    David Tennant puts in an engaging performance as disarmingly relaxed serial killer Dennis Nilsen in 'Des'.

    Only 3x45 minute epsodes in the series so an easy one to knock over.

    I googled up a real interview with Nilsen on youtube once I had finished it and Tennant has got him to a tee.

    Looks good.

    Unfortunately not on Thai Netflix (that I can see) and torrent sites bring up about 3,000,000 other torrents that has des in the title.

    Go to EZTV - TV Torrents Online Series Download | Official and use the 'select show' drop-down menu at the top of the main page- all three episodes are there.

    It's handy for short titles that are hard to search for.

    I was going to say try "des 2020" but it's easier just to give you a link.

    I should really add that that emoticon has absolutely nothing to do with the show, that after reading on Wiki is about a necrophiliac pedo. Before Dill completely loses his sheeet.

    That's an uncanny resemblance... I mean I know that's what they were going for, but still.

    I might have posted this already, but a mate of mine revealed when this show came out that as a young runaway on the streets of London, he was befriended by Nilsen who took him for dinner and listened to his problems. But alarms went off when Nielsen tried to convince him to come back to his home, and he legged it. He didn't realise how close he had come until Nilsen's picture was plastered all over the papers a few months later.

    Unhinged (2020)

    Russell Crowe is very unhappy.

    A woman beeps her horn at him.

    Russell gets even less happy. Russell is a fucking nutter. Russell goes on a formulaic, predictable, Hollywood-style murderous nutter rampage.

    Passable 6/10, will do for lockdown but not much more.

    Reminded me of that movie also. Bit predictable, but Russell is a convincing psycho and put on some bark for this role.

    Hilarious for the first 30 minutes, but runs out of steam a bit afterwards imo. Like most of Cohen's stuff, it's toe-curling at times. The "fertility-dance" at the Debutante's Coming-Out Ball is one to treasure.

    at this point i've only watched 4 of 6 episodes (and the additional live stream), but i feel confident in saying that the trippiest TV show you're going to watch this year is 'the third day'.

    at first glance it seems to borrow heavily from the 'wicker man' and 'midsommar', but IMO there's something very different going on here.

    i have no doubt that some people are going to hate it, but so far i think it's pretty great TV.

    As unlikely as it is, OhNo actually hit with a pretty good one for the first time.

    I'm sure it's been covered already but I'm currently watching the series The Deuce. 3 seasons from 2017-19.

    I'm near the end of season 1.

    Set in 1970's Manhattan, it's based around the prostitution and porn industry. Star's James Franco and Maggie Gyllenhaal, who also produces it. MG's character is a Prostitute who is becoming more interested towards the porn industry. JF's character is a barman who's trying to make ends meet.

    I like it, it's something different. Expect hookers hustling on the street and their struggles to keep on the good side of their pimps, who are mostly black guys with affros, loud clothes and cadillacs. There's a mafia/mob handle to it as well and follows new girls arriving to the big smoke to try and make a buck.

    It's not for kids.

    I give it an 8.5.

    Lang may yer lum reek...

    s29 of Top Gear is very good.

    E02 is the best thus far.


    Gave up on Long Way Up after e04 or 05. Which is pretty much where I gave up on Long Way Down.

    White Wall (TV, 2020)

    A scandihooligan thriller (nb: it's not "action packed"):

    "A mysterious white wall made of unknown material is found deep underground at the mining site of the world's largest nuclear waste depository."

    I thought I'd give it a try although it was hard to find with subtitles. But now some kind soul has put the first five (of eight) up along with .srt files.

    (Look for the ones labelled BRSHNKV).

    It's not bad after three parts, a 7/10.

    Agree - certainly not worth the wait at all. I found it simply dragged on and on after a while with only the occasional smirk.

    The trademark Borat Merkin-baiting was the weakest part of the moviefilm for me.

    Tutar was the star of the show. Watching her evolve from grotty downtrodden livestock to hotty budding TV reporter was good stuff.

    The funniest parts of the movie were the opening and closing scenes in Kazakhstan.

    The only merkin trolling that really delivered was the Giuliani scene.

    He was just tucking in his shirt! It may have involved a little extra fondling and it's not my usual method, but maybe I've been doing it wrong all these years...

    I'm a native New Yorker and- post 9/11- I would have voted for Giuliani for president- I don't know what the hell happened to Rudy, but what a fall from grace.

    I'm not saying it wasn't entertaining, but it's kinda sad for me as well- any respect I had for him is gone.
    There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.
