Just watched Wonka. Really enjoyed it. Great cast, only a few songs if the fact it's a musical puts you off.

Timothy Chalamet was great as Wonka

Boy Swallows Universe on Netflix. Best thing Ive seen in a while. It’sdown as a crime drama on IMDB but Id chuck a bit of a dark comedy tag onto it as well. Quality Aussie TV

Excellent. Thanks for the recommendation. I love dark comedies.

Definitely not my usual fare and gets off to a slow start. But I highly recommend the “Triangle of Sadness” on Amazon Prime. @Richard-Latimer this will be right up your street. A very dark comedy with excellent societal commentary. Quality.

Everyone needs to watch the Netflix documentary. Word War II: From the Frontline.

It’s captivating and terrifying at the same time.

Just finished watching season 3 of Derry Girls. Very moving finale. Funny as normal but also very profound and emotional ending at the time of The Good Friday Agreement.

That must have been a monumental moment @Akiva-Anderson

It certainly was. People had reservations and a lot of people from both sides were troubled that murderers were being released from prison. Some of these murderers became advisers and government officials.

It’s the price you pay for peace. No side got everything they wanted. We had to compromise, it was difficult, but worth it.

Our peace process should be a model for those who seek peace throughout the world.

What have you done with Keith?

@Akiva-Anderson feels like diplomacy won out in the end and communication was key, something I think a lot of world leaders on all sides could learn from today!

He was gutted. He had to give up his balaclava and stop kneecapping people.

@Richard-Latimer he should be ok.. will never be Lee Majors though .. what a guy .. six million dollar man ..what a guy .. and as for casting .. after Hollywood cast Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher .. well nothing can ever get worse than that

Know what you're saying but I still like those films even though casting is much better in the amazon series.
