Inspired casting in Hugh Laurie. There's nothing quite as pretty as napalm at night.👍

Gregory House.M.D as an arms dealer. Brilliant!

Finale of The Night Manager last. Cracking bit of tv with some great casting, Tom Hiddleston and particularly Hugh Laurie were excellent.
I also watched a few more episodes of Daredevil last night, still an excellent second series but the Elektra stuff bogs it down a bit in my opinion. The Punisher heavy episodes are the best ones. As others and i have said before Jon Bernthal is amazing.

Agreed. It's been a terrific series. One i'll definitely pick up in a few months as it will be one for repeat viewings.

I'm sure the scene where Angela finally catches up with Roper and asks him if he's 'discombobulated' was a nod to the Blackadder Ink and Incapability episode.

Also when Roper mentions Corky and frisky and Freddie i can't help think of Lieutenant George and his reminiscing about signing up for the war in the episode Goodbyeee

Quote:

Edmund: Yes, and how are all the boys now?

George: Well, er, Jacko and the Badger bought it at the first Ypres front,
unfortunately -- quite a shock, that. I remember Bumfluff's house-
master wrote and told me that Sticky had been out for a duck, and the
Gubber had snitched a parcel sausage-end and gone goose-over-stump
frogside.

Edmund: Meaning...?

George: I don't know, sir, but I read in the Times that they'd both been
killed.

Edmund: And Bumfluff himself...?

George: Copped a packet at Galipoli with the Aussies -- so had Drippy and
Strangely Brown. I remember we heard on the first morning of the
Somme when Titch and Mr Floppy got gassed back to Blighty.

Does TWD get better past season 1? I couldn't stay interested, and found other stuff to do when it was on.

Better??? I like it and continue to watch it, but in my opinion the odd episode aside its never really got back to the heights of season 1.

Has anyone seen this? Is series 1 worth Â£2?

I would say yes, got both seasons from cex for around Â£2 each and enjoyed it.

Maigret.

Thought it was superb. Locations, Photography just all worked and Rowan Atkinson was great as Maigret.

Thought i'd wait and pick it up on dvd. Ditch the ads that way.
