1st Episode of House of the Dragon looks to be very promising.
One thing that struck me was that Michael Bryant seemed quite young; when I watched the original series he seemed ancient!
I’ve been watching it, a bit dry but rather good.Surprised no mention anywhere here (as far as I can tell), of this:
BBC Two - The Roads to Freedom, Series 1, Episode 1
Actually BBC4 from 27 July; I saw most, not all, of the original BBC2 showing in 1970 (on a black and white TV). Very good production I thought, not that I've read any of the J.P. Sartre. It also for me brought back memories of the 70s.
BBC Four - Colin Baker Remembers... The Roads to Freedom
Perhaps PFM'ers did watch it but have steered clear of a mention given the controversial nature of the content. From a different cultural climate and attitudes, undoubtedly some of which would cause offence today. I understand that the re-showing was the result of a petition.
I started watching Spooks (or MI-5 as it's called in France) - total nonsense but extremely watchable at the same time.
I'm way behind you - should finish season 2 tonight.just finished series 9 and now on to series 10 . then i shall start again . great stuff .
No comment on "The Rings of Power" yet?
Saw some of that; they really didn't seem to enjoy each other's company! To me, anyway...watched this on BBc 4 last night ... very moving
I'm way behind you - should finish season 2 tonight.
I think this going to keep me occupied for a few weeks.
