It makes you wonder how often this happens to people . Time and time again we see or read of , innocent people being released (if they're lucky) after spending half their lives in prison , just because the law officials want to stamp case solved on the files .

Who Killed Little Gregory was very sad .

Yep, and 2 more cleared yesterday. After what? 20 years !

Edit :30 years..

That's truly awful , it's frightening tbh how easy it seems to be for a person to be imprisoned wrongly .

I'm not sure of the name but The Innocence Files (I think!) on Netflix are worth a watch if you haven't seen it already .

Cursed.

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but it arrives on Friday, all the episodes apparently.

It looks really good, a lot going on and Loki is in it, gotta love Loki.

I think reviews are embargoed that's not always a good sign but fingers crossed.

TICKLE_ME_ELMO · 14-07-2020 6:48pm

I've been enjoying Never Have I Ever. Very funny and zips along at a good pace. The John McEnroe voiceover takes a bit of getting used to though.

I'll give it a go. Quite like the dating shows which is embarrassing. Loved too hot to handle and the love is blind one (US).

Any ideas how on a laptop/tv?

Got through the three episodes of Paula. An Irish/BBC production that goes a bit mad and pointless. :rolleyes:

Gruffalux · 15-07-2020 1:17pm

Heres a soppy one, maybe mentioned. I watched Ladies in Black a few days ago, even had a teary moment. Just thought it was delicate, elegant, poised and a bit of wholesome fun in these jaded times. Really liked it.

Loved it. Think I posted about it at the time but that's months ago

Tired Gardener · 15-07-2020 2:04pm

Last film I watched on Netflix was Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga. Silly, and slow in places, but not too bad. Highlight was getting to see Husavik, really enjoyed that little village when I was in Iceland.

Tried watching the Jeffery Epstein documentary, too depressing and upsetting. Don't think I'll be rushing back to finish that one off.

Started watching American Vandal, a good premise for a show, it does get a bit old quickly however.

S.M.B. · 15-07-2020 2:46pm

American Vandal, I was surprised with how entertaining I found it after the initial novelty wears off. Really enjoyed the second season too. I'd have it as one of my favourite Netflix originals.

So I guess Joseph Gordon Levitt's back from whatever brief acting hiatus he had going on; looks all right, though as always hard to tell with these "Netflix" films. Has the feel of a series as much as a film TBH.

joeguevara · 15-07-2020 7:14pm

Watched Mickey Blue Eyes with Hugh Grant last night. Very funny.
