could you really not wait until Sept 22 (that's the day the DVD of Season 5 is released in the UK). Made the mistake of ordering a dodgy pirate copy of the final season of the Sopranos because I couldn't wait. Quality was ok as far as it goes but it wasn't the same.. Man's gotta have a code. You feel me ?

I hear ya bon3yard, but there are other series to watch in the mean time... I am currently very much enjoying Deadwood series 2, and the remainder of the series, plus series 3 (final series) should take me nicely up to Wire series 5 landing on the doormat... Other recommendations if you haven't seen them would include Sopranos (obviously) and Rome (bloody great IMO).

In HMV recently I got all 3 series of The Royale Family, plus the special they did last year for ?15. Mrs Keef and I have been laughing lots rewatching those, especially any scene with nanna in!


I really liked Rome, which reminds me, has onyone watched The House of Saddam over the last couple of weeks? It's another HBO/BBC project, and it's been okay. Doesn't paint him in a sympathetic light, but does make you think about some of the decisions he had to make over the years.

Season 5 is moving towards a tense finale, methinks. Without giving anything away, it can be quite uncomfortable viewing at times, knowing that something must give way (edited out of courtesy after Mockney's post, but must stress it was not a spoiler!)


I've only got 2 episodes left and then no more wire for me:'(


What can possibly fill the void?


I guess I'll have to start at season 1 again.

Damn it, I ordered the UK version so still have a month to wait. That said, I'll be enjoying it whilst you're missing it. HA HA!


We actually watched the first ever episode again the other night. Was quite cool to watch it again knowing what we now know.


Tillie Trotter has expressed an interest too, so going to see if I can get her hooked... I feel like a pusher!

      Bike stolen outside The Belham

      By JaneKinnin · Posted

      My bike (a ELOPS 120 step over classic from Decathlon) was stolen from outside The Belham this afternoon. I locked it up while I collected my kids, then the street was so busy that I left it there while I walked them home. Did a few other things at home, came back about 5.30pm and it was gone. Sharing just in case anyone sees it or finds it anywhere - it’s a few years old and the chain is a bit rusty/makes a clicking sound so maybe there’s a slight chance someone would dump it! Really annoying and just a reminder to be really careful with bikes. The picture shows the bike model from the Decathlon website.

      Anyone experiencing even greater issues securing a GP appointment with Tessa Jowell GP practice?

      Thanks, I didn't know that.  People are even more stupid than I thought then, if they are willing to wait hours in A&E for an ingrown toenail. I presume they don't get put at the front of the queue. Why isn't the 111 service more widely advertised? That puts you in touch with a doctor, who will advise on the phone or visit, and if necessary  you will be advised to go to A&E or they will arrange an ambulance to take you.

      It hasn't devolved. It's in exactly the same state it was when it started.

      A&E isn't allowed to turn people away at the triage stage, even people with hiccups and ingrown toenails... the kinds of ailments a GP might be able to advise against seeking emergency care for. https://www.england.nhs.uk/2025/12/aes-under-siege-from-hiccups-and-ingrowing-toenails/
