    Re: What are you watching at the moment

    I'm really getting sucked into the Big Bash on Ten. I've watched the last three nights. It's an interesting change having the commentators on camera a lot of the time. It's good to be able to watch someone ask a question instead of just hearing them ask.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

      Watching an old series called Spaced. Stars Nick Frost, Simon Pegg and is directed by Edgar Wright(the team from Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz etc) It also stars Jessica Stevenson as the 2nd lead character and co-writer with Pegg.

      If you like Shaun or Hot Fuzz it's similar enough to likely interest you but also different enough to be worth your time

        Does that mean we just see Jessica from behind and never a front view or was that just the one episode where they traveled to Uranus ?

          Spaced is a really great show. I can remember watching it and taping it on an old VHS recorder. Now I have the box set.


          Have you watched both series? It's got a great soundtrack CD as well.

            The coverage has been really, really good. The commentators are good to listen to. The likes of Ponting, Gilchrist, Fleming and Richards are really good to listen to and offer great insights into the game.

            Watching Gilly and Flemo react to Maxwell's 'leave' was one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

              "The Snick" is quality TV. Sort of like hard core, old fashioned House without the humour

                I could sit and listen to Viv Richards talk about cricket all night.

                  I'm halfway though season 2. I loved the reaction to the Phantom Menace. *cue The Force Theme as memorabilia burns*

                    There are several (spoken and unspoken) references to the Phantom Menace and more particularly how disappointed SP was with it that become apparent on multiple viewings. Spaced is a well crafted TV show. There are more pop culture references worked in than in your average Simpsons episode.

                      Just started on The Killing, don't know why we waited so long. It's weird seeing familiar faces from Borgen crop up though! I guess the Danish acting industry is a small one, like our own so it shouldn't be surprising.

                        When you finish with The Killing, watch The Bridge. I just finished season 1 and it was great.

                            Just started Falling Skies S4 and will then have Walking Dead and American Horror Story to follow.

                            Has anyone watched The Strain yet? That's on my list too.
                            I will never see #16 the same!!

                                Watched the first couple of eps but couldn't get into it.
