Red Quest is good if you want to laugh at Americans. Watching Extreme Couponing; f**k me gently. Two fat couples with a massive pile of money off coupons spending a pishload of cash to "save" money. The worst bit was them buying the special in a local diner (to split) afterwards and it came on a plastic plate. The "glasses" for their water were also plastic.

 

The shopping trip includes 68 * 2 litre bottles of fizzy shite, 30 tins of pineapple, and 90 cartons of Pringles. They spent 10 hours in the shops doing this.

 

677 dollars of utter crap that actually cost them 150 dollars but nothing that I would buy.

 

This mob are telling us what to do. We're doomed.

Doddie Weir: One More Try, on the BBC Scotland channel, echoes of the Fernando Ricksen documentary about fighting MND.
Cracking big guy & an inspiration.
Well worth watching
 


Not sure my increasingly sensitive soul could take that one... I could barely make it through the five minute interview he did a while back.

It's worth watching, you may well fill up a bit at parts but that's only natural.

Plenty of humour throughout too.

From Scotland with Love (iPlayer): Documentary using archive footage with soundtrack by King Creosote. Really impressive and quite emotional at times. 
It's brilliant, i got it on dvd a few years ago and watch it every Hogmanay, beautiful imagery and great music, you're spot on about the emotional aspect.

Haven't seen the film but listened to the album plenty of times!

Firstly, those stupid boom mics used on the Eurosport snooker coverage. 

Secondly, the increasing amount of channels broadcasting 'classic' tv shows when what they really mean is old repeats we've found in the cupboard. 

'Classic' Eastenders. 'Classic' Emmerdale. 'Classic' Holby City. 'Classic' Casualty.

Broadcast it if you have to but FFS, stop trying to dress it up to be something it's not.

Some old boy went looting at the end of WW2 and his daughter is doing the the whole "we will never see their like again" bit.. The Repair Shop, BBC 1. Nicked family heirloom from someone who fought in WW1 ironically.

Double that up with Dirt Road to Lafayette and a couple of very large whiskies, and you're set fair for a weepy old evening.
