SuperBacon Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I finished Twenties which popped up on the iPlayer last week and it was really good. Created by Lena Waithe and based on her own experiences, it focuses on a gay screenwriter trying to break in to TV, and her friends and is a really fun, breezy watch. Jonica Gibbs (Hattie) in the lead role is brilliant, but her mum Kym Whitley absolutely steals the show. There is one line that she says to Hattie's white colleague that had me fucking howling. Along with Better Things, Nora From Queens and Dave, whoever is in charge of the BBCs foreign comedy department has nailed it in the last year.

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted November 2, 2020 Moderators Share Posted November 2, 2020 I started Top Boy because @PunkStep and @SuperBacon keep going on about it and I saw it was on Netflix. In only a few episodes in but really enjoying it. I thought it would be fun but stupid but it's actually much better than I thought it would be.

Think all 3 series are really strong to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 It’s definitely stupid but very watchable. Kano shows some genuine chops in it too, surprised he’s not in more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted November 3, 2020 Moderators Share Posted November 3, 2020 Oh it turns out because of how Netflix had them listed I've started with season 2. I'll finish it now but is it worth going back or not bother? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not ashamed to say my first thought when the second lockdown news was leaked was 'will they have filmed enough episodes to get through to December?'

Kano shows some genuine chops in it too, surprised he’s not in more. I think the main reason is because he said he hates acting. He said in interviews that he hates process and finds it really boring so has never persued other roles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pogue Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 I watched Coronation Street, Emmerdale, Neighbours and Doctors yesterday, Doctors was the only one where someone called someone else a dingbat so on that basis it's now officially the greatest soap ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members waters44 Posted November 7, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted November 7, 2020 Oh dear! It was on ITV last week so I watched it. There was quite a good scene with the Tories trying to contact Winston Churchill via seance but Thatcher appeared instead, other than that it was pretty pants to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
