LOVE/HATE

KIN

Both about the criminal underworld in Dublin.

Both brilliant.

@FMF
Peaky Blinders, British crime drama, 6 seasons

The Great British Bakeoff

So relaxing but so bad for my sugar addiction.

deadloch (took me three episodes to begin to understand the accents/slang - i was fascinated)
jessica jones
grimm (what a dumb show, very interesting)
the weather, climate change, the grass growing
the john wick bloodbath
any sort of distraction from pain

Anything I can find about the Yakuza so I can blackmail FMF.

Sorry, but that really is the title. Netflix series about James and Alysha, road movie about two teenagers. James is shy and fantasizes about killing Alysha, but obviously they’re going to fall in love …

Good grief, that really highlights what's on offer on our screens!

It's cineworld £3 a ticket this weekend so I will be laughing at the Barbie moving (I hope I am laughing and not going 'oh my goodness, call that feminist?!'

Can't guess this one's title. Try again with a few misspellings to beat automod.

Only, it’s not “Ducking.”

Great film with a welcome twist at the end.

I watched Hell or High Water 2016 for the second time last night.
Excellent movie.

Jeff Bridges stars.

Tonight I watched Snowpiercer released in 2013.

I started out thinking “this is going to be rubbish”, but it’s actually a tremendous cinematic extravaganza and a brutal commentary on the social inequality we see in the real world.

Recommended.
