I must say that it’s only the 17yr old daughter who’s got me into watching them. Tbh she had to show me how to get them on the TV :roll:

Recently, we’ve got through all the three series of Top Boy, Queen’s Gambit and are currently halfway through the second series of Ozark.

Top boy was really good,
I am glad that it has been revived..

I don't have netflix or any of that stuff, I download it all from a site called Primewire

I have just recently watched all the mission impossible films to date... Cruise is far too old for all that s**t, and he has far too much hair..

Lennox Lewis: the Untold Story(Released last November)

Having drifted away from heavyweight boxing for a long time now...watched the above film tonight, if you love or ever loved boxing definately worth a watch...It reminded me just how great a boxer he truly was, he had it all.

I watched The Little Things the other night.

About a series of killings. Some great actors in it, Denzel and Rami Malek, but tbh the storyline was pretty naff.

Worth a view if you like thrillers/serial killer movies, but there are much better movies in that genre.

Yeah, it was kinda interesting for about 10 mins and then just became like an 80s style thriller, so it was on but I was watching phone, tablet, etc, while it was zzzzzing along, the end was particularly shite :poo:

I mainly persevered with it just to watch Denzel, whose one of my faves.
