In terms of modern adventure/action films, those two new Jumanji ones are genuinely good fun.

Such a simple but brilliantly effective formula that requires no special effects - getting actors to play other people stuck in their bodies.

I bought Season One of Columbo yesterday and enjoyed the pilot last night. Probably watch the next one with some pizza tonight.

I hope you regularly put the 90's Shatner one on. -Ralph I’ll have to work up to that. I’m more excited about the ones with Patrick McGoohan.

There's something reassuring about finding Fawlty Towers on primetime BBC1.

Finished watching Catweazle on Britbox. Such a wonderful show and with a proper ending too! The last episode is quite affecting. Ponied up for a DVD as I enjoyed it so much.
Now on to HAMMER HOUSE OF HORROR.
Watched THE FINAL CUT (last of the House of Cards trilogy). Er, it was ok but lacked the intensity and brilliance of the previous two FU serials. Insufficient evil.

Ralph has now seen the episode 'A Touch of Brimstone' from The Avengers. Jings. Suddenly a lot of Claremont X-Men makes a lot more sense!

This will be difficult, but you have to get her to watch several series back-to-back. She'll realise how bad it is and never want to watch again.

This week I am mostly watching Looney Tunes Platinum Collection Volumes 2 and 3 on Blu-ray. (Volume 1 doesn't appear to be available as a European region Blu-ray. ) Quite a few episodes that didn't get included on the Golden Collection DVDs. Volume 2 includes an awesome bonus Blu-ray containing the best Tex Avery MGM cartoons. Martin

On to episode 9 of HAMMER HOUSE OF HORROR. A very young Pierce Brosnan appears for a few seconds and has two lines before having his heart ripped out (that happens offscreen in reported conversation alas). Clever episode. It initially feels like it will be a dated piece with stereotypical depictions of women and gay men but turns out to be rather ahead of its time.
Very good show this. Four left to watch.

I have fallen down a Youtube rabbit hole this weekend. A channel called Geographics, which talks about everything from microstates to nation disasters. Very interesting stuff.

Old cel animated cartoons are always better. This is borne out by the film I watched on DVD tonight, which my sister's family got for me. It was very beautiful. Martin
