I tried explaining the concept of Gogglebox to a fellow dog walker just yesterday as he'd never heard of it, he still thinks I'm taking the piss :)It is a good experiment to watch and loads of predictable drama , my fav thing on tv , aside from gogglebox

Watching The Wire again, this time with subtitles, good series
IMO there are a lot of series well worthy of a second or even a third watch given time.
I find that I often pick up on nuances that I missed first time around.
While most folk generally like to believe that when they see something they miss nowt, the fact is that we’re not great at absorbing detail, it’s part of the human condition and that’s why eye witnesses are so bloody useless.

The Cleaner on bbc.
Reminds me a lot of the detectorists in its style of humour at times, very well acted and cleverly scripted comedy.

It does seem a strange concept to the uninitiated, lolI tried explaining the concept of Gogglebox to a fellow dog walker just yesterday as he'd never heard of it, he still thinks I'm taking the piss :)

Saving lives In Leeds:
New series filmed by BBC in collaberation with the open University and filmed on location at Leeds teaching hospitals. There's been four episodes already outed every Wednesday at 21:00 and believe another seven are sheduled to follow. You can access the four that have already been filmed by hiting record and then searching for them on the Sky.
Last night we watched a few episodes of which the first below is shown in it's entirety, concerning the rebuild of a gent who lost both his arms and legs in an electric pylon accident. A man that in essence should not be here with us today but fought on stoichly, overcoming insurmountable odds to rebuild a life for himself and his two dear daughters.
At Leeds General Infirmary, Professor Kay now stands ready to perform this rare double arm transplant, whilst down the corridoor in in neurosurgery kenan deniz has two patients that need some urgent brain surgery. The empathy dedication and care shown by these proffesionals, plying their craft in the guise of human decency is there for all to see, and we were in total awe of their skillset!
The remainder of the episodes were equally as good so we binged them into the early morning light. The surgeon that robotically operating on the little girl took our breath away. Basically, he sat separate from the patient in a robot, controlling it with high precision through the delicate procedure. I understand this type of tech exists in surgery, such as the da vinci bot in prostectomy, but to see it used in this way was very surreal.
Thanks T , not noticed it as it was not on bbc one , dowloaded them , watched the hands one this morning , incredible

I remember watching a horror film back the sixties where a chap lost his arms and had two more attached from an unscrupulous back street body part dealer.Thanks T , not noticed it as it was not on bbc one , dowloaded them , watched the hands one this morning , incredible
All was well until he embalked on a mad murdering spree. He was eventually arrested when his hands tried to strangle himself to death : /
He'd sadly been given the hands of a serial killer, hope this isn't the case with Jamie, the lad from Leed's hospital.
