Star Trek Discovery’s latest series.
Excellent as always.

I was right in the mood for it, some sad bits to balance it but basically Romeo and Juliet/West Side Story set in England with a bit of Bangla and of course The Boss

I watched it last night, quite enjoyable with the music and seeing all the 'old' cars and clothes

That yellow Viva I used to have a beast of a 2.3 Firenza

I trust you didn't have to bump start it so much

Last week I re-watched Dune in preparation for part 2 this week and I think Frank Herbert would be very pleased with these two adaptations.
Part 3 is in development and I hope they keep the quality high and the cast members on board.

A re-watch of part 2 will be happening very soon

Rebel Moon pt 1 again, in anticipation of pt 2

There's a bit of an ABBA fest happening on BBC2

They’re timeless, and will always have a massive fan base, even in decades to come.
Catchy simple tunes that even the tone deaf can sing along to, and ones that will get everyone up dancing.
ABBA are a musical phenomenon just like Elvis, that will inspire people years from now.

The Assembly

A 30 minute program on the BBC

Basically Neurodivergent. Autistic, and Learning disabled people interview Michael Sheen

It is funny, uplifting, and heartwarming in equal measure

and Shows what a wonderful, empathetic, patient, kind person Michael Sheen is (you also find out far more about him than a conventional interview reveals)

You literally couldn't.

I knew my way around a spanner and had mates who were even better. It ended up having twin 55mm Dellorto carbs, a custom single camshaft and cylinder head made by the DTV head mechanic Jerry Johnson as well as the curly exhaust. I transplanted it into a stage rally prepared Mk2 Opel Manta and went for some gentle drives in the woods along with like-minded hooligans

You couldn’t bump start it because skimming the head gave it an 11:1 compression ratio (and 200 BHP) that needed a Daimler V12 starter motor to turn the engine and two batteries to get that working That said, the only part of the wiring loom that was original was for the regular lights, everything else was custom-made and pretty bulletproof

Scoop - what a pile of shite!

Anderson sounds more like Thatcher than Maitliss.

Billie Piper is very annoying in her role, plus her ugly looks get in the way - her lank, greasy crinkly hair, huge mouth, and what looked like a prosthetic nose, but was actually her real one, are very distracting.

Worst of all, the actor playing Andrew (Sewell) was the least convincing character portrayal I might have ever seen.

Absolute garbage. If I were reviewing it on IMDB, I's struggle to give it 1/10

What a pathetic and nasty hateful little man you are.
Where will you go to spead your hate when this place closes?
