Film and TV review.

It's too technical for me. I am a bit of a philistine in that department. I am awaiting the postman to deliver Walking Dead season 2. I am only working on New Years eve and then off until the 7th Jan so it's ideal to catch up with some decent drama.

I haven't seen Prison Break, Boardwalk Empire or Blue Blood so they might be next on my list.

I thought i would really like Boardwalk Empire... didn't sadly. Really bored me.

Most things do, you're a tough guy to please.

Nah not really but lets be honest, there are so many TV shows, it really is quantity over quality.

You seem to know your stuff so I will give it the swerve. Have you watched Sopranos yet ?

I've just watched The first season of the Sopranos for the first time. Looking forward to season 2 now!

You have a lot of catching up to do but it is compulsive viewing.

I have never watched prison break or 24, would anyone recommend them or any others?

If you enjoyed Homeland I am sure you will enjoy 24 although the later series are weaker than the first few.

I would also recommend the Sopranos and my personal favourite, The Wire.

I haven't seen any of the Sopranos no, have never got round to it, will at some point though.

Just watching Law Abiding Citizen on dvd with gerrard butler, it's a great film IMO for anyone who hasn't seen it.

Britains funniest comedy characters currently on Channel 5 now. Some real classics.

Was bought Dark Knight Rises on blu ray for xmas, I love this film and is easily in my top 5 favourite films.

Tom Hardy is immense as Bane.

I prefered The Dark Knight. The whole Batman Begins/Dark Knight series of films have been great though. Shame they won't make any more. No doubt it'll be rebooted again though!

Just watched Africa at 9pm on BBC1. I know the Beeb have had some stick of late but their nature programmes fronted by David Attenborough are a mile ahead of anyone else.

Tonight's episode in the Kalahari desert is a must see for anyone who likes nature programmes. Brilliant photography and a real eye opener when it comes to Rhinos and Giraffes.

That giraffe fight was amazing and very fierce, whereas the "social" Rhinos was a nice surprise and even comical with their flirting!

It was a cracking documentary from start to finish. I have always admired David Attenborough and I hope he never gets his collar felt in the Saville enquiry.

The Giraffe fight was brilliant.

Attenborough bummed me when I was 10

Are you sure? Couldn't you have been mistaken ? His brother Dickie is a more likely candidate. Did the offence occur in Rillington Place by any chance?

Piecing this information together after so many years is very difficult, but yep, Dickie at Rillington place, that does ring a bell. I must go to the police with this solid bit of information first thing next Tuesday.
