What are you watching?

Not words I thought I'd ever see in relation to TC!

The first name that came to mind as I read that, was Top Cat…

More comprehensible!

(Born on the Fourth of July excepted.)

Indeed. I find that Cruise is a bit like Marmite in people's opinions.

Personally I really like TC with A Few Good Men being one of my favourite films (not just for his performance though).

Guy Garvey - From the Vaults on Sky Arts (which is on Freeview/Freesat - I wouldn't be watching otherwise. Old archived and rare music clips from UK broadcasters, some of which haven't been seen since they were aired. Last one was themed on protest songs.

Filthy, Rich and Catflap - lacked the punk TV appeal of The Young Ones and very comfortably bested by Bottom, but enjoying it anyway.

Almost finished Man Down and really enjoying it, though Absolutely Fabulous abandoned after five series or so as it really goes downhill after the first two or three. Edina was obviously a caricature, but the morphs into a caricature of a caricature and just spends all her time shouting. Didn't work.

The final Grand Tour - going to miss it.

The final Grand Tour - going to miss it.

Was disappointing, and very much proved they've had their day (as a trio) in my view.

I enjoy Clarksons Farm and James May's various solo endeavours.

I won't miss Hammond, he just gets more annoying with age

Mortimer and Whitehouse are back with series 7 of Gone Fishing....

That's proper TV. It's akin to getting a gentle hug from a couple of national treasures.

The polar opposite of TG/GT

My wife and I have been watching them go fishing, from the start.

Have never watched that, their time passed long before Clarkson’s infamous punch.

Love them too. It's possible to enjoy opposites.

Psychoville - apparently what The League of Gentlemen was broadcast as in Japan.

Have I got News for You - really miss it between series.

Recording Brian Cox's Solar System, and looking forward to watching that.

I did see that - are they in 4k, do you know?

They're not.

Watching and very much listening to half hour of Santana in concert in 1976.
Of course there's the guitar but altogether a fantastic band.
BBC4, worth a look on i-player.

A House through Time - Two Cities at War. Not seen any of these before, but very interesting viewing - the stories of people who lived in two well-to-do blocks of flats in London and Berlin in the run-up to and during the war. The sheer work that must go into the research boggles the mind.

Remembered to look for this last night. iPlayer only has S4 & 5, started on 4. Leeds, my home town. Really enjoying it. Thanks for posting 👍

Kath & Kim - Aussie comedy from the noughties.

 

[GSV Ethics Gradient]

I'm sure they will be on iPlayer - there were two programmes of cover versions on Beeb2 last night. Great viewing.

Re-watching The Royle Family Christmas episodes at the moment. The Queen of Sheba is just brilliant, and the standard of acting is very high indeed.
