Watched upto episode 7 last night. Have surfaced for food and my EDF fix, and am off again to start on episode 8 before I get dragged out of my pit by my daughter later - I have to do family stuff!


One thing I have to say tho is - Why, Omar? Now you have a buckethead. Please grow it back!!!

Finished series 4 last night. OMG what a waste of life.


I know it's only make believe but how can anyone not want to change things after seeing this!


Their education system, political system and police are all driven by stats and test results, same as in the UK and the results of this are the same here as shown in The Wire.


SeanMG, how can you not want to be a politician and fight for change after watching the mind blowing series 4???

hmmm, yes a quick check done on Amazon: March. I may have to buy the R1 copy from the States.


Yeah - I was done with the first series in a matter of days. It's just so compelling and rarely here's a TV show with real characters, not just mouths for 2-D plot devices. I love the way in some episodes seemingly nothing happens only for events to come crashing down later on, the look into people's f-cked up personal lives and the mistakes we all make. There's almost nothing like this in other shows, except maybe as vehicles to explore this week's "issue". And it's funny ...

Keef I'm a recent convert (thanks to the EDF). It's gritty realism at its best if only for lines like this:


Proposition Joe: I heard your end would be covering my fee.

Stringer Bell: Your fee?

Proposition Joe: Yeah, I'm like a marriage counselor. Tell the man he oughta bring the bitch some flowers every once in a while. Tell the bitch she gotta suck some cock every once in a while. That sort of shit.

[Omar arrives]

Proposition Joe: Speaking of cocksuckers...

[to Omar]

Proposition Joe: I'm Proposition Joe. You fuck with me, I'll kill your whole family.


Trouble is, I'm trying to watch it with Mrs LL, so finding a gap between feeding baby LL and catching up on sleep means we're only up to episode 2, season 1:-S

    • A huge shout-out to Andy! He’s helped us several times now and is an absolute gem. He doesn't just do the easy jobs; he finds solutions to the difficult, non-obvious problems that others might miss. He is very hard working, incredibly friendly, great with pets, and always leaves the place better than he found it. 10/10! 
    • Here to add my voice to those praising Temi. She just painted my dilapidated home office in ED and did a fantastic job in just two days in a much lighter colour, including woodwork, damp blocker and filling holes. She's efficient, on time and I barely heard a peep out of her; she just got on with the job. I recommend her wholeheartedly. 
    • The residents & families of the estate are getting parking fines,  out of the blue , the residents parking system waa changed from Southern to Sippi with cameras put up in the car park and people issued with fines entering the estate for more then 10 minutes , families can no longer pick up or drop off family due to a new 10 minute wait fine. Residents are appealing with Sippi and Southern as there was no letters to consult of a parking change,  new waiting times or fines, delivery drivers are getting fines everyday,  if you get a fine,  appeal it, there is no signage up to say about parking fines or waiting time
    • Threads that devolve like this should be moved to the Lounge, so the 'comedy' can continue in an appropriate vacuum.
