Just to say that if (like me) you like old-school big-sweep history documentaries then you will LOVE Michael Wood's Story of England on BBC4. It's one of the best shows of its kind I've ever seen.

Squibsy posted:On the off chance you're not being deliberately obtuse, people's genders can change after they are born Ah that is true. Though probably not that common among 90s Omagh schoolkids.

Watching these poor guys trek across frozen wastes on foot is pretty interesting It's not interesting at all it's ten minutes of filler. As others have said it's so the US can continue to have their megs ad breaks for consumer goods that will continue to melt the ice sheets.

reality_groove posted:I watched the first ep of the Horne Section TV show, and it gave me a weird nostalgia hit for a generation of kids shows and weird Channel 4 comedy like Harry Hill and the short-lived Ant and Dec sketch show. Just something about filming it in a house, everyone being a bit crap and making the backstage stuff part of the narrative felt very comfortable and familiar. Even the pea song outstayed its welcome. Tying it in to his Taskmaster 'character' made the show a bit weak from the start. Desiree Burch seems to be appearing as herself in the role of Alex's friend.

More excitingly, there is a new series of Blue Lines. First series was outstanding.

Bogmonster posted:It's Netflix but has anyone watched The Gentlemen series? Great slice of Guy Ritchie and better than the film (which I also enjoyed). Also made me realise Theo James is British as I only knew him from The White Lotus. My in laws liked it which is usually a warning sign
