That seems a little far fetched to me.

 

 

But, but it's Harrison Ford ...who care how far fetched it is EC  

 

I know Baz. 

 

It's so funny though, they are now travelling through a mine in a small mining hopper at breakneck speeds, the whole thing is akin to a roller coaster, not the type of track you would expect in a working mine.

 

What makes it more ridiculous is that right at the beginning where they started their journey, the baddie has overturned a massive vat of water. This water has somehow caught them up despite the fact that at the speed they were travelling they would be miles away and also the water would have been dispersed long before it reached them as they had travelled through some large cavernous areas.

 

I've never paid too much attention to the IJ films before, but they really are stretching things massively beyond belief. 

 

But it is Harrison Ford 

 

 

 

 

I am quite happy to suspend disbelief to watch Indy  

 

It definitely is one of those films where it's essential to do so. 

 

Watching the final scenes where arrows were raining down on our hero, not one hit him, but yet they hit everything around him!

 

If I were the leader of the baddies I would send them all back to archery school.

Awwww, if only Ross Poldark smoked a pipe he really could be Renton.

 

But he doesn't. So he isn't!

I wonder if Sainty has a pipe like Sherlock Holmes's. The one he usually smokes when he has his deer stalker hat on

I'm just watching the programme about Sports Direct, they are just a big con. I'm glad I never have nor ever will buy from that shop.

 

  • Zero hours contracts for most.
  • 6 strikes and you're out.
  • A strike for excessive toilet time.
  • Published league tables of best and worst performing employees.

 

 They sound like a delight to work for.

I saw 2 of those, then forgot where and when it was on, so missed the rest.I agree it's off centre and funny.

Dialogue has a tendency to be 'delivered' now and then but all in all a refreshing departure from other tv comedy.

Exactly, good description of it Jackson 

I only saw the last 3 eps, so really hope its repeated. Definitely a refreshing departure  from the same old stuff.

I've never really watched the Indiana Jones films that closely, but just watching Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and IJ just jumped into a fridge seconds before a nuclear bomb went off, throwing him quite some distance, bouncing along the ground.

 

IJ climbs out fridge not dazed or injured in any way. Let's face it he must be in his late fifties looking at him and I doubt his body could take that sort of hammer!
