Jesse Stone: Stone Cold Channel 5.

First of the series of TV movies.
They are very good but not to everyone's taste. Slow moving and as much about him (Jesse Stone) as the crimes he investigates.
Filmed out of sequence which means next weeks is actually the first story.
Did you ever read the Spencer books?

Yes, they are very good and an easy watch. By the way it's 5USA as opposed to Channel 5.

As I suspected Deal or no deal is exactly the same as the Noel version , watching boxes being opened for an hour is still not entertaining .
I spotted a thread for it whilst scrolling through the tv section ,no replies so I am not bumping just to say how crap it still is .

Deal or no deal ?....same crap different presenter !

Big Brother is over ,didn't watch
I'm a Celebrity is back ,not watching
Masked Singer now being plugged ,not going to watch .
Strictly ,try not to watch but occasional sneak a look .

I'm running out of tv genres to watch frownfrownfrownfrown

4 sad faces is bad !

Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires Friday 24th November

Hammer's almost last throw of the dice.
The last "Dracula" but the first (second if you count Brides Of Dracula) without Christopher Lee
It's pretty daft but it's enjoyable.

9PM Talking Pictures TV Freeview Ch 82

Concorde: The Race for Supersonic.

A decent documentary about the race, between, America, UK/France and Russia, to build the first commercial supersonic airliner.

Well worth watching.

Yes, it was very good. Watched the 1st episode on Ch4 on Saturday and then immediately watched the 2nd episode on the Ch4 Player.

Is anyone else watching Million dollar wheels on Quest ,Thursdays 9pm ?

It started okay but is possibly going downhill with "beef" between the dealer/brokers over who should be selling cars to who .

I'll maybe post again after tonight's episode .

It might be worth starting from Ep1 to see what's what before starting at Ep3 tonight .

As predicted earlier ,the beef ramped up in Million dollar wheels .

Melissa Perry ,the only female broker out of the 4 featured throws a party to unveil a McLaren Elva and invites the 3 rivals.
The 3 males are round a table and nearly come to blows over the deal that went bad between RD and Omar .

Then Melissa gathers everyone at the garage to do the unveil and RD is so envious that she had the gig to show this car off .
He thinks he's "the man ".biglaughbiggrin

Teddy Pendergrass: If You Don’t Know Me

This was on BBC2 the other night.

If you have a passing interest in TP, or maybe just music, you might well find this engaging.

I was very aware of his music, but I was unaware of all the skullduggery, intrigue and even murder surrounding him.

Recommended.

Over the years I’ve heard much talk about ‘Mrs Brown’s Boy’, but never seen it, how bad could be?

I thought it might be so bad, its good, if you know what I mean. Gave it a twirl today, so bad, its bloody awful, the BBC pay for this rubbish.
