John Oliver did a nice bit about how hard the American Christians have fought to equate money with favour from God. And by "nice", I mean, "sickening and disgusting". Worth bearing in mind that these people also operate in the UK to a lesser degree. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was sent off (second yellow) for flicking the ball up and headering it back to his own keeper. On 25/09/2021 at 17:24, Mark Connolly said: That's been in the laws for ages. IIRC it's something along the lines of "using a deliberate trick to circumvent the passback rule". Yeah, that's not hard done by, it's a very straightforward yellow card. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 I might have missed this already being posted, but the BBC are making a documentary with Steve Coogan playing one of Britain's greatest BEASTS. Surprisingly, the reaction to the story hasn't all been positive and supportive of their decision... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While there have been impressive performances from the likes of Jamie Fox (Ray Charles), Will Smith (Muhammed Ali), Chadwick Boseman (James Brown), among others, where the actor almost becomes the character portrayed, it's the wrong'uns which attract the really spooky portrayals. Watching Des, you could easily have been watching a younger Neilsen. A superb performance by Tennant who, as far as I know, never met the old monster. Dominic West also turned in a scarily accurate portrayal of his namesake Fred in Appropriate Adult, deservedly winning a BAFTA for the role. (Emily Watson also got one for the title role). Then there's the ultimate - Charlize Theron as Aileen Wuornoz in Monster. Watch this, followed by Aileen- Life and Death of a Serial Killer, and it is honestly incredible how accurate Theron's portrayal is. A handy reminder that picking up hitchhikers can be just as risky as hitching itself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Partridge briefly did an ill advised impression. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd forgotten about that one. I was trying to remember if they'd done a Fred and Rose drama. Closer to Savile, Robbie Coltraine played a fictional TV personality who was accused of sexual assault. He was a Savile-like figure in that nobody could believe he had done it and he was eventually cleared, Spoiler though it turned out he had done it after all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen a few dodgy VHS videos in my time but this doesn't sound like my mug o' pish. Reception[edit] Upon Eraserhead's release, Variety offered a negative review, calling it "a sickening bad-taste exercise".[52] The review expressed incredulity over the film's long gestation and described its finale as unwatchable.[52] Comparing Eraserhead to Lynch's next film The Elephant Man, Tom Buckley of The New York Times wrote that while the latter was a well-made film with an accomplished cast, the former was not. Buckley called Eraserhead "murkily pretentious", and wrote that the film's horror aspects stemmed solely from the appearance of the deformed child rather than from its script or performances. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
