    Yea I don't mind watching stuff with subs but it does unfortunately detract from the atmosphere as you are reading and yep dubbed versions don't always convey the emotions.

    I can't watch dubbed versions of shows, it drives me mad if the audio doesn't match the lip movement.

    HBO greenlights a TV version of Nicolas Winding Refn's Maniac Cop reboot

    Refn will direct the series, alongside Universal Soldier: Regeneration’s John Hyams, who had previously been tapped to direct the film version of the project.

    @RLx31 Yeah the dub version, that might be right, dialogue very disconnected from the emotion although it doesn't explain some weird and annoying character actions. Only 4 eps in so might move to subs going forward. Last episode had some great jumps in it.

    The Old woman was my favourite character, shes got to be one of the best horror characters I've ever seen!

    Hope it's the Drive version of Refn and not the Only God Forgives version, otherwise known as the how far can I disappear uo my own arse version.

    Taskmaster.

    Brilliant show, probably better than the below suggests but a decent encapsulation. Bonesetta doesn't usually go in for the comedy panel shows but absolutely loves it too, so double thumbs up.

    @Bones Yeah. Great show and Snowyetta loves it too. We have missed all of the early series so will have to find online and go back. I think there are quite a few of them but I had never heard of it.

    Been watching it for a couple of years. Great fun in the British tradition of meaningless inanity

    There is a NZ version coming out next year which if it is Jeremy Corbett, Guy Williams, Ursula Carlzon etc doesn't bear thinking about

    More laugh therapy ordered for New Zealanders

    More laugh therapy ordered for New Zealanders

    New Zealand audiences have plenty to laugh about, with a resurgence of comedy shows available on local screens.

    I expect after that, they can almost use the same headline again...

    @dogmeat yeah I've known of it for a couple of years but never really bothered to watch it. We happened to sit down and watch episode 1 of season 7 a couple of months ago. We're now up to date...

    Rose Matafeo is in the latest season.

    @Snowy get a VPN, it's on Dave over here so uktv network, free to air.

    @RLx31 Finished Marrianne, watched the last 4 episodes with subs and it was much improved. Really good watch, genuinely scary. Interesting ending alright!

    I just read they are killing off Guy Williams show and cutting 7 days back to 12 episodes. I see that as a win even though I never watch them .

    Had a show .
    To think people laughed at him when he was a kid and said he wanted to be a comedian, well no ones laughing now are they ?

    I think I’ve posted that before , don’t care because Guy Williams.

    Watched the first episode of the BBC's "The War of the Worlds" - one of my favourite books - with Eleanor Tomlinson & Rafe Spall in lead roles.

    Great period detail, but that's about all. Wooden acting, a script which is appalling bad and laughable in places, and CGI/effects lifted badly from Spielberg's 2005 version. Martian tripods are particularly poor - even laughable.

    Mrs Meldrew described it as "Poldark Meets The Martians" and she isn't far wrong. Hope it gets better in Ep 2.

    @Victor-Meldrew yea was disappointing, TV1 billed it as 'big budget', so assuming (hoping) it was spent in ep2?

    Expect better from BBC.

    Poldark sucks arse (well the last 2 seasons anyway)

    Finished Pennyworth - was a decent watch, although seems they were struggling with it being between the darker make believe world of Gotham and Batman, and the real world.

    I liked the guy who played Alfred, although probably a bit young for the veteran SAS he is supposed to be - probably what James Bond would be like if played by (a young) Michael Caine
