I got it on Catch Up after reading how disgusted/enraged it made you lot feel. Safe to say it's not the same one as it was shit! It was about some guy and a young Bulgarian lassie. Obviously the one you are talking about isn't up yet.

Piper Alpha: Fire in the Night. Documentary about the Piper Alpha disaster that mainly focuses on the men that survived the disaster. With interviews with some of the survivors and the crew of the support ships that were involved in the rescue efforts.

The Piper stuff is utterly harrowing. More so if you work in the industry I suppose. But even more harrowing than that is that recent yeare have made it abundantly clear that major oil and gas operators still pay no more than lip service to safety and only forced changes in the design of these installations will prevent that many people losing their lives again. No doubt in my mind though that something will happen in the North Sea again soon though.

That was last weeks. There's still a couple of repeats of this weeks to be shown, think there's one tomorrow at 10pm.

Mark Kermode's favourite film is Splash and he's watched it 100 times. FFS. How to kill a 6 part series in the first 2 minutes.

He used to bang on about his favourite film being The Exorcist, and he rimmed William Friedkin at least 100 times in various documentaries and featurettes.

Haven't watched/read him since that particularly unedifying period, but I'm glad he's moved on, at least.

Half watched it but it's a bit demanding for a study of fucking rom coms. Next one's about heist movies, might close the laptop for that. Media Studies forum for this pish.

Anyone else watching the second series of Ackley Bridge? Still pretty good.

The teacher Emma is a complete arsehole though.

Yeah, I have really enjoyed it. Still to watch Tuesday's episode, but been another good series. 

Find Emma an annoying arsehole, as well as the Head.
