( see how I am keeping this thread on track) I was thinking I may get a wee bit of info on him from her 😁 Frankie Boyle and Gordon Ramsay would cause chaos. I would just love to watch Frankie Boyle rip into Ruth Davidson he would devour her. Which he might actually need to as I doubt any of them would win enough stars for food. How is your knee/ leg doing now ? I have nae idea who he is either haha, im pretty hopeless with famous folk in general. Aye that would be some pairing. It's getting there slowly, im now down to no crutches and just the brace. I've to wear it until just before xmas then it's just a case of physio and getting strength and proper movement back. My physio appointment got cancelled last week which was a bit annoying so I've been training myself to use the stairs properly again which can be a bit sore.

You probably dont know him as you would have been watching Pokemon or something similar at that time, I think you are a fair bit younger than me 😁 Glad you are on the mend but it sounds a bit of a slog. Good on you for continuing with the training yourself, its very easy to get fed up when there is a long rehabilitation. Dont be overdoing the xmas dancing when you shake off that brace ! 🕺It was my xmas works party last night and one of my colleagues slid along the dance floor , right into another colleague taking her, and her chair , out in the process. The chair ended up in 3 parts. He had a vasectomy only a few days ago, he didn’t look so good afterwards but it was the funniest thing I have seen in years 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is an absolutely brilliant program. Pure daftness. The contestants all look like they really enjoy themselves, even when they are making a total arse of themselves.

Aye it's slow at times but at least i can drive my parents automatics now so got a bit more independence. Just trying not to overdo it too much as you say. Ha ha sounds like a good night, he should have known better though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Och Aye Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Not a series but watched Netflix (Del Toro version) of Pinocchio with my daughter. She was in tears a couple of times. Much darker but definitely the best version. Ewan McGregor as the cricket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont usually like ‘sojers’ type programmes though 😁 Will take a look at Two Summers. 1899 is not a patch on Dark but is passing the time when its too cold to leave the house in baltic conditions .

The thing that struck me was how old a bastard I am - I was a teen in the mid-90's but the bits set then look like something off the History Channel!!

The latest shot in Sicily in the same town we stopped in a few years back. Really liked both of them. As I mentioned previously, I thought the first serious was better as i really liked the mad hotel manager but I finished the second series last night and ended up really enjoying that too. The setting was stunning, very envious of your visit . Is that an actual hotel they are in or just a mock up ? Not that I could ever afford to go there, unless of course my career as a central heating technician takes off , but was interested to know if it actually existed. The eccentric type woman was also in The Watcher, she played a similar type character in that. Not sure if that is her acting or if she is actually like that 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can tell straight away it's from the same guy that did Peaky Blinders though. Finished it last night and agree with this. Very Peaky Blinders. Loud music and posturing at times. I did enjoy it but felt it was a little bit repetitive as it went on. I will watch the documentary as with all made for ‘TV dramas based on a true story’ there is a bit of poetic licence. And why, despite drinking a gazillion litres of rum in the desert, does Paddy Mayne never have a hangover 😁 Some great performances though and mostly kept my attention, definitely worth watching IMO.

EddardStark Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 (edited) Has anyone watched My Old School on lplayer? Docu Drama about Brandon Lee ( a false name). He was a 32 yr who passed himself off as a 16 yr old at Bearsden Academy. Really good watch. Edited January 3, 2023 by EddardStark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan cake Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Slow Horses with Gary Oldman is excellent, hopefully it doesn’t take for him to die before his talents are fully appreciated. In football terms he’d be world class and certainly not a one trick pony (see what I did there) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it would be a major talking point at any reunions they have had. 😂 I thought it was pretty good of the few teachers who agreed to be on it. I'm guessing quite a few wouldn't have wanted anything to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
