What have you watched on TV?

[Supernaut]

I've binged 2 seasons of White Lotus on HBO, really enjoyed it. Now onto the Thai season which has been massively hyped over here because of Lisa (Blackpink) involvement.

I'm halfway through season 2 - fantastic show. It was my missus' suggestion, I didn't think it'd be my kind of thing, but I was very wrong.

Enjoyed Episode 3 of A Cruel Love :The Ruth Ellis Story PN IRV Last night.

Aloo rather less so Gareth Southgate giving the Dimbley lecture on BBC1.My best wishes to TT as he starts a new WC Campaign With Ingerland.Unlike GS he's a proven winner,

I watched this short Channel 4 film from 1987. I thought it was really good.

Yes - I saw that on Youtube a few weeks back. Brilliant. (I'm guessing you follow the Scarred for Life account/podcast as well)

Are there any Southend fans that don't?

Enjoyed that. Put me in mind of Patrick Keiller's London, which is highly recommended if you've not seen...

Watch London - BFI Player

The first in Patrick Keiller’s highly imaginative trilogy of films is a photographic trip through London, recounted by our unseen narrator.

Enjoyed episode 4 Of A Cruel Love :The Ruth Ellis Story ON ITV last night .Probably the best series on the box recently.

You'd have to be living under a rock to have not heard the discourse about Adolescence. A brilliant show.

 

[Mad Cyril]

Another very dark short film.

Enjoyed 2/·3 programmes on Eric Clapton last night on BBC2 .Namely EC at the BBC + repeat of TOGWT.

Adolescence - I presume several of you have watched this and expected it to be far more prominently discussed on here. An absolute must watch if you have young teenagers or kids about to go to secondary school - preferably with the kids. Incredible performances by the wonderful Stephen Graham, and also newcomer, Owen Cooper as Jamie.

I particularly liked the one take single camera use that made the viewer feel a part of the action, and the fact it concentrated on repercussions all round rather than the actual murder.

Yes, episode 3 was really something because of the way it was filmed. Thought it was really clever in the way it focussed on how normal the family were, not something you usually see.
