He seems to be doing Tom Hardy from taboo impersonation 

 

Exactly what I said to my mate. I knew it was a Tom Hardy accent he was copying but couldn't remember which, I thought it was his Bronson accent but aye it's definitely Taboo. Shame like as its the only negative of the show so far.

Which in turn seemed to be a Papa Lazarou impression

I quite like her but when she’s  presenting on that show the lines she delivers are so forced it’s painful to watch a lot of the time


Genuinely couldn’t stand more than 2 episodes of the Taskmaster series she was on. And that’s some going considering there’s only ever 2 funny people on it at any one time

Ive never really watched Taskmaster. I quite like only connect though. And she comes  across well I think when I’ve seen her on panel shows. But the scripted ‘comedy’ stuff on only connect is genuinely painfully cringeworthy :lol:

The earlier seasons of Taskmaster were fantastic but I think they’ve exhausted the pool of decent contestants they’re capable of getting so it’s gone downhill massively with the likes of Julian Clary and Sue Perkins.

The Gentlemen on Netflix was surprisingly decent. 7/10

The Old Man. 6/10

Shogun (episode 5 out today, not yet watched) 8/10 so far. Would have been a higher rating if it wasnt for Cosmo Jarvis' silly accent.


Episode 5 very good.

Taskmaster is class. I watch it with my kids and they love it. Alex Horne is a funny little oddball genius - a great British comedy eccentric. The Horne Section is great too

Got about half an hour into 20 days in Mauripol last night. It’s clearly brilliant filmmaking but I wasn’t in the frame of mind for it. It’s absolutely gut wrenching

Hard init? But I think stuff like this needs to be seen. It shows what war is.

There’s definitely elements of McCarthy in my posting style. 

 

I'm more Chaucer with a soupçon of Irvine Welsh and Bamber Gascoigne. :good:

New Netflix documentary called Turning Point about the Cold War. I don't think its teaching me anything new* but its a canny watch nonetheless and a history refresher. Plots the relationship between Russia and the West from the revolution to Putin, 9 1 hour episodes. 

 

* Other than Marx was German not Russian, the CIA are/were even more useless than I had supposed, and Gorby's wife was quite the groin stirrer when they met.

Exceptionally good start to Ripley. Netflix have been spitting out quantity over quality for many a year now but this appears to fit under the latter category.
