Why are we getting pop ups?
VD velvet donkey
El Loro Velvet, I did get a cookie acceptance popup earlier on the forum which I accepted, It was a bit different to the one we get every month as I didn't have to log in again. That's the only popup I've had today It read: "We use cookies We use cookies and other tracking technologies to improve your browsing experience on our website, to show you personalized content and targeted ads, to analyze our website traffic, and to understand where our visitors are coming from." and then the options "!

Dame_Ann_Average Tell you what, Velvet, Ken Loach he's the nicest man I have ever met...I was invited to a private screening of I, Daniel Blake. It's a night I will never forget. My preference by far is Ken Loach, such a humble man, he thanked me for attending,. It was a bloody privilege...I will always be in awe, although Lyndsay Anderson is good too... [ more ]

Baz Thanks Lori [ more ]
Moonie Once again thanks for keep us informed Lori [ more ]
Lori Yeah, I was just coming to tell you: our hosting company just sent us an email telling us there are issues with the equipment. They will be doing emergency maintenance to fix the problem--I'm not sure if the error message/robot was caused by the emergency maintenance itself, or if it's just more of the same networking issues that require the maintenance. Hang tight--a fix is on the way! [ more ]

Compare Midge Ure's CV to The Stranglers.
VD velvet donkey
slimfern maybe I tend not to watch these collectives...admire the sentiment behind them but annoys me when celebrities start jumping on the band wagon so to speak...I'm the same with award ceremonies....just a bunch of over paid folk slapping each other on the back. I'd respect them more if they paid more taxes & the government/s spent the public purse more wisely so that charities etc weren't needed. *gets down off soap box* [ more ]
Extremely Fluffy Fluffy Thing I may be wrong, but I think he was saying that the music and performances were so good that everything that came after was mediocre by comparison. Or everything for a few years after just tried to copy, so was a bit boring because there was nothing new or different. [ more ]
slimfern Never actually watched it, only saw the you tube video of Queen's performance.....wouldn't call them boring though. One of the biggest named groups I think is boring is U2....which I'll probs be slated for, but guess we all have our own music palate [ more ]

A year of Keir Starmer
CarnelianCarnelian
Dame_Ann_Average I think money counts over anything with career politicians Carnelian, I remember him 5 years ago supporting Palestine and condemning Israel, he has done a complete u-turn on this too. He accepted £50.000 donation from Trevor Chinn who is a pro-Israel lobbyist, he takes orders from the right wing Board of Deputies. Politics in England especially, stinks! It's a cess pit of corruption and dodgy deals that's why Corbyn had to go, he couldn't be bought. Strangely, Starmer is going to have a... [ more ]
slimfern Re: A year of Keir Starmer [ more ]
Carnelian I don't get it. How do you go from a working-class background like Keir Starmer, excel in law and rise to the top of your profession as a human rights lawyer and then be head of the CPS without having a brilliant mind? He then joins Labour with credentials that are a track record of fighting injustice and being very good at it. Yet since he's become Labour leader it's like he's been lobotomised or he has deep state "handlers" who know where the bodies are buried. [ more ]

Line of Duty
Extremely Fluffy Fluffy ThingExtremely Fluffy Fluffy Thing
Eugene's Lair I intended to post a fair bit about LoD last night, but I had network problems. I'll try to catch up with that tonight or over the weekend, but in the meantime... With hindsight, there are big clues scattered around the earlier series, including quite a few in S1. I found this Radio Times article very interesting as a summary/reference [Spoiler Warning, obviously! ]: https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/...ty-clues-you-missed/ [ more ]
machel Thank you, I recognised her but not where from, tried googling but couldn’t find a cast list with her in it. She was in trollied ! watching line of duty from beginning again, looking for clues! [ more ]

ITV have pulled final episode of "Viewpoint"
Eugene's LairEugene's Lair
Eugene's Lair I've not been watching "Viewpoint" (I only posted this thread as a public service in case other FMs are), but my understanding is that its plot involves a missing woman and secret surveillance footage, so it's possible that ITV felt some of the content might hit a little too close to home. Things are moving quickly and I'm unsure of the legal situation, but AFAIK there's no talk of any charges at the moment. The women involved originally approached BAFTA anonymously, and (I believe) only... [ more ]
Baz Yes , I saw that Eugene …..I thought it was a bit of overkill , seeing as the guy hasn’t been proved guilty yet . [ more ]

Major text-message parcel scam on Android phones
El LoroEl Loro
slimfern True....Anything I've ever ordered has been confirmed by email, with a tracking link attached Edit* Not that I ever use them....I just wait till the parcel arrives ...if it doesn't reach me within 21 days, I contact the company directly [ more ]
Extremely Fluffy Fluffy Thing I agree, why are we (apparently) wanting this tracking app. Most (if not all) parcel delivery services already have tracking systems. why are we wanting a nameless one? [ more ]
Carnelian Why would you want to install an app just to track a package? I don't know about anyone else but everyone and his granny wants you to install their app. After a while surely there's app fatigue? Another password another mostly useless icon on your phone taking up memory. [ more ]

Duke of Edinburgh has died
El LoroEl Loro
slimfern Agree Carnelian...I've watched the footage of his life story and came to the conclusion that he was a good man ultimately & was generally well respected by all those he came into contact with. It is a shame he came so close to being 100, but I guess the fact that he died peacefully is far more important. [ more ]
Carnelian I thought he was ok despite the racism. The Duke of Edinburgh Award helped many thousands and watching those old clips from the 50s and 60 he was quite forward-thinking for the day and he did have quite a sense of humour and that I'd never picked up on in his latter years. The country does tend to go into full-on North Korea mode on big Royal occasions. So 99 and in quite good health for most of those 99 years is pretty good going for anyone. [ more ]
El Loro Funeral announced as 3pm next Saturday. So expect most of Saturday afternoon broadcasting on television and radio to be that. Don't be surprised if football matches etc scheduled for then are rescheduled. [ more ]

Nikki Grahame has died
Eugene's LairEugene's Lair
Carnelian Sad news, RIP Nikki Grahame. I wonder how much BB itself was to blame. They took someone who was obviously a bit unhinged and played her for laughs. Endemol must have thought they'd struck gold when Nikki shouted "who is she? who is she?" and walked around in a winter coat in mid-summer complaining it was cold. That suggests anorexia to me. All the signs were there. Then they had that "Princess Nikki" series where they just put her in situations where they knew she'd kick-off, for laughs. [ more ]
Yogi19 Very sad news and 38 is no age at all. Sadly, Nikki was fighting her demons for a long time. [ more ]
Baz I saw that too .....very sad ....and no age at all. RIP [ more ]
