Average of 23 iirc. Salute to them all. Indeed. And the rest that served. U571 is another favourite. Might be a good story. ….Nowhere near the truth though. The RN had captured Enigma machines long before the Americans had even joined WW2…….😄 |

Master & Commander seems pretty good in terms of presenting life on board. |

Talking of which, if you get the chance (and I think it's just finished), watch Battle 360. Tells all about the USS Enterprise, the Aircraft Carrier. Brilliantly done. |

Just watched on Netflix "The Final..attack on Wembley" documentary about the 2021 Euros final and the behaviour of some/many of England's so called football fans. Good watch 👍

So I've started making a list of all the shows I want to watch. Here's the ones I've ticked off in the past year that are worth recommending Your honor The last of us Yellowstone Star trek: strange new worlds Band of brothers / the pacific / masters of the air Top boy Das boot (series) 3 body problem Ted lasso (just on season 3. Season 2 wasn't very good, but loving S3) Band of Brothers is a must. But, once you've watched that The Pacific is a bit underwhelming, still worth a watch but not as good. Haven't seen more than a few youtube clips of Masters of the Air but I'll be getting that when, if it's released. Since we discussed Band of Brothers I've had a number of related videos pop up on YouTube. Some interesting interviews with the actors. This is a nice touch too. "Band of Brothers cast members will make a parachute jump over Normandy in the D-Day commemorations to honour the legacy of the soldiers they played." |
