Lol it's crazy!! Altered Carbon is good though.

Worth starting a thread where people can recommend stuff?

Altered Carbon is utterly bonkers. Loving it.

On my list to watch. On season 5 of the Blacklist at the moment. Also love The Goldbergs but caught up on that for now.

Anyone tried Sharp Objects? Started the other day but first episode didn't hold my attention and 2nd episode I fell asleep haha!

Stick with Sharp Objects. It takes a few episodes but it's utterly outstanding!

[John Folan]

My recent watches have been

The Witcher
The Expanse
Paradise PD
Narcos Mexico
The Stranger
Messiah

All pretty decent. Currently blasting through the Clone Wars which are surprisingly good and am about to give Hunters a go.

With my poor long suffering wife I am watching
V Wars
Grace and Frankie
The Goldbergs
Atypical

Again all pretty decent.

Did anyone see Hull and Leverkusen playing Connect 4 across their Twitter accounts? Utter genius

No haha

All sorts of people on twitter asking for recommendations on tv/films/music while they self isolate.

Cesc has watched everything haha!

Some seriously scary s**t coming out now. The usually heinous Julia hb on twitter actually talking sense with compassion for once. The reason we need to avoid over 65s getting it is not just that it affects them worse but when choices need to be made they will the expendable ones.

Hotels used as hospitals
Private hospitals taken back by NHS
Pubs and restaurants shut
Parts of citys locked down

Doesn't seem as if there is an end in sight until a vaccine is available.

Life just got real s**t real quickly!!

And we can't even escape as it's the same in every f*****g country!

Since yesterday Northern Ireland has 29 cases of Coronavirus. Up 50% in 24 hours.

The UK figure is horrendous inside 24 hours. Expect this to increase by over 300 everyday now.

UK death rates up nearly 100% inside 24 hours. Mental

And the main reason because people at large refuse to do anything that would impact their day to day life. I've got a bit of cold, slight cough, had a few chills last night and immediately thought, that's it, I can't go out. The wife just accused me of being a drama queen. It wasn't until a mate said they were self isolating that she accepted it.

Now got my daughters friend over for a sleepover and the inlaws in for a cuppa. None of them are worried and short of booting them out the house I can't do a damned thing!

Thank god for that!

So basically all football is suspended because the current Arsenal manager is a wuss? At least that’s my understanding

[Richard Latimer]

@john-folan that's my problem with it all. All countries have been far too reactive and not proactive enough.

[Ryan]

@richard-latimer Yep agreed!

@john-folan Makes sense that they are doing it though, drastic but it is what is needed to get things like this tackled.

I heard on the grapevine Boris is trying desperately to keep the country moving till the summer when everything dies down in terms of schools etc... anyways then he can tackle it head on.

He’s almost said that himself. If he can get near the summer the country can afford the shutdown.

Just hope it can be controlled until then or thousands will die.

Sadly I don’t think that’s going to be avoided. Short of banning all entrances to the country and putting a full lockdown in place as soon as this hit Wuhan it was never going to be stopped.
