Yeah I noticed he'd be on....

Let me know indeed...I'm sure he's having a great time.

He did rather well. He and his playing partner (Dave Bartram of Showaddywaddy!) got through to the last round (got a trophy for doing that) but they were unable to win the big prize. Yes, he seemed to be having a good time!

Well that's cool! I'm sure Blaze was having a laugh! Wish I could see it somehow!

It's a new episode (Series 13 episode 11), so I doubt it will be available anywhere just yet.

I don't know what BBC show availability is outside the UK, I know Zs can get stuff pretty quickly but I'm not sure it's legal!!

[Charger]

I gotta keep an eye out.

I do have VPN so region blocks are not an issue... 

[KiloDeltaCharlie]

In which case it is available on the BBC iPlayer for the next 29 days.

If it's not illegal, that's between the YouTube uploaders and the BBC/ITV/Channel 4/whoever else they ripped.

Looks like it's only up to s13e09 at the time, give it a few weeks and it'll be there. Stuff like The Big Fat Quiz goes up about 6-8 hours after airing, panel shows take longer for the uploads to appear.

Well that's Cineworld closed for the forseeable future with 45,000 laid off including 5,500 in the UK. A lack of big films has been blamed for it and the new Bond film being pushed back to April next year was the final straw for them.

Odeon, another UK chain in the UK have said that from next week c25% of their venues will not open during the week, for much the same reason, there's been no indication of any job loses.

My local Vue cinema is showing films still, but durng the week they are not starting until 2pm and final showings are around 9pm

Better update your home theater equipment, KDC.   

[Charger]

Yeah tough times for movie theaters too now...

There's a privately own theater in my small home town that is most likely facing shutdown too...

And who knows when this thing will end or will it...I think it's more about adapting now...

[Zzzptm]

Drive-in theaters are picking up business in the USA, though...

EXTREMELY saddened and very shocked to hear about the passing of the wonderful actor Clark Middleton.

His character Glenn "Jellybean" Carter was my favourite recurring character from the fantastic show THE BLACKLIST...and Clark was amazing in that role.

He passed away earlier this week from a truly deadly virus, the West Nile Virus at the age of only 63.
You are deeply missed mr. Middleton, but your work lives on.

Just Breaking...

RIP Sir Sean Connery

The legendary Bond actor has died aged 90...

[Charger]

Very sad news indeed...

Sean Connery was and will always be among my all time favourite actors. Such charisma such presense.

But his work and legacy and memory will live on...plus 90 years is a damn fine life indeed!

[Typhon]

R.I.P. Mr. Connery.   

[Jack the Stripper]

What a sad day. The best James Bond by far...Also loved him in Highlander, The Untouchables and The Hunt For Red October, but he was great in everything.

R.I.P. Sir
