic DM is obsessive compulsive about seeking revenge for losing that court case but that said, I can think of several billions of people that deserve my sympathy far more than Harry and Meghan

I hope their marriage survives, there are children involved but cute as she is and affable as he is I do wonder what next for them now that they've exhausted the curtsey and tell gravy train.

It is a superb film, Jimmy Stewart at his best but also very controversial in its day as said to be pro communist.  Mrs K absolutely refuses to watch the colourised version.

It's like 'Stranger Things' but  on a rig .

Should have been condensed into a film and not 6 episodes.

Very formulaic and repetitive   noooo:
Ta, that's 'an only if nothing else' watch then.  We tried Stranger Things, thought it was too slow and obvious even Millie Bobbie Brown couldn't rescue it.

The one criticism I would say is it's probably a 4 part story spread out to 6 parts.  Classic Horowitz though.

You were lucky, Mrs K has watched all of the processions bit, thankfully fast forwarded much of the actual ceremony.

Seems bizarre to me... If you wanted to watch it you'd presumably choose a channel with no adverts, not sure why the others don't offer alternative programming...

Now this is a reboot I wasn't expecting, James Clavell's Shogun. I remember being hooked on the Richard Chamberlain adaptation when I was a kid.

https://youtu.be/ref2m2Sx-ks?si=ASjWK9n5B5NfwTDd

I'm hoping it doesn't turn out to be another case of adapting the story for modern audiences in the same way Wheel of Time and others have been but at least visually it looks pretty much spot on for the Edo period and they show the Tokugawa clan so I'm cautiously optimistic.

nearly 15 years since I was reading Computer Weekly demolishing the Post office stance.  As someone who had responsibility for trusted system software it was obvious then they and ICL hadn't followed even the most basic of standards for such.

Those that lied should be in jail, those that had a responsibility to properly question those that lied and wilfully failed to do so should pay compensation and be barred from any responsible political or business role for life.

The Panorama programme about this last night was also most interesting / bloody infuriating. censored:

You just dont have much hope that they will pin the tail on the accountable donkey though with all the " I cannot recall" , " I was lied to" bullshit.

Just please not the "lessons learnt" mantra  cussing:

Must be absolutley infuriating for those impacted by this that for 20 odd years they fought this battle and it takes actors telling their stories to get any action on this !!!

This was also down to public fury that needed a response otherwise i am sure they would still be dragging their feet.

Although have to say was impressed by the consistent support of the MP Arthbutnot....he actually seemed to care and have principles  eeek:

There were multiple and Fujitsu have refused to declare their fault logs.  One that has been known is the screens could freeze while recording deposits and if the Postmaster pressed ENTER again the system would record a second or even multiple deposits that were never made.  Then there was the problem that the system was never designed to established standards for trusted software and it's doubted that the underpinning database software was fit for such a purpose. 

And then it's known Fujitsu employees were able to go in and edit Postmasters records without their approval or knowledge to effect changes in accounts to suit the Post Office.

Top Gun Maverick was a fun film, brilliantly filmed and while shallow on plot wasn't a bad way to spend a couple of hours.

A part 3 might be a sequel too far but after the mega bucks Maverick made it'll likely get made and we'll probably watch it.
