    I doubt that, that would imply a full year of 40 hour work weeks would produce two hours of show.

    I think that means for every 1,000 hours they shoot they throw away 999 of them because they're even more shite than the stuff they broadcast.

    10 cameras shooting 100 hours each.

    8 hours a day for less than 2 weeks.

    Yeah as Edmond points out it's multiple cameras.

    He also specifically mentioned that it takes forever to edit the three in-car cameras (one on each presenter) together, plus of course they've got other external ones etc.

    ^ Watched the first half hour. Looks promising.

    No drive-by shootings by a tough guy on an electric bike yet.

    You're unlucky. I didn't finish the first episode. I cannot understand how anyone can recommend that crap.

    We weren't too impressed with Gangs of London episode 1.

    We didn't put on Episode 2, though we might go back to it.

    The first Season or two were good. We'll probably give Season 5 a go. Thanks.

    Got halfway through episode 1 of gangs of London. It's 1 and a half hours FFS. Wasn't gripping enough so had a wank and a nap instead.

    'Gangs of London' just seemed to be violence and very little else. I watched E01 but don't think I'll bother with the rest.

    'Bosch' season 2 & 3 both seem to be much better than season 1 imo. A solid 7.5 for both.

    The New Seinfield stand up is...err...up.

    The first 30 minutes is funny stuff. The second 30 nowhere near as good.

    I can't imagine it being less shit than the "old" Seinfeld.
