Finding Alice on ITV on Sunday was excellent.
I don't know what it's trying to be, a dark comedy or a drama. If you have better things to watch do.
I'm watching on a Sunday so I look forward to the conclusion!
I’ve got to agree. It’s a really good, hard hitting series made all the more real by the “interviews” with survivors.Watching a re-run of Band of Brothers on Sky. Co-produced by Stephen Spielberg and Tom Hanks it's in the style of Saving Private Ryan, gritty, harsh and shocking. This series is based on real events and real characters, some of whom were still alive when it was made and give a few comments about their experiences at the beginning of each episode.
I was particularly struck by a line at the end of the episode I just watched (which incidentally was directed by Tom Hanks) when Captain Winters (played by Damien Lewis) is instructed to take his men up to the Belgian town of Bastogne because of a German offensive in late 1944, which became known as the Battle of the Bulge.
He was advised that German armour was moving rapidly to the south of the town and he might find himself surrounded. He replied: "We're paratroopers, we're supposed to be surrounded."
And surrounded they were, and had a very hard time of it.
Is he using a Rigid Inflatable Boat?Adrian Dunbars Costal Ireland
Well, I would tell you, but we both fell asleep just when he visited Giants Causeway. The carer is still sleeping..... Ireland must be so relaxing!Is he using a Rigid Inflatable Boat?
Is anyone watching It's a Sin? After the first episode I didn't think I'd be able to cope with more than one a week, but here we are 5 days later and I've just watched episode 3. It is going to be a series that stays with me for a very long time.
