galenkia Posted March 20, 2022 Author Share Posted March 20, 2022 Just been watching all 4 episodes of 'Holding' on the ITV Hub. Read the book last year as it was on offer for 99p on Kindle. Enjoyed it. And as I pay £40 a year for no adverts I saved 15 minutes of advertising every hour. So 3 hours to watch it instead of 4 as you can't skip the adverts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are looking for other recommendations mine would be Coin Locker Girl, a 2015 film set in the Korean underworld of organ harvesting, human trafficking and loan shark debt collecting. Fantastic performances by the two lead female characters. I came across it purely by chance on a Thai Airways flight from Brussels to Bangkok a few years ago.

maipenrai Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 On Monday, Netflix is finally coming out with Season 5 of "Better Call Saul", after making us all wait two years - so I am presently watching Season 4 again to refresh my memory since it's been so long since I last watched the series. Season 6, the final, is due for release this year as well - I wonder how long we'll have to wait to see this... 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s really messed up how the rights to the show are owned…..AppleTV will give you a week free of AMC, and $6 a month thereafter. But even though AMC broadcasts BCS on television , you can’t get it on the AMC streaming channel…..WTF???? Took me reading few Reddit threads on the topic….my conclusion is simply “that’s not fair” . So either you paid $3 PER EPISODE, or waited until now to see Season 5 on NF, and subscribe to AMC to watch S6 live once a week. Oh yeah, forgot to mention, even though AMC sometimes runs 12 episodes straight oh Hell on Wheels, there is no re-run of BCS. So if you’re unlucky enough to forget to record an episode, you’re truly f—ked for maybe another year, paying extra or not. Don’t understand the conspiracy, easy to say it’s all about $$$, but BCS is not THAT good to deprive viewers of seeing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm paused half way through it ....... they're in Spain .... reckon few more deaths to be expected ... I sold self employed pension arrangements to five of the stall holders in Ridley Road Market during my first year representing Sun Life Assurance Soc. My area started at Stamford Hill and basically covered the whole of the East End of London. I was the 22 year old "new boy" given theoretically the worst area in London but I loved it opening a whole new world to me including Pubs in Hackney that locked you in at 1 o'clock on Fridays when the "entertainment" started. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
