Wonka - I could have done without all the songs, but generally this is an enjoyable romp. Timothée Chalamet was born for the part, but what really lifts the movie are the great bunch of English actors in it - I even spotted 3 from Ghosts. I laughed quite a bit early on too. 8/10

Yes, and Hugh Grant is a blast once again as he enjoys his career renaissance as a highly-remunerated supporting actor.

I'm in - the final season (

of Fear the Walking Dead. It really is dire now but, I feel obliged to see it to a conclusion. I think the producers just wanted it done too. Only 12 eps though, thank God.

Watched Wonka again yesterday - this time at home. A delight.

Fleishman is in trouble.....god that was shit....

We've just finished the last series of Fear the Walking Dead. Man it was bad - but that's it for now (until we start on all the other WD spin offs), I need a break from zombies.

Nearly finished S1 of Loudermilk. Beginning to feel it may have jumped the shark. There's certainly a set of water skis and a set of very large teeth present.

Polished off trigger point.. ridiculous nonsense but quite watchable in a turn your brain off kinda way...

I managed to the end of season 3..not convinced I liked it really.. stories were a bit lame.. not very funny...

Nobody. Tonight's feature on Channel 4. Just an excuse for gratuitous violence really. I guess it's what the young'uns want nowadays.
Nice to see Doc Emmett Brown looking so good after all these years though
