    Not sure if I'm going to watch The Fall. Much as I watch anything that Gillian Anderson is in, I found the first series incredibly frightening. Storylines like that tend not to bother me but all the other women I know that watched it found it very disturbing; we were all checking that our doors were locked etc.

    Had a hard day in work yesterday and last night to unwind I watched the last 5 episodes of Game of Thrones Season 4-very good stuff but too much to properly appreciate in one night.

    Just finished on BBC2; 'Tomorrows Worlds; The Unearthly History of Science Fiction'. Part 1 of a 4 part series. Hadn't realised just how much sci fi I read when I was younger. Missed the first half cause I forgot it was on but it's on iplayer. Going to watch that now to see if it mentions my favourite; 'Pathfinders in Space'. [can't get iplayer to work; may throw computer out of the window in a minute...grrrrr]

    Couldn't understand why no one remembered it, but television was regional in those days, so it was only shown in the midlands. We used to act it out in the school playground. A sadly departed internet chum of mine knew about it; he used to write for Dr Who. Then, when I'd given up completely my son bought me a dvd of the whole series.

    What a superb program that was, BBC at its best. Almost makes me think about buying a TV licence, but not quite as that's a mug's game ;-)

    Imagine is a pretty brilliant series of programmes; probably filled the gap that the South Bank Show left. I still don't 'get' Mr Turner, though, and still think it was flawed. I've met quite a few people that have walked out halfway through, and an equal amount that have stuck it out but felt bored [like me]. Surprised to hear him say that it was made on a tight budget; it certainly didn't look so. I do, enjoy general really like Mike Leigh films but do often wonder why he doesn't just get his actors to 'act'. Was it Lawrence Olivier who said to [?]Daniel Day Lewis when he was living the character of one of his films roles 'why don't you just try acting, dear boy?'

    Nice to see you still online Moe. Mr Turner does seem to polarize opinions. May get round to watching it myself, one day. I like the way ML operates myself, it's different and produces the goods. Marvellous body of work he's got. I believe Nuts in May is being shown again soon

    There are two people we know that we meet when dog walking; I always call them Nuts in May [not to their face, of course]. The S.O. hasn't got a clue what I mean! [crikey; just thought that they probably say the same about me]. It's my browser that's having a breakdown of some kind. I seem to have spyware. Could you paste something from iplayer that I could lick onto to see if the pooter lets me watch it? It's a cunning plan but it might just work...

    Homeland is excellent this season
    Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done
