We don't have any tv that requires a subscription or payment, apart from Amazon which is part of our prime.

So no Sky, Netflix etc.

Would have liked to see Spitting Image though!

oppsminty that only works if you have Netflix

It's on Netflix, Blinko

And yes, fevertree, it's a real treat

Oh and I looked at the listings for tonight and despaired. The trailers for Little Mix looking for band were surely aimed at thirteen year olds. We're not fans of shows like BGT or whatever, nor D.Dyer and The Waw.

What channel is My Octopus Teacher on, please?

Oopsminty I loved My Octopus Teacher, I watched it twice, the second time so I could enjoy the cinematography without having to concentrate on the story. The main (human) character was a senior filmographer on Blue Planet. It is winning awards all over the show (excuse the pun) smile

If you can't find anything you fancy I can highly recommend My Octopus Teacher on Netflix.

Not a title that grabs particularly but I was totally captivated by it.

Now, how would you spell Danny Dyers pronunciation?

Wawl?

kitty are you a time traveller? "The Wall" isn't on until 9.15???

I loved the first Series.

BlueBelle missing Casualty here too! The first programme Mr P and I ever watched together when we first started "walking out" in 2001!

The last of Jane McDonald's 3 weekend breaks.
Prog. about the Duke of Edinburgh ( The King Without a Crown )----both on CH5, 8-9 and 9-10. That'll do me.

I love the live band and singers in Strictly, and it’s a lovely, uplifting programme. Currently watching yet another repeat of Midsummer Murders!

I’m looking forward to Strictly:The Best of Musicals at 8pm. I really enjoyed the Blackpool highlights last week.
I’m afraid Danny Dyer makes me reach for the remote when he appears on screen so I couldn’t sit through the Wall.

BlueBelle Sat 03-Oct-20 18:59:24

Oh sorry but I think they are both dire programmes? and I can’t watch either but each to their own if you enjoy them that’s good I hope I can troll through and find something end of the week Thursday Friday Saturday lately seem fairly empty although it was pretty crap rubbish I miss Casualty

At the risk of being laughed at - tonight's tv is really good Saturday night, easy watching, rubbish.

I have surprised myself by enjoying the Little Mix 'talent' show and I love The Wall although I cant stop mimicking Danny Dyer's pronunciation of 'the wall'.

Please tell me I'm not the only one just slumping in front of the rubbish tv!
