I watched Sisu on a plane last year. Recently I found the sequel. I enjoyed both of them.

Essentially it is about a Finnish man trying to get home during/after the second world war. A lot of very dark humour, and incredibly violent. I.e. lots of blood and guts and people blowing up. You have been warned.

Any particular service?

Im babysitting a 10 year old tonight and so had to relinquish the remote control and am being forced to watch Australian Idol.

Supposedly the theme is movie night but some of these songs are a stretch, surely supposed to pick a song that was made famous by a movie i.e not really known if not for the movie.

One contestant did Like A Prayer, now that song was seriously well known decades before it featured in Deadpool. And another just did Holding Out For A Hero and cited Shrek yet that song was made famous by Footloose. These young ones need some schoolin'.

Sorry just had to get that off my chest.

My charge will be going home soon, then i can find something good to watch.

New series Two of Capture is now screening. Good.

BBC just airing Season 3 of the Capture now. Watching it on VPN (with a bit of creative license about my ownership of a TV license).

Taking it up a notch.

A friend has been telling me her daughter has made the effort to visit from her attached flat and watch MAFS with her parents. She is not amused but is going along with it b/c of the family bonding. lol

I enjoyed Mud Town (Foxtel/Binge). It started slowly, but my the end of the 2nd episode I was hooked.

It’s back! Fabulous series, just hilarious but maybe a bit confronting for some.

Deadloch season two review – every bit as wonky, devilish and potty-mouthed as the first

 

[Katie]

I'm looking forward to Deadloch season 2 ...

 

[TheRealTMA]

Excellent.

For anyone watching A Spy Among Friends (SBS) there is also a one off doco The Real Spies Among Friends which is very interesting - some good original footage,

Really enjoying this series of Shetland (Britbox) - I like Tosh having a greater role. Last ep drops Thursday and I still cannot work out who did the ‘Mudda’ (to quote Taggart)!

I know it’s not a TV series, but I wanted to highly recommend Rental Family now screening on Disney+.

This has got to be one of the most beautifully heartwarming films I’ve watched in a long time and I’m not going to lie, it made me tear up on more than one occasion. It’s been a long time since I’ve emotionally connected with a film like this. I mean geez… even watching the trailer again got me a tad misty-eyed (knowing the story).

Do yourself a favour and check it out (and be sure to have the odd tissue within reach ).

I missed this during its cinema run, so am glad to hear that it is available now on streaming.
