@Drewnogal saidI will try to find it on Swedish television.
Confessions of a Brain Surgeon ( BBC iPlayer) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Top brain surgeon Henry Marsh reveals the huge risks and emotional impact of a job filled with difficult life-and-death decisions. Sensitively filmed with accounts of his early and everyday personal life.
on iQIYI I have started in to "Strange Tales of the Tang Dynasty" and "Goddess Bless You From Death"
but I'm thinking of subbing to Peacock just to watch "Please Don't Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain" -- looks like the kind of stupid silly fun I could use these days
and as for Netflix, over here in the USA the ad-free version costs about $20.50 USD, which is much more than I used to pay; however, they do seem to snag some of the shows from Taiwan I'd like to watch (Tseng Jing-Hua or someone posing as him chatted with me for a few days in the spring of 2023)
after mystery fees and taxes, the Criterion Channel would cost about $12.50/month USD. but it would have so many classics from all over the world, including many from Hong Kong.
It's interesting to have started watching some movies a few years ago that are no longer available for streaming, e.g., "Helios" and "Sky on Fire".
@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidAt first I thought it might be about Nicholas Culpeper the medicinal herbalist, but it turns out that it was not he himself who was struck dead by lightning (as I previously and erroneously had read), but his love Judith, whose carriage got struck on the way to an assignation at Lewes.
Just finished watching Death by Lightning on Netflix.
Best thing we've watched in a while. Highly recommended.
Took me a while -- not just because of Netflix's raising of fees, but more having to do with the trauma of the first two seasons -- but now I have watched the first episode of "Alice in Borderland" season three.
Wow! How the tension builds even before the first game.
I do also have some lighter or at least less intense items in my watch-queue.
