On telly this week

[Hawkmumbler]

How am I only just hearing about this?! Excellent news, Elba slays it in the tough nut cop role.

[Dandontdare]

But.. But... It's made by the BBC!  Surely this means it's an inefficient, costly, biased, elitist, nepotistic, old-fashioned, PC/SJW/white-male-oppressing, ideologically slanted waste of licence payers money? 

No no no, it's a subversive disrespectful left-wing politically correct expression of the anti-British multicultural socialist ideologies of London-centric liberal media do-gooders.

Those bloody left/right* wing BBC bastards!

DREDD is on Film4 tonight at 11:25 pm. An early christmas present.

It's not 'on telly' I think unless you have the sci-fi channel? But The Expanse is really rather good. Now to get the books...

I agree The Expanse is really good. Just started watching it the other week. Hooked on it now.

Am enjoying THE NIGHT MANAGER on BBC - I think it should still be on the iPlayer.  ALIAS would have covered the entire plot in about half an episode but the pace and decompression allow for some nice character turns (including a fun Olivia Coleman and Tom Hollander).  None of the luvvies look quite scary enough when they are trying to be scary though.

[CalHab]

I dunno, I thought Hugh Laurie was convincing but Tom Hollander struggled. Strange, since he was excellent as a psycho in Hanna.

I've been loving Iceland's entry into the 'scandi-noir' genre currently on BBC4 called Trapped.

It's about forty percent awesome beards, sixty percent suspense.

[Goaty]

Oh yes, really enjoy Trapped (it all still on iPlayer!). Can't wait for Ep7!

[Keef Monkey]

Stuart Lee's Comedy Vehicle is back tonight, and so is Videogaiden! Although Videogaiden is iplayer only or online or something.

I'd utterly missed that fact so thank you for the heads up. To the digibox...

[Satanist]

I *think* Videogaiden is getting shown at 7pmish...

Cant wait to watch with my fellow Barry Burtons

He has grown on me has Mr. Lee but his act could still do with a bit of pruning.
