I'm re-watching Spooks at the moment!

Although I did just watch the first two episodes of The Mighty Boosh, honestly it's one of the most awful pieces of TV I've ever seen.

What are you watching?

I'll start.

I just watched She's out of my League and, although I was expecting it to be good, I was still pleasantly surprised by how well made and believable it was (apart from a few scenes). I could explain the story but it wouldn't mean much. The title already says a lot about what will happen in the movie (and so did the trailer), but what made it good was the characters themselves (and the actors portraying...

My wife’s grandad is an avid camper, now converted to his motorhome, and her dad regularly joins him on trips with various classic car clubs.

That was our VERY COLD introduction to camping, and...
