  1. This went up on Netflix a couple of days ago in case you didn't know.
  2. Pretty certain I read or heard somewhere that it was sweat.
  3. As described by Brendan? Or as found by the police during their search and suggested to Brendan? "You used the leg irons and chains didn't you?" etc. I'm not convinced of Avery's innocence but I am convinced that the prosecution's version was utter bollocks.
  4. My housemate was the young rapey carnie so I had this all spoiled a year ago. See enough of him wanking in the corner at home without having to see it on my television as well.
  5. Alison Brie (Schermerhorn). Definitely gives me the Scher... etc
  6. Haven't seen this linked yet, Daniel Taylor's interview with Popplewell from a few days ago: http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/apr/27/bradford-fire-inquiry-oliver-popplewell-interview
  7. The sub-headliners. Harriet Harmon, William Hague, Paul Nuttalls of UKIPs, John Swinney and Natalie Bennett.
  8. The co-commentator in the Switzerland-Ecuador game earlier, just after Ecuador went 1-0 up: "[Ecuador] should be considered second favourites to qualify from this group. Having seen Jackson Martinez in the Champions League this season for Porto, it shows their quality that he can't even get in the side!" That would probably because he gets in the Colombian side instead. Being, ya know, Colombian. Then I realised it was professional cockbag Clark Carlisle and it all made sense.
  9. Responsible for my favourite ever piece of commentary. Must have been the game in which Crouch broke his duck for us in late 2005 against Wigan. Listening on the radio, just before Crouch scored, the main commentator says "It's been almost 24 hours that Crouch has gone without scoring for his new club." Graham, completely seriously: "But 24 hours is just one day really. Like a Monday. And nobody does anything on a Monday." Sorry, carry on.
  10. I had forgotten any and every detail about the 0-1 at home to Fulham in Kenny's season until looking on liverweb a few weeks ago. The game before the Chelsea FA Cup Final.
  11. A third season worries me a bit. Having used many aspects from Red Dragon and Hannibal, my best guess is that a third season would be closest to Silence Of The Lambs, with Hannibal having been caught. Can't see how they'd drag it out any other way.
  12. Mississippi Burning (1988) Hilarious buddy cop movie with Gene Hackman and a young Willem Dafoe as FBI agents investigating the murders of three civil rights activists in 1964 Mississippi as racial violence threatens to overspill. Very good. Brad Dourif is excellent as is often the case, and Frances McDormand proves that she was once quite a looker. 8.5/10
  13. I was thinking the other day about what beautiful symmetry there would be to us going from 7th to 1st whilst the bad mancs go from 1st to 7th. All would be right with the world.
  14. This is Papa Bear. Put out an APB for a male suspect, driving a... car of some sort, heading in the direction of, uh, you know, that place that sells chili. Suspect is hatless. Repeat, hatless.
  15. Saw it over the weekend as the third leg of an Imprisonment And Torture triple bill with 12 Years A Slave and Mandela. Made me feel a bit misanthropic, actually. As for The Railway Man, it was fairly decent. When I saw the trailer I had little interest in seeing it until Firth slid the blade out of a boxcutter and it looked like it might be a bit edgy, against all the odds. The flashbacks scenes with Jeremy Irvine doing a Colin Firth impression were probably the more interesting, and I didn't know anything of how the true story turned out so the finale was quite tense. A perfectly reasonable 7/10 for me.
  16. This is one of my favourites, although I actually think it was a great finish. Bullet downward header into the ground and up into the top corner. Very aesthetically pleasing.
  17. This guy does a pretty good Bateman, albeit whilst ruining one of my favourite songs: [YOUTUBE]G29d6RDSK1c[/YOUTUBE]
  18. This is going to be an intense few weeks. Great end scene.
  19. I'd just like to point out that the guy presiding over the appeal is called Lord Chief Justice Lord Judge. Which presumably means he was once the Right Honourable Judge Judge.
