Anyone deep into Silo 2 yet?

 

im just about to start but haven’t heard good things.

 

Yep, it's good IMO close-ish to the books.

 

American Primeval on Netflix, gritty western, it's rather good even if female lead is a fucking idiot. 8/10

I'm up to date as of today. It's still quality. 

 

I've read the books though so am partly watching to see how they handle different bits from the books. 

 

Personally I think it's dropped off. One of the story arcs has gone nowhere (I'm up to E7) and the other isn't really doing much S1 did. Feels very much to me this is being milked as so many of these things are. 

I got Prime so am watching S4 of the Boys. Meh, same thing. Loved it at first with it's perspective twist and the vile super hero sex and violence, but now the novelty has worn off I'm struggling to get through it. 

Mrs Rents refuses to watch Fall Out so I'll have to find time to watch that by myself on my lovely frame TV.

I can picture you standing in front of your frame TV cos it's too high on the wall, chin-strokingly admiring the work of art that is Ella Purnell. 

 

Re Silo, I would say it moves at a pace not dissimilar to the books, of which there's 3.

 

Toonpack reckons there's gonna be a S3 and S4. There's still loads to get through yet so I think that makes sense - they couldn't do what's left in 10 episodes.

We've just started the Lockerbie thing with Colin Firth. I'm only 15 minutes in, so at the minute it just feels like a big budget episode of Casualty. 

 

That's why I'm not bothering. 

One of my old collegues was absolutely loaded because of compo his wife got from Lockerbie (think half her family were wiped out, but never really asked :D). Always buying new cars, think he had 5 sports cars. Worked for pocket money.

Watches the documentary on it. That was superb.  I did have this on record but not sure I'll bother now. 

 

Just watched Carry-On with Jason Bateman. Not bad, some of it far fetched but an easy watch.

Is that the bit about Babs Windsor being a sex symbol, aye?

Mate of mine was on the Weardale Mountain Rescue team when it happened, they helped with the recovery of wreckage from Kielder Forest. 
Not just wreckage either, lots of luggage and personal items, “bits” , and a lad with him found a shoe with the foot still in it. 
 

Grim.
