Jesus christ, OP.

>>22457
Hah yes thanks.

>>22458
On her IMDB it's listed as "BBC Comedy Feeds (TV Series)" and searching for Vodka Diaries just shows https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6275262

>>22459
Don't think I didn't go to her imdb page first to know you're now telling porkies (at least by omission).

And it definitely comes up in search as well. You just had to click "See all results".

>>22456
Can definitely recommend this if you're holding off on watching it. It's got some scenes in it that'll make anyone who's posted in the resting actors thread feel distinctly uncomfortable, which is a credit to the writing.

>>22461
Why would I click see all results when it doesn't come up under its own name? Anyway it's found now.

>>22418

We will all be deeply disappointed if you don't try to chat up Jenny Ryan.

>>22439

I bet she'd let a bloke piss in her arse

>>22439
It wasn't Jenny.

All that really happened was a bit of abuse on Twitter whilst it was airing, most of it seeming to come from the type of person who'd have a crazy clown as their profile picture, but it's water off a duck's back. My work colleagues had compiled the worst ones to share with me the following day.

>>22445 When was it shown? Which Chaser did you get?

>>22446
They've only been showing new episodes of series 12 since the start of this month. Not saying which Chaser because one of you moon ovens would probably be able to identify me from that information alone.

Awkward sums it up best. I think I find it awkward because I want it to be funny as a Matt Groening cartoon should be but it just isn't. I don't recall anything from the first few episodes that made me laugh but plenty that made me think 'how utterly unoriginal and predictable'. Really not a fan. I'm happy to give it time since some shows need a while to find their feet - anyone remember how bad the first season of TNG was? - but I'm not going to get my hopes up. I'd hate to think that Matt Groening has simply run out of ideas.

>>22440

I find it very odd how quickly people start making cosplays of things. Maybe I'm just deeply cynical but it feels more like a play for attention to when you have a costume ready within a month of something coming out rather than a sincere love for the subject.

>>22441
I mean, a white wig and blue tank top with an X sharpie'd on aren't exactly hard to do.

>>22441
It's a given that if you're a cosplayer you're probably a bit of an attention seeker.

>>22372

Ah! I see you are well versed in Japanese culture.

Does anyone want to watch and rate TNG with me? I've just started season 6, they're all on Netflix.

I am disabled and have no friends so it would be much appreciated. I've been through and rated all of Voyager so we can discuss those, and I might re-watch and rate all of DS9.

>>22427
Sort a way for us to watch and I will.

>>22428
There's an app for that.

>>22427
I'm just doing a TNG rewatch at the minute actually. I know every episode back to front but I've not actually seen the blu-ray edits before and I'm totally blown away by how bright and clear everything is.

I'd definitely be up for some kind of discussion (here or elsewhere) about any episode of Trek (except Discovery) whenever really. I have a lot of free time and I ate, slept and breathed my old VHS tapes of TNG in particular from as far back as I can remember.

You wouldn't catch them showing East Is East in the local masjid.

You should see some of the raves the Dutch throw in the Westerkerk. Fuck being a Belieber, Anne Frank would have been off her tits on pingers.

Not this thread again. How many fucking times am I going to have to see Matt Berry gurning through a hedge before GoT loses its appeal?

>>22310
Likely a couple of years as it's not like we'll get enough posts to clear it off the list by then.

>>22310

More of a gawp, really.

>>22312
Yes sorry, that was the word I was looking for.

>>22402
Yeah you should cut the voiceover, at least during the interstitials.

Genuinely loved that and not what I was expecting, and Iowa was the perfect choice of state- well done.

Good work, nice twist.

As other lad said, voiceover needs some work.

>>22404
I wasn't going as far as to say cut it, just rerecord it. It might turn out it is better dropped but that is really more of a creative decision then I think this board is capible of making from our armchairs.

>>22386
I bring you comedic gold and the best you can muster is "Hmmm"?

>>22387
It's funny in parts. It grew on me with each episode to the point where I don't regret spending my time on it but it's not "comedy gold".

-not a Rik Mayall fan

>>22388
Maybe that's the difference. I am a Rik Mayall fan. I thought it was very well written though.

>>22388

> -not a Rik Mayall fan

I actually saw the prune danish bit somewhere recently, but I'm not sure where. Possibly some NASA fake ISS conspiracy videos.

Yeah I don't get ARE STEW anymore. I'm not sure if he's playing an aging, paunchy bore ironically, or that's just him now.

>>22380

I used to be in a band, and we didn't rehearse very much. When people came up to us saying it sounded a bit ropey we would tell them that was part of the act. Are Stew is very much just doing the same thing.

The interesting part is that he's very deliberately self aware about it, and plays on it in the act. I think part of him is rather cynically exploiting the "metropolitan liberal elite" who keep coming to see him, and he directly attacks his snobbish audience during this show.

He all but admits he's sinmply putting on an act Guardian reading ponces will enjoy in order to pay his mortgage, and thanks to the way he's cultivated the image, even being so blasé about it does him no harm.

