TV and Film

A great TV show is "Endeavor" on ITV3.

I saw it last night: a great crime thriller.

I saw it was on but decided on the "Miss Marple" which was on at the same time. I've watched both before so it was almost the toss of a coin.

Still making our way through Glitch. It is one of those shows where you can't fully guess what is going on because.. well.. it's sci-fi lol I don't know what direction it's going in with some of it.

Yes, her underwear is certainly 'memorable'. 

I love all the references to My Name Is Earl. That was a genius of a comedy. You have seen that too, Mary?

It's the same writer as Raising Hope, and many of the same actors.

Emily, is it any good?

Im always on the lookout for decent English shows.
OH is finding accents more difficult these days..

One thing I have to say about it is that it isn't what I expected.

When I first tuned in, I thought it was going to be a weekly continuing story. It's not.


It's basically about a cruise ship, and each week, it docks in another country. One person gets murdered on the ship, and the rest of the crew have to work out who did it.


Each week there are Different passengers on the ship, so the murders are not even connected. 
I don't know... if you're looking for a quick murder mystery to kill some time, It's perfect. It's an hour long, and each week is a different story

If you want something with regular characters, an ongoing plot and edge of your seat moments, I wouldn't suggest it.   

I watched "Honey" starring Jessica Alba today.

I've watched it a few times now and never get bored: one of my favourites.

I LOVE Star Trek. It has to be one of the best franchise.

Seriously good TV programmes and films.

Have you thought of Hill st Blues re-run?

The first season was long running themes, but after that each episode had one story completed, and also a long runner in the background.

I hadn't , Im not sure if he liked that or if the accent will work with him. Its weird how he just can't understand some accents and other much complicated ones are fine.

I watched The man from Earth a 2007 film about a man who claims to be 14,000 years old.
Actually quite a nice story

I finished Season 3 of Call the Midwife last night! There's one special feature with this season, then it's back to the library and I'll get Season 4.

Also, my replacement disc for Picard Season 3 came in the mail today - there were some special effects missing from one of the episodes apparently, so you could ask for a disc with the correct version. Cool! Should watch that season again, and then Season 2 of Strange New Worlds will be here in December. (I've still got it on the PVR, but it would be nice without TV commercial breaks. Plus all those special features I enjoy!)

I haven't seen that, but I have regularly been to Hull, it's where I used to go dancing weekly, and they are really lovely people. Warm and friendly.

There are a lot of galleries and museums, usually free. The Wilberforce museum was particularly good.
