    thought last nights double was poor.... really boooorrred of maisie now but shes a better actress then amanda donahoe, shes been consistently poor.
  3. well atm that hasnt happened, i suspect that like a kiddy killing or abuse story the point wont be debated but replies will consist of 'oh how sad' type posts. ill be happy if im wrong.

    'get it'? i thought the point of a crime drama was to depict a crime story... its holes are so bloody glaring that it makes following a story difficult. i dont like having to think 'where the f did THAT come from', 'how tf did THAT happen' or 'as if' !!! ... morse was beautifully crafted, weaving classic music in with proper english, intelligence, and twists. his dislike of privilidge and sloth in equal measures in his grumpy style was imho superb viewing.
  9. ..... but i dont get why its posted here.. :unsure:
  10. Mushymanrob posted a post in a topic in 20th Century Retro
    ... nah i dont agree, they are most successful one hit wonders, but to degrade many tracks just because they didnt get to #1 is daft.

    im no film buff.... i dont like modern films ... i love classic film noir, avatar took my imagination, it hooked me (somewhat against my will) via the visuals. cant really explain, its just how it is.
  12. Mushymanrob posted a post in a topic in 20th Century Retro
    erm...that concentrates on acts that got to number 1 ... so if an act only has 1 hit but fails to top the chart it isnt a one hit wonder?.... i think not. the clues in the title!
  13. Mushymanrob posted a post in a topic in Television
    .... but isnt that what makes nicola such a great character?... i dont get how the kids were 'lost' in the snow...surely youd go to where they were last seen and follow their footsteps!
  14. Mushymanrob posted a post in a topic in Television
    i like the set, the characters (wasnt 'lord percy' great?) etc but the plotline had more holes thenb an eastenders script. how this programme has more viewers then the solid morse is beyond me. i wanted a quaint english cops show to replace morse..... but this utterly fails. i mean, how tf could that bint get into a ghost train with a fekking SWORD? how tf did she know beforehand that that bloke would go on a ghost train? and be alone? just how did she lift the stone lid on the sarcophagus to get the rope underneath? how did she get the block n tackle up? and into the church? what church has cctv (rural setting)? the list goes on.

  20. tbh i bet he hasnt returned to the thread.... so he cant comment, however if he hates her more then others thats his right. but to put her as worse then westlife of which he makes no mention, is bizarre.
