The most joyous of viewing. Light hearted, feel good TV at its finest. 

It is isn't it, I was trying to explain it to a mate and it shouldn't work but it does. I love the Roy Kent character. Looking forward to the end of series two this weekend.

I’m about 5 episodes in to What We Do In The Shadows series 3, there’re more monsters and more absurdity... possibly my favourite season yet 🙂

[Slugworth]

Anyone watched Hardy Bucks? 

[priest17]

Is Brassic good then? It's advertised so badly but I love everyone in it.

Not actually seen Hardy Bucks bar a few scenes, but I'm a big fan of Francis Higgins/Tommy Schlug on YouTube!

Episode 6 is outstanding 

[Punksnotdead]

Quite impressed by Ridley Road. Fair play to the BBC for tackling such an important subject as fascism on a Sunday night (traditionally feel good telly). Eddie Marsan as usual very impressive!

I wish for Squid Games they had used english speaking Korean people for the over dub, instead of the lame American one they went with. Makes it nigh on impossible to get into, so ditched it for the subtitles. 

OMG this. We've done 2 episodes but are this |--| close to ditching it because of the bad dubbing. Mrs B is dyslexic so we generally don't do subtitles in our house, particularly when both permanently tired out by the still sleep resistant 1-year-old Baby B.

I found that with Money Heist - it felt more engaging in the original Spanish than with English dubs. Netflix defaulted to a dub and I did try it out, but it never really connected with me to seeing the actor's lips moving in a different language to what they were actually saying.

This also weirdly reminded me of being in a hotel in Italy seeing dubbed versions of The Simpsons and Family Guy and it did feel slightly surreal watching a show I recognise in English coming out in a different language.

Yet to try Squid Game but memes based on it are everywhere so I feel like it might be worth viewing just to give those context.

We ditched Money Heist after an episode and a half. Dubbing killed it.

I couldn’t get into Money Heist either (I’m happy with subs, but Mrs Moth prefers dubs).

Worst ever dubbing is a show called Oktoberfest. All the characters are given brummie accents, presumably to give it a Peaky Blinders feel (it’s same time frame/look but in Germany).

Is hilarious... pretty sure it’s not meant to be.

That sounds amazing/awful.

I want to watch it just based on the dubbing

I haven’t seen any of the new series yet, but enjoyed the first 2 series 👍

[DomDom1984]

Just finished both Ted Lasso and Squid Game. Ted Lasso was superb stuff again, and Squid Game... I wouldn't say I completely buy the hype, but it's definitely worth your time.

I've now got Evil season 2 and The Chestnut Man ready to go.

Looking forward to Guilt S2 tomorrow night on BBC Scotland

The 1st series was one of our favourite shows of recent years

[crocodiles]

Just watched first 3 parts of Blair and brown the new Labour revolution. 

Fascinating insight of events we knew about but from the horses mouth

Agreed, an excellent series assembled from some great clips and stills from the time, mixed with current retrospective thoughts.

[Gnomicide]

The Josh Widdecombe episode of Who Do You Think You Are was extraordinary. His gobsmacked reaction as more and more was uncovered was a joy.

[Earth_pig]

Almas not normal on bbc i player, brilliant stuff.

[SheffJeff]

I need one of these in my life!

Well that's tremendous.

It's not out until November 25th (then on 26th & 27th), but I will be binging on this. As a huge Beatles mark I'm an emotional wreck after watching a 4 trailer, going to be broken after six hours.

This looks great. Have they said why it has taken 50+ years to release it?

I blame Yoko.

[DomDom1984]

Evil season 2 is acceptable stuff. Nothing spectacular. But very watchable.
