Watched Untold : The race of the century yesterday on Netflix.

The story of Australia 2 winning the Americas Cup.

Really enjoyed it, I remember it as a kid when it happened but was too young to realise all the drama surrounding it. The New York Yacht Club were a bunch of pr!cks to put it lightly.
Using PM Bob Hawke's line, more like 'bums'.

I was late getting onto “Mr Inbetween” - then binge watched all series and absolutely loved it.

And only a couple of weeks ago I did the same with “Barry” - and same result. In fact there was some commonality between them - quirk, violent, a bit of black humour.
I am watching Barry atm. First series was a bit slow but just gets better & better.

Only a few episodes in but for those that like Sunderland Til I Die, will like another English Football Doco.

Called "Welcome to Wrexham". Bloody good so far.

On Disney +

The home of Dusty
Second series of the Outlaws on Prime Video is patchy and nowhere near as good as the first, but still has some funny moments, mainly around Stephen Merchant.

The Patient on Disney + is frustratingly short in episode length but really, really, good. Well worth a look.

Wife is watching Bad Sisters on Netflix, just caught a bit of it, very enjoyable. Sharon Hogan isn't drop dead gorgeous but is drop dead gorgeous.

It's great watching the Louis Theroux series. Looking back at his previous episodes over the years. Geez there's some real weirdos in the US.

Just watched this last night. Entertaining. I was only 13 at the time but remember it being huge.

The long-awaited Shantaram series is streaming on Apple. Stars Charlie Hunnam. A bit slow but not bad.

Watched the first couple of eps of season 2 of The White Lotus last night. Not bad, although the appeal of Jennifer Coolidge escapes me. Is she deliberately, aggressively repulsive, stupid and annoying? The show is much better when she's not on-screen.

i gave Shantaram 3 episodes. As you say, slow. Too slow (and going nowhere) for me.

Great show but agree on Coolidge. Must be a contract thing but her & her hubby are painful.

Love the show as well - But totally agree re: Coolidge.

So many better characters they could have rolled into this series.
