Its up to episode 2, there are only 4 and its fair to say everyone is lieing to pretty much everyone else.

I certainly think one element of this story was stretching credibility - but it stayed just about on course and more importantly it wasn't the main story plot. I thought that was well done [:)].

Episode 6 really disappointed me. Best wishes, Steve

It took 5 years of campaigning to get the UK Parliament to close it off (while it was based in a concept of Scots Law the legislation to close it down was reserved so it couldn't be done by the Scottish Parliament) but yes, I'm a bit unsure how they intend to pull all this together

Still early in the series at the moment, though, and saw enough to keep me watching. Best wishes, Steve

Felt that the second episode of Dark Materials wasn't so good. Had the feeling of it all being about shuffling the plot into place for later events? and with some odd changes compared to the books

warspite1 -> RE: What program/film/documentary are you watching now? (11/11/2019 5:39:34 PM)
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Spolier Alert+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ World on Fire The seven-part first series of the BBC’s World on Fire came to an end last night (a second series has been confirmed). I have to say it was a bit of a mixed bag, but overall it pleasing to have something WWII related to watch. At its best it was brilliant, but there were a few not so good moments….large parts of episode 5 were a bit of a shocker…. Best of all was that the writers remembered the importance of writing characters that the audience cares about. In this they succeeded with a number of characters and the storylines they were given (even if historical accuracy was perhaps stretched…..). Best of all were Shhhhaauauunnn Bbeaannn (Douglas) and Lesley Manville (Robina). This actor/actress combo were simply the class of the field, giving the show a degree of gravitas and a lesson in how to act and assisted by a nice story line. Robina was in danger of being a little too much of a caricature, but this formidable actress pulled it off. Bean, who allegedly checked with the director that Douglas wasn’t to be killed off, played his part to perfection and one couldn’t help but have massive sympathy for this wreck of a man (courtesy of the trenches of WWI). I loved (and hated!) the end where they parted – both seemingly wanting to say something to the other, but missing the opportunity…… watch this space (I hope). These two were given some excellent scenes and Robina and Jan (Harry’s little brother in law) at the school was a feel good moment. Their offspring – Lois (Douglas) and Harry (Robina) – gave equally good account of themselves, as did Kasia (Harry’s Polish wife), Jan and Vernon (Lois’ intended and RAF pilot). I like how she changed her mind on him and the subject of marriage and why - very nicely done. There were some annoying aspects, but these didn’t spoil the show too much. As mentioned previously, there seemed to be too much willingness to make this WWII for the social media generation – information seemed to be available on tap, including which ships were hunting Graf Spee, and what happened to the Exeter before the crew of the Exeter probably had time to realise….. Everything seemed to have to happen at double speed – and they would have been better having more characters to share the work. Instead Douglas’ son Tom joins up after the start of war, has a quick basic training, is teleported to the South Atlantic, comes back after the River Plate in time to head for Dunkirk where he’s wounded, patched up and then assisted by the resistance who have already got an escape route to Spain planned…. Meanwhile SOE is up and running and Harry is parachuted into Poland in July 1940 for an implausible mission (and I’m not sure what aircraft could have done that or where it was supposed to have landed…..) even more so was the fact that he met up with…… his wife! Natch. It perhaps goes with the times that the German family in the film are all anti-Nazi – although probably acceptable as a counter to the majority of Germans we come across who are good old fashioned bad guys. The only character that really grates (but is no doubt necessary to sell to this production to the US) is Helen Hunt’s Nancy. For one thing she’s had too much facial work - she really doesn’t look good. There to tell the story of what is going on, she sticks her nose into the Nazi T4 Euthanasia program – of course! So in summary, a reasonable first series and it’s welcome news that it will return. Let’s hope they get to dial back the storylines to keep within more historically accurate boundaries.

So I am guessing a second series? What is clear is that Jake, Angie and (and maybe Claire and Kenny) are the characters to be rooting for here.

I watched the first episode of "The Mandalorian". My vote is a solid Meh. A (banal) western with Star Wars painted on it. I hoped for more. Still, the twist at the ending was strong enough to see what it will happen next, but I'll give to this show only another episode to convince me to follow it.
