Loving that Dynasties with David Attenborough on the BBC. Especially loved the first one about David the Chimpanzee. I was willing him on after he was attacked and left for dead by a few of the rival males.

Personally i say good on the crew for rescuing the Penguins in the second episode. When you have spent 1 or 2 years in some of the harshest whether conditions on earth you are bound to form a bond with something you are filming. Humans are wiping out species at a alarming rate due to all sorts of reasons. I say good on em for giving the little blighters a chance.

Dickie was the actor, Vid. He died 4 years ago. It's his brother, David, who talks to the animals.

Even if I had no interest in history I'd watch it just for Alice :thumbup: A fine example of an intelligent woman who just happens to be easy on the eye.

Watched Louis Theroux's Altered States on polyamory last night, but boy was it tough work.
The first ten to fifteen minutes I was hovering over the off button because they all had that same glazed look as born-again Christians : slightly superior, slightly off-kilter as a human being and very, very deliberate in every word and action.

I'd rather never be intimate with anyone again that go through what that poor husband, Larry, has experienced.

Really, really weird TV .. even for Theroux ! :wtf:

Struggling to find anything good to watch at the moment.

I am saving the Doctor Whos so I can eke them out. Waited decades for a female Doctor - Savouring every second!


Last good thing I watched was Killing Eve!
