    That Batman Superman movie is one of the worst pieces of crap I've had the misfortune to see.

    Forgive a film director for not pandering to the generic movie-going audience and producing a safe formulaic run-of-the-mill comic book movie. (I’m looking at you MCU)

    No sign of Bodyguard being added? It was added to Netflix globally last week. You'd think Ireland would be included given we can't access it on BBC Player.

    They didn't mention the MCU, so why bring it up. It your defence of a film is "oh well, at least it's not like those other films" it's not much of a defence.

    El Chapo and Queen of the south. Both better than Narco's imo.

    I think I read before that the Netflix/BBC arrangement over here is that things come on to Netflix a year after they air on BBC.

    Line of Duty was extremely good, 3 seasons of it.
    Not sure if it’s been mentioned.

    Finished making a murderer season 2, another great watch.

    is there any point watching knowing that they are still in there?

    I was wondering this as well. Some articles described world wide, but then some some outside of UK.

    I wasn’t mad on the bodyguard tbh.

    On season 2 in Line of Duty
    What a great TV show I can't believe I haven't seen or heard of it before it appeared on Netflix

    Absolutely! There are stones unturned left,right and centre. Old ones and new.
    Well worth a watch. Excellent series.

    It also looks like it's the theatrical cut; the extended cut made the plot & story vaguely more palatable (though not by much)

    I never heard of it til today. Was off today so I watched Blood on tv3 player...
    really liked Adrian Dunbar in it, so googled what else he was in.
    Line of Duty is brilliant! I have not done one tap today apart from Tv3 player and Netflix!

    I bet every stone is unturned... except the ones that make Avery look bad or contradict the narrative of the series.

    Series one skated over a lot of things that would paint Avery in a bad light (he asked for Halbach to come out and photograph the cars (she had previously called there - he had greeted her in a towel and "creeped" her out, he did this under a fake name...) he also called her directly on her mobile (using *67 to block his number)...weird, Avery was also physically abusive to his former wife and his fiancee, he has been accused of rape on two previous occasions.


    I honestly think he is guilty as sin, but it is clear the evidence was manipulated to get a conviction.

    For sure, the conviction is based on a very shady foundation and it does highlight massive problems in the US legal system but I think the way information is presented, or discarded if not convenient, in this series to make the viewer sympathetic to Avery affects it's credibility in a major way.

    To me Avery looks like a top class piece of shìt.
    A very strange character,odd mannerisms with a violent history.

    I don't know how you would allow a show to cloud your own judgement of him.

    I have been getting some serious belly laughs out of "Norsemen" on Netflix. Its like "The Office" meets "Game of Thrones" with the added comedy of English spoken in Norwegian accents.

    Considering he's spent 31 of his 55 years in jail I'm not sure how you come to this conclusion.

    31 years in prison arguably for 2 crimes he didn't commit must be tough to take.

    Brendan's case is even more sad. No a single piece of evidence against him apart from the confession. He's coming up on 12 years in jail and won't be released until 2048.