Good review here.

>>22382
tl;dr Most leavers won't like it.

Well imagine my shock.

>>22382
Jesus Christ, that review was stupid enough to make me actually like ARE STEW's special.

>>22324

The endless disparagement of "elf n safety" is a major contributory factor IMO. It's hard to believe that something as ordinary as sugar could cause a devastating explosion. When people are primed by the tabloids to see health and safety as being bureaucratic, overprotective and out of touch with reality, it's doubly difficult to persuade them to take these sorts of risks seriously. Many industries have these sorts of subtle, insidious hazards.

>>22325>>22326

The regulations for this industry like many others are built on the backs of tragedy. Similar to how Grenfell will usher in a new set of rules for cladding, the explosive dust and gas regulations have built up over time gradually since Victorian mining disasters. Anyone involved should be well aware of the risks, and most are, to varying degrees.

Layers of dust are only really an issue if they cause something that needs ventilation for cooling to heat up. Ignition occurs when it reaches the auto-ignition temperature of the dust mixture. Clouds can be much more dangerous and any spark with enough energy can potentially set it off.

Sugar, flour, etc. are seemingly innocuous materials but the calories they contain are energy in joules in the same way that a battery or a stick of dynamite stores energy densely (I think?).

>>22327
>Layers of dust are only really an issue if they cause something that needs ventilation for cooling to heat up.
Or if a sudden draft or something dislodges it and turns it into a could, especially if it's high up. Or where an initial explosion dislodges more dust setting off a chain reaction.

I worked somewhere with a serious dust problem, it wasn't a combustible dust, but it was still a deeply unpleasant environment for the people who had to work in it and it still stems from the same management attitude.

Sorry to bore you lads, my dad would come home after every shift telling me that everyone in his shift would spend at least an hour pipe-vacuuming all the aluminium powder ready for the next shift, and those working the shift after his couldn’t be arsed doing a good enough job cleaning/vacuuming therefore everyone was in the shit from H&S. So this lead to a very bad atmosphere, and passive-aggressive finger-pointing from those who didn’t give a shit about the safety of others. My dad, in particular who genuinely cared about the safety of those he worked with and doing a good job of things, was one of those at the brunt of all this.

Aluminium powder is fucking explosive.

Whinging ‘cos some of the Welsh are wankers.

>>22329
Sadly there is probably a lot of that mentality in all walks of life. Only after shit goes down do people wake up to the risks. I wonder, is it better to be blissfully unaware, or to bury your head in the sand?

One positive note is that because the sales and marketing people at the companies where kit for places like this are made are mostly incompetent, a lot of kit is approved to a way higher spec than it actually needs. This additional safety factor might inadvertently help to accomodate for some of the general apathy.

>>22301

I find him very endearing because he's ultimately a bit crap but still manages to be quite entertaining.

>>22302

I wonder what fork in the road separates the life stories of Jeavons and Beno. Decent parenting? Two notches on the autism spectrum? Therapy? There but for the grace of god.

>>22303

Jeavons seems to bear the haunted look of a man whose parents had enough money to send him to boarding/private school, but not enough money for him to fit in at all.

I'm very tired and on my phone so can't quote the post but I vaguely remember people talking about Edd China and car shows in general.

Or 8 out of 10 cats does countdown when he's on, for that matter.


Like Sean Locke I prefer Lee Mack on the panel shows quipping off one liners or minor anecdotes rather than standup (for Locke) or Sitcom (for Mack).

Interestingly Locke had a very interesting sitcom that needs rewatching.

with every hdd crash I suffer I lose a little more of what is getting harder and harder to torrent.

>>22295

12 Storeys is great and should be required .gs viewing.

I have the DVDs if nobody can torrent them.

>>22296

I think you mean 15 Storeys High, mate.

>>22297

Fuck. Close enough.

They're all on youtube.

>>22298

Top lad. I know what I'll be watching during my next insomnia session. I'll see if I can't find a torrent and/or my local copies too.

Anyone who likes Rick and Morty, this vid is worth a watch:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6yg4ImnYwA

It's basically if Rick and Morty was set in the real world, and they were Australian.

>>22283

This strikes me as the shameless milking of a brand.

>>22284
I wonder if the repeated threats to kill Rick and Morty were aimed at Dan and Justin amid the stalled recommissioning negotiations.

Brian messing up the YT embeds can often be amusing.

>>22284

Personally I enjoyed it and moreso enjoyed the reactions of the general R&M fanbase to it (a lot of very angry people frothing about it being shit and szechuan sauce etc.). It's just an actual April fools episode.

I'm also familiar with the flash artist's old YT stuff, so that helps. And it reminds me of Doc and Mharti.

>>22277
1994 called.

>>22278
Did you warn them about ARE DIANA? I bet you bloody forgot, didn't you?

>>22279
I hung up around halfway through the dialup noise.

>>22278
Don't prematurely poo-poo it. I get my full download speed and servers are not monitored like BitTorrent is. It's very good for recent stuff.

>>22281
So what's the server?
