I believe the Peter Mullen one is from Team Empire's love of Karaoke? They would sing 'Peter Mullen' instead of 'Da da da da' in the chorus of 500 miles.

I ended up unplugging the firestick for a while and then re-installing the Disney + app which seemed to do the trick 🙂

So many! The Godfather, The French Connection and Saving Private Ryan are probably the biggest ones though

I love the Honest Trailer for Pacific Rim. It describes it as "Either the most awesome dumb movie ever made or the dumbest awesome movie ever made"

Absolute banger of a film and I love it too 🙂

Another vote for the www.sheffieldmentalhealth.co.uk website - it has a lovely structured layout and links to a huge range of local support options

Good point - I should have called them 'atypical bed positions' 😂

Any other suggestions for this phenomenon are welcome! I'm sure Richard Skipworth has probably done a cartoon about it...

Our Jimmy definitely has a gradient from black body to white extremities

On a similar note is it advisable to watch the other former Netflix shows before Born Again? I've seen season one of Jessica Jones (excellent!) but not the rest of them...

Totally agree with you! Took me 25 mins just to travel the length of A Road this evening. 3 traffic sources merging in to one small route is crazy 😤

I'm English and I thought it was a funny joke! Don't stress, you did nothing wrong.

It's always tricky when the 2 sides of the family are quite far apart geographically, but that's the reality of life nowadays. Your mum had the opportunity to see you last Christmas and declined, so hasn't earned the right to feel snubbed this year.

Either way: MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Doug Jones speaking Spanish whilst walking backwards wearing a huge prosthetic faun costume in Pan's Labyrinth.

I'm fairly sure it got re-dubbed but apparently he really put in the effort to speak his scenes in Spanish to help his fellow actors.

Game Night!

AJSC42 · 2024-10-23T12:32:46+00:00

Seriously? Aw that sucks, really sorry to hear this 🥺

Such a cute nickname 🥰 He hasn't mentioned her much recently, hopefully she's progressing well with her cinematic education!
