What will you be watching on TV tonight (2024)?

Yes I have a DVD player and the boys laughed at me because apparently I said the same thing about a year ago when I bought a DVD 😂

Anyhoo watched the first episode of the monoculed mutineer.
At first it was just nostalgic watching the clunky 80’s filming that doesn’t seem that far from a six form production but then it builds to a pack a powerful punch that really stings.

I should have known as it was clever Alan Bleasdale’s work, he has a well earned reputation for skewering the British class system and the establishment in general but I was 13yrs old when I watched it so didn’t have a scooby!

Need a break and some tea before the next episode!
 
We watched the 2022 Elvis biopic last night.

I’m nominally versed in Elvis lore, and watching this, I kept thinking, “I don’t think that happened that way,” and post-film research confirmed that the creative sources behind the film weren’t much bothered with accuracy, even by Hollywood standards, by their own admission.

However, Austin What’s-His-Face is worth the price of admission - his execution of “Early Elvis” is damn near flawless.
