The Gold

[Dark_Side_of_the_Lune]

Cracking soundtrack.

If only people in the London media in the 80s had been as switched on to what was going on around them!

It’s absolutely brilliant!

 

[Curryman]

An excellent series which, give time, I will finish soon, two episodes to go as can't wait for it to be aired weekly.

 

[Mexboroseasider]

It’s very good.

Anyone watched Funny Woman with Gemma Arterton as a Blackpool beauty queen?

St Anne's pier standing in for Blackpool.

I thought it was OK.

I know it’s based on a true story…but how do you get 6 blokes and 3 tonnes of gold in a transit van..? ..it would certainly have been over weight limit for van..?

I'm not sure they'd be that bothered about breaking the law...

It was two vans.

That clears it up..I thought it was one van…

Excellent series, makes you realise the corruption that went on in the police with Masonic help. Also the girl playing Marnie Palmer is a stunner.

She looks like a young version of Dianna Rigg.

and one of the vans did breakdown whilst getting away but they managed to re start it

 

[This is Ska]

Watched it all, in 3 days, bloody marvellous.

 

[Sooty59]

Not watched it all yet but we're enjoying it so far, miles better than that Endeavour which is painful now.

 

[fcblackpool]

Still some to do. Good series and I said elsewhere any show which opens up with Age of Consent New Order has got to be bluddy good.

It was Gang of Four which made me think someone knew their onions. Followed by Atmosphere later on

Endeavour was bloody brilliant last night.

Take it you heard John Robb on 6Music at 2 going on about his book and the Stranglers 77?

 

[fcblackpool]

Endeavour was bloody brilliant last night.

Nodded off half way through, but I imagine it was

 

[Mexboroseasider]

Endeavour was bloody brilliant last night.

I haven’t watched it yet but I read Fred is in it?

I thought he’d been shot and died in Venice in a previous series?

I’ve had my fill of that bloody book

 

[TotallyTangerine]

I love it..this is the last series

I’ve recorded it but the reviews weren’t very good so was in two minds as to whether to bother or not. I love most things set in the sixties though

Nah, that was two series ago, he saved Morse in Venice.

 

[Lytham_fy8]

Same here, it's getting quite ominous already. I'm going to miss it.

You'll enjoy it. Good cast.

 

[Curryman]

I've now seen the full series and would recommend it . Excellent acting and a good plot. I wouldn't be surprised to see a follow up.

 

[Captain Sensible]

Finished watching the series last night and thought it fantastic and, having read up on the case, it seems pretty accurate.

Great acting and loved the music. The whole 80s vibe was very impressive and realistic in that the houses, pubs, cars, clothes and hairstyles all looked true to the period.
