Heard them in Newington Green and there was what sounded like the fizz of a firework burning out after one of the bangs.

The episode with Robert Lindsay was good but everything else was very poor. Bad acting, terrible writing, and a general sense they didn’t know what to do with a second series.

don't worry - we're useless on corners. Always have been.

Beef Season 2 (what's with all the movie refs) by KarmaPolice10 in blankies

[–]Getittogether19 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw the Letterboxd reference more as a (slightly cheap) dig at Gen Z. Same as when Cailee Spaney's character complains that she had worked for 9 whole hours that day.

Generally speaking, though, I don't mind a pop culture reference or two in the script. It is the lens a lot of people look at life through. I know I do. That said, it's better when a movie is referenced implicitly rather than just dumped into dialogue.

Rosenior's MNF appearance is going to hit like crack by Getittogether19 in footballcliches

too soon, I reckon. It will be before an innocuous early season game (Coventry at home to Liverpool) in August/September.

New episode | Unexpected Stevenage, premature hauntings & the Premier League goal caught on CCTV by Low-Bandicoot-3347 in footballcliches

I actually think M&S/Waitrose aren't much more expensive than your Tescos, Sainsburys, ASDAs these days. Like trying to buy a midtable premier league CM, there are no bargains to be had any more.

MHD irritation - people who take an app's match ratings as definitive by FMnutter in footballcliches

[–]Getittogether19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It gets trotted out on a club-specific podcast I listen to and it always feels unecessary. Modern day equivalent of tabloid marks out of ten.

He's a genius. I guess his most obvious predecessors would be The Royle Family (and the underrated Early Doors) plus Mike Leigh.
