An Inconvenient Truth - utter utter b*****ks which has been subsequently exposed as a complete scam
Hotel Rwanda - stunning film
Law & Order - nevr seen it


Wire in the Blood - a pale imitation of Prime Suspect, Cracker et al. A below average UK crime series.

An I T - need to check it out to see just how b*****ks ski it is, so that I may (or may not) agree

Hotel R - seen it, and because it's stunning, may choose to see it again (or not)

L & O - just an hour of American crime and justice

As much as I love Prime Suspect, Wire in the Blood is sizzling HOT It does it for me

OK but re AIT - watch it and then do some independent research. Don't forget the guy is a failed politician who is still desperate to find a position on the world stage.

If you like UK crime series get a mini-series called '5 Days' from HMV. Excellent viewing.

Bloke's opinion on AIT is by no means chapter and verse Crone, but it's certainly true that a couple of interesting movies were made in order to refute it. But those movies have their critics too. I'd say it's best to remain healthily sceptical about both sides.

Hotel Rwanda's your best bet tonight anyway.

I'm just downloading The Wire Season 5. Can't wait for the DVD but when it comes out I'm gonna get it as well for all possible extras. The final season of arguably the best TV series ever made.

Watchu talkin' about Willis?

Aiyaa! That will teach me not to read the listings - been wanting to see Hotel Rwanda, and spent the evening in a bar instead... Now going to check when the reruns are.

In the sense that I had a good dinner and a good chat with friends with pleasant jazz in the background, then yes, thanks.

Well, I ended up snoozing in between the shows (yes, I was channel switching too)

Gore was like a boring class teacher. The animation was very 70s at some stages. As to the message... can't honestly say I heard him as I was drifting in and out of sleep, but he sounded eloquent when I did hear. How appropriate to show the show on Earth Day! It's good to remember to do our part whatever it is.

Caught bits and pieces of Hotel Rwanda and L&O.

It's all perfect coz I get to watch them again as they'll be re-running them sooner or later

Thanks for the tip Giant!! Wire was great last night. Too bad they split the show into 2 days. Miss one day, miss the plot!

Was it?! Didn't know they showed it in HK. Thought the foul language might be a bit much. But yes, it is best watched by spending a weekend with the box set.

We are talking Baltimore not Bradford, HBO not BBC, aren't we?

Hallmark, Giant. The detective (lady) with light blonde hair (think this is a re-run as I've also seen the one with the dark blonde hair lady detective 2 months ago, when Wire was in a different time slot)
