They used to film a bit of the Fast Show in town.
As one of the production team was from here. Mainly Whitehouse’s Brilliant skit. You can just about see the old rareunit mini in the background sometimes. One night they had a load of vans kind of like the classic Winnebago style parked in the market square at night.
It was on my way home from the pub, like a drunk knob I knocked on one and I’m 80% sure in my drunken state that it was him who opened the door and told me to piss off. Which was the correct thing for him to do of course.

/not even a slightly cool story bro

I stayed with it up until the series after Rick leaves, which I didn’t even finish, and I was really forcing myself to watch it by that point.

I liked a lot of the initial Neagan stuff, but it really went downhill after s7 and dropped off a cliff after that

Yeah end of season 7 is where I’ve picked it up. I’d totally forgotten about Jesus and the king with his CGI tiger :sweat_smile:.

God it was so shit. Had completely blanked out the tiger. How many times can you find paradise, wait a bit, find out the oasis is actually full of shitbags, the people are actually monsters, overcome, repeat.

The peak of The Walking Dead was the first of the Telltale Games adaptations. Had me hooked from the first moment and I actually sobbed at the ending.

Anyone watching Euphoria S3?

3544

No, but, erm, I’ve seen a lot of gifs on Reddit.

In all seriousness, is it worth watching from the start? Wife and I will be looking for something new to watch shortly and I heard good things of the first series.

3545

Yes it’s brilliant. Season 3 is excellent so far

Am sure there’s loads of commentary on Reddit etc because there’s nudity and drugs and all sorts of mad shit going on but yeah it’s a very good show

Started Legends yesterday and loving it so far. Coogan is top drawer as always but Tom Burke steals the show. Highly recommended.

I really enjoyed it. Coogan was brilliant and terrible, so hard to decide which. I ended up watching it as Alan Partridges first serious acting role. You’ll see why in one movement if you haven’t already.

As unreal as Mylonas as a character was, he was kinda endearing.

About to give Spider Noir a go on Amazon.

Cool that you can choose B&W or colour - have opted for Black and White.

Will report back.

Just finished Euphoria, was a masterpiece.

3551

Whole series was really enjoyable and a damn near perfect ending.
If you read the online discourse you’d think they were talking about Highlander 2.

Four episodes in and Widow’s Bay on Apple TV is brilliant.

Really enjoyed Something Very Bad Is About To Happen

3554

Widow’s Bay is incred!

There’s one ep that’s a little mid but it swiftly reverts to being awesome in the next 2 eps!

Someone described it to me as ‘Jaws from the perspective of the mayor’ and I thought that was a great shout.

Widow’s Bay very good. And I don’t usually go for the whole horror thing but it’s funny and very well done.

Half Man on BBC is really excellent. 6 episodes and I was absolutely glued to every minute.

Thinking of getting rid of my virgin tv box and getting a dodgy firestick but I have no idea where to start, what the process is, whether it’s a good idea. Anyone have one?

3558

Yeah you can do it yourself via YouTube vids and finding the right Discord channels or go down your local boozer and wait for someone to offer you it basically
