I have the complete set on the media server including "that" episode.

Red shirt you've never seen before usually cops it. :D

If you like TOS then Star Trek continues (11 episodes, free download) is worth a look. The sets were built from the original blueprints.

The entire production design of Star Trek Continues is absolutely beautiful. There’s more than just original set blueprints here - the lighting, costumes and musical score are all absolutely spot on. The only thing that lets it down is that the actors are all trying to precisely emulate the original performances and obviously they can’t - it would be a tall ask for a top-drawer performer but nobody on this show is. The result is that it skirts a little close to parody on occasion.

Having said that, it is head and shoulders above any other fan produced Trek you’ll ever see, much of which is truly awful.

Line of Duty from season 1 and it's awesome.

Is this your first time watching it? I was surprised with how good it was and linked together.

Yes the first time and it's edge of seat stuff where I need to binge the next episode, I had the same feeling when watching 24.

I will start season 5 this evening.

Flipping love 24. I think it is going to be next on my list of series to watch.

Rewatch 24?

Don't you have new stuff to watch like Manefest?

Death on the Nile (1978). Found on iPlayer in all its restored glory. Perfect Sunday matinee viewing. Will be followed later by an Avengers Infinity War/Endgame double feature. :D

Don't get me started on Manifest. I am at the end of season 1 (ep 14) and I won't be continuing with season 2. Imho the tone is too light hearted in comparison to the premise of the story line. I won't get started with my realism factor but what really really gets to me (and it is always the little things :) ) is that every episode feels like a competition of how many times they can say "a/the calling" and "the major".

Spartacus is fantastic and you can get through that relatively quickly before you move onto some of the others. Star Trek and SG1 would keep me happy for a very long time and then I would love onto some TLC with Kate :romance: from Lost.

Gratitude

We would talk about Spartacus at work all the sex, violence and bad language.

The trouble is with 1,021 titles I have a lot of hours to watch.

303,468 minutes or 210 days, 17 hours, 48 minutes.

So if I started to watch on January 1st 2021 at midnight and watched 24/7 I'd be still watching at noon on the 29th of July 2021.

Channel surfing, came across MTV Classic playing the "Someone You Love" video which features Peter Capaldi (2nd cousin of Lewis Capaldi) - not seen this video before.

Have to admit, there seemed to be a lot of dust in my eyes by the end of the video…
