Anyone watching "what we do in the shadows", I loved the film and the TV series is the same daft premise, with added Matt Berry, it's blumin marvellous. 

Also, good omens starts on amazon this week, they better not screw it up, one of my all time favourite books. I'm already peeved as it has that ex doctor who pillock David Tennant in it who I can't stand. 

I started watching Once Upon a Time. On season 2 now.

 

I watched 1 episode of Santa Clarita Diet. That was enough for me.

IZombie is a far better zombie show.

 

The 5th and final season is currently airing.

Some promo vids from this season

 

Watched the 1st episode of good omens last night and it's fantastic, true to the book. Anyone who like Terry pratchett really needs to watch it.

A brilliant programme. One of my favourites. A great cast including the wonderful Lesley Manville.

I will definitely watch it, eventually. I’ve just started th last season of Game of Thrones though. There’s so much good TV at the moment you have to prioritise.

It is well worth watching.  I wish I still had Season 8 of GOT to look forward to!

Normandy '44. The Battle Beyond D.Day.

James Holland

Tomorrow, 6th June 20:00

BBC Four

As veterans gather to relive one of the turning points of the Second World War, historian James Holland moves beyond the D-Day beaches to reassess the brutal 77-day Battle for Normandy that followed the invasion.

Challenging some of the many myths that have grown up around this vital campaign, Holland argues that we have become too comfortable in our understanding of events, developing shorthand to tell this famous story that does great injustice to those that saw action in France across the summer of 1944.

Including perspectives from those who fought on both sides, Holland examines not only the nature of the fighting and the higher aims of the campaign, but also the operational level - the nuts and bolts - and in so doing reveals the true complexity of this bitter and bloody battle.

This story is about the challenge for both sides to adapt to conditions in a campaign of carnage that has rarely been acknowledged.

More than just well trodden tales of heroic struggle, it is also the story of two competing military doctrines: one ill-prepared for the organisational demands of a long battle, the other in the process of building the greatest military machine ever seen.

@erskblueThanks for posting. I'll watch that. James Holland is a very good writer and presenter. I've just looked at the BBC TV guide and there are a couple of good programmes after the one about D-Day. One is about the spies who were double agents who played such a key role in events up to, during and after D-Day. The second is a documentary about colour filming of the Allies advancing from Normandy to Berlin.

Did you see the programme on Channel 4 on Sunday? It was presented by Guy Martin and was about re-building a Dakota and carrying out a parachute jump over Normandy.

I'm off to Duxford later to watch a load displays of Dakotas and parachute jumps. The Dakotas and paratroopers then fly-off to Normandy as part of the 75th D-Day anniversary commemorations.
