Unfortunately that's not worth buying it then. It's not so bad if they tie up most of the loose ends but if it's left open than it's unsatisfactory when coming to a possible purchase.

Good to know though, thanks.

Been watching this Ted Lasso caper.

This season had it's moments of being funny and some episodes I didn't really laugh at very well, it was like the creators were slowly running out of ideas and jokes to put it. I did like Dog of Death and how the imitated A Clockwork Orange with that. Spinal Tap and Aerosmith in concert in two different episodes who can complain.

Found the series Posh Nosh on the YT.

Still very silly. Richard E Grant & Arabella Weir play the Marchmonts, who have very definitive ideas about good grub
Short but sweet, sadly only lasted the once, unlike shite like Gary Tank Commander ahem. Fcuk the BBC. Ahem.

Season 3.

A lot going on this season which ends with what is perhaps the greatest cliffhanger of all time , which led too a cultural phenomenon when a certain someone is shot.

The season starts with the newest Ewing, baby john being kidnapped! Digger takes ill, which leads to Pam and Cliff finding out they have a rare genetic disorder which will make it difficult for them too have children, Pam gets pregnant but loses the baby. J.R starts and affair with Sue Ellens sister,while She Ellen starts her own affair but is having problems connecting with her baby. Miss Ellie is diagnosed with cancer, JR schemes to ruin Cliff. The Ewings are set too lose everything thanks to JRs scheming but at the last minute Jrs plan succeeds and instead of being millionaires they are now billionaires. She Ellen wants a divorce, Jock is arrested for Murder , Digger dies and Pam finds out she is not a Barnes and we end with J.R being shot and with his many people he screwed over and upset , everyone has a motive , hell the way he treats Sue Ellen I would of shot him. Hagman is brilliant as JR the villian whom you love too hate, but at times there is a human side to him, like when he finds out the baby is his.

A fantastic season with so much going on. Pure escapism, far better than the boring and depressing soaps of the UK.

Dammit"! Treb.

You've had me looking at the complete series on dvd again. It's down to £75.

I know that's expensive but it's 14 series (ten of which i don't currently own), 357 episodes on 105 discs plus four movies.

When you think what Arrow and co are charging for a single film...they are practically giving this away.
