Your Honor on Sky Atlantic. Pretty good despite the missing vowel in the title!

My mate was an extra in this. He is a professional artist living in New Orleans and takes on a few extra jobs to make ends meet while he gets established in his career.

We used to laugh at him at work saying he would never give up a well paid job. Met an American girl on a diving trip to South Africa and now living the dream....

we watched a documentary on Max Clifford last night, what a sleezebag. didn't show sections of the Britsh media in a good light
Louis Theroux did a documentary on him a good few years ago. Very eye opening about how agents and celebs work with the press, how the system works. Sleazy is exactly the definition to describe the man, horrible piece of work. He wasn't alone but he stood in the spotlight more. It was notable how few stood by him when plod came knocking.

The bit outside court where he comes up behind the tv reporter is one of the most bizarre things I've seen. Same with him posing for the photographers as if he was on the red carpet.

He was a real nasty piece of work. The only pity is they didn't bring down his network of friends who participated quite happily alongside him.

yeah, the bit at the end where they asked the guy that was i think editor of the Sun or NOTW, if the media should take resposibility for him getting away with it for so long.... "its Complicated"......his reply:censored::censored:

Parade's End - we are half way through the last of the three 90min episodes...it is so good in many ways - but especially for me in it's portrayal of the decencies but also the failings and limitations of good old-fashioned English (probably more so than British) 'stiff upper lip', and indeed of doing the historical but now out of date 'honourable' thing. Benedict Cumberbatch is brilliant in his portrayal of the main character. An Edwardian aristocrat trapped and confused by his C18th views on what constitutes 'the right thing' as the country plunges into, and then after much horror climbs out of, war.

I personally don't need an excuse to watch Elizabeth Olsen in anything ?

Also one of the best tv theme tunes ever ?
In same vein - found myself enjoying Public Eye.

Classic mid-60s to mid-70s mostly low thrills Frank Marker private eye drama stuff, with plenty of 'time-machine' outdoor location shots of Brighton, Clapham, Windsor and Eton - and the theme tune is just one of the best :)

How/where can you get it?

Saw episode 1 on catch up, then it disappeared. Now its back but can only seem to get it from episode 6 onwards. (On All 4)
I don't know I'm afraid. I set up a series link on my sky planner so either watched it at the time or within days of it being shown.

You may have to leave it a while and then it will be loaded on a channel somewhere again. I don't know why they do that, it's very annoying.

Ta. Never mind. As you say, likely to come back in full at some stage. Eventually.
