Off the GoT tip:

We’ve been binge watching “Barry” and it’s so off-the-wall. Hilarious, and so well crafted. Really a fantastic show.

Finally caught up with GoT… So Arya has sex with RR Martin and the dragons kill everyone and claim the Iron Throne. Meanwhile the Night King launches his own gin brand.

Neat.

Not the Night King gin.

The Mountain vodka.

OMG it was so crazy good! Bill Hader directed the episode, too. The whole thing is impressive.

KNOCK DOWN THE HOUSE - Netflix doc following four women who ran for Congress in the 2018 elections. Featuring the O-C of course. Good behind the scenes stuff. I'm a sucker for anything that's political though, but worth a watch.

THE RICKY GERVAIS SHOW - revisiting… I still think it's one of the funniest things ever...

@jonesy4885:

…Line of Duty also penned by Jed Mercurio which is literally too intense to watch sometimes.

So as I said I hàd watched S01 and 02 of LoD, but decided to start all over… Much better than I remembered...

Coincidentally, I just finished S2 of LoD last night. Enjoyable. Some great performances, not least from the actor playing Denton.

Anyone else watch Chicago PD? Is this an Iron Heart shirt?

[Crit_Obs]

Could be an IHSH-166.

@Crit_Obs:

Could be an IHSH-166.

My guess is the black variant of the ripstop 187

Yessir, we supplied their costume dep

Best dressed cops on telly!

Anyone plan on watching The Virtues on C4 tonight? Shane Meadows looks to be back on form. Great cast too. I'm pretty excited about this one. Only way it could look better is if he wrote a part for Vicky McClure…dear goodness I have had a crush on that lady for years.Stephen Graham is always a good performer too.

Sarah has never seen The Wire, so I'm introducing it to here now. Still great 17 years on.

GOT S8E5.  Brutal.  Feels like we've just about come full circle from the very beginning of the show.

Very mixed feelings about that episode. On the one hand there was some amazing film making in terms of visuals, imagery and intensity. The drama and horror of the battle, subsequent slaughter and aftermath were on a par with e.3.

On the other some of the criminal under communication and woeful story telling/continuity from s.7 came back. It seems ridiculous that they can continue to tell the story of Arya and The Hound so well,  but Jaime’s return to Cersei is so poorly explained.

Even worse, there is Dany’s descent into tyranny and madness. I have no problem that she is becoming a mad tyrant, the seeds of that were sewn a long time ago, I just resent the fact that it happened without the story being properly told.

The final scenes with Arya were astonishing though and saved it for me on the whole. Heart wrenching stuff.
