Film and TV review.

no idea why my old attempt to wind up Boggers is showing at the bottom of my post.

KP I thought signatures had been turned off?

Switched back off now.  Thanks

Watched the new Quentin Tarantino film today. A half hour story dragged out for 2 hours 45 minutes.

Ive just watched the polar opposite of that in adam sandlers new one, the ridiculous 6.  Utterly stupid but fun.

I've been pretty disappointed with the TV entertainment on offer over the festive period,which shouldn't really have surprised me.
'Sherlock' was well worth waiting for,but the highlight for me was 'Leningrad & the Orchestra that defied Hitler'. Catch it on the BBC iplayer.
Left me quite tearful.(But in a manly way)

Surprised you didn't list Mrs Brown's Boys Christmas Specials amongst your favourite viewing over the holidays, Bouncy?

totally agree with both of those bonce but I also quite enjoyed the Dr Who xmas day episode. Utterly and totally silly but reminiscent of the best of Tom Baker in its sheer ludicrousness. And since when was River Song so dense, he practically held up a sign saying "Hello Sweetie" and she still didn't get it. It was a hell of a laugh when she did though. "Oh you are so doing those roots."

I'm going to start calling him Bouncy from now on.

Ooops!

Sorry.

Never been a fan of Mrs Brown,but I've been surprised at the number elderly ladies who adore it. Didn't think it would be their cup of tea.

Just watched The Martian, good film, totally unrealistic though, I mean Sean Bean works for Nasa.

got a mate who has a season ticket...no, not like that...to the flicks and goes 3 times a week. She reckons Amy was the best film she saw last year...its now starting for its network premiere on 4. Pass it on for what its worth, I will barricade myself in my drawing room against the unmentionables (rhymes with Nat) and watch it, happy evening all.

Any one watching From Dusk Till Dawn on Spike (no never heard of it before either).

Pretty decent adaptation of the film.

I never thought that I would enjoy watching a short bloke dressed up as an old woman either!

that can't be right Boncey, surely you are an old bloke dressed up as a short woman?

Has anyone seen The Detectorists?

I lasted one episode. And only because I fell asleep.

I watched them all in one night. Loved it.

I might have another go at a more reasonable hour.

Rather gone under my radar.
