    So .. What Do You Watch On TV?

    All the filming for Ghosts Series 2 is complete so it depends whether the post production has been delayed. It is actually a grower. The first few episodes are a bit slow but there are some great performances and it is very witty and sweet.

    Prince Philip Duke Of Edinburgh

    I think she will go in the region 103-105 based on current evidence. Will revise if Philip dies this year.

    So .. What Do You Watch On TV?

    I am all astonishment..... I have watched this twice this year already. It is such a joy and it is surprisingly faithful to the book. If you actually got the book and split it into six even parts then you would pretty much get the episodes as they are shown. Steadman gets that these books are social comedies and not 'romances' Interestingly most of the cast are still alive only Benjamin Whitrow has died.

    I presume the only reason that you are not portrayed is the lack of availability of Michelle Pfeiffer to play you.

    Betty Driver Memorial Soapstar Superstar Thread

    If I recall correctly there were fears that if Granada had lost their franchise bid for the regional ITV broadcasts then they may have decided to offer it to the BBC at that point.

    But the point is the US will also insist on a roll back of food labelling so it will be hard to identify where US meat has been used especially in pre-prepared food and in the catering sector. People who purchase by price will be most vulnerable.

    The World of the Snowflake

    The point in that scene is that the Major complains about a racial slur confounding the audience intially only to be revealed that the reason for his complaint was it was the wrong racial slur. The racism is actually being called out by the writing but some may not comprehend the subtly of it.

    Occasionally they could be funny but most of the time the 'jokes' were too crass and basic.

  15. The black vote won't go to Trump. It didn't in 2016. The question is will it go to Biden or stay home.

    Scavenger Hunt Bingo Deadpool II

    Look at me not remembering my own rules for a game that started over two years ago. You are right GUN you will have to make do with your three ways of winning until you get your own two uniques

    Scavenger Hunt Bingo Deadpool II

    If the game is ended by say jimmy Carter, Leon Spinks or Valery Giscard d'Estaing then this will be a busy day on the forum anyway but it could equally be ended by Charles Maina or Lubomiv Strugal

    Scavenger Hunt Bingo Deadpool II

    Four players score a boxers hit with Curtis Cokes For @YorkshireBanker it is his fourth hit, second in this category but does not give them any new ways of winning For @Spade_Cooley it is a seventh hit, second in the category but does not increase his current ways of winning (but see below) For @RoverAndOut it is his seventh hit but first boxer so now only needs a Grammy award winner. None of his picks are tied so he now has five shots For @Grim Up North it is another seventh hit and another first boxer needs an EU leader to win but two of his are tied so only three of his picks will result in a GUN victory however if he were to get another hit in any category he would steal the two finishers from Spade Bibliogryphon* bg 1/0/1/1/1 Fixed Business fb 1/0/2/0/0 Captain Chorizo cc 0/0/1/1/2 Time** ti 2/0/3/1/2 Toast to 2/0/2/0/1 YoungWillz* yw 2/0/0/0/3 msc* mc 0/0/2/1/1 Yorkshire Banker** yb 0/2/1/1/0 Sir Creep (Do I Need A Joker?)* sc 0/0/3/2/1 GCReptile* gr 1/0/2/0/0 Death Impends** di 0/0/3/2/1 Spade Cooley** sp 0/2/1/3/1 Rover & Out ro 2/1/3/0/1 Grim Up North gn 0/1/3/2/1 FujimoriNoMorey fm 1/0/1/2/0 All the finishers now 1.

    Once again thanks for flagging this up. A quick look suggests this could massively increase the finishing list and possibly throw in some ties. Update coming when I am on my laptop not phone.
