What's in/on Your DVD/VCR/PVR etc

[Matt2112]

Dispatches doc which seems to have "triggered" many royal boot-lickers on Twatter etc.

If that keeps the conversation about the (un)tenebility of the monarchy in modern society in the public's conciousness then that's a good thing in my book.

Constantine (DVD)

Finished the Diplomat S2, didn't check so didn't realise it's only 6 eps. Ending was unexpected. Looking forward to S3..

First 2 eps of The Diplomat S2

Finished The Devil's Hour series 1 yesterday. A great finale too. I'll likely go straight on to the second series (there is a third in the future too).

Some complete Voyage To The Bottom of the Sea episodes turned up on YouTube. I watched one. Loved it as a kid (and I think I watched it in the '90s as well, it was on on Sundays if I remember correctly). But anyway it feels really silly now. Really dumb script.

Speaking of things turning up on YouTube, this just turned up in my suggestions:

I was idly channel-hopping on the portable telly in my bedroom one evening in the late '70s when I came across it. Haven't seen it since, will give it a watch over the weekend. It's an early '60s low budget B movie sci-fi flick.

I faintly recall posting about it on TNMS years ago.

First 2 eps of The Diplomat S2

And finished.. ridiculous finale...

Day of the Jackal

Shiva Baby

Critically-adored comedy/drama/farce about a promiscuous bisexual Jewish woman trying to deal with the consequences of her actions during a shiva (Jewish wake).

Even at a mere 77 minutes I found it so underwhelming that it outstayed its welcome for me; aside from a couple of decent supporting performances, there was nothing here that made the characters, story or script particularly engaging.

Rating: **

Finally finished series 1 of Alma's Not Normal, and will kick off series 2 soon.
