For Fecks Sake Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 World at War, WWII in colour and pretty much anything else about that period I cannot get enough of. Watched, and read, many a tale about Stalingrad which by all accounts was absolute chaos and carnage. No sympathy for the Japs and how it all ended if I am being honest. Reap what you sow. Actually going to rewatch the World at War as it's been a while. Link to comment

Perhaps but without him it would have been a very different story and perhaps outcome. Can you imagine some of today's leaders doing what he had to do? Like some of the examples already mentioned above, labour would be worrying about Hitler's cervix and fuck knows what they would make of the Jewish situation ? Boris would probably be on holiday at the Berchtesgaden having one huge fucking drink and drug fuelled orgy with Boremann ? Link to comment
Guest milne_afc Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 The Beatles thing is about 6 hours too long. Some pretty nifty footage and musicianship though. Would recommend for a long haul flight or some quarantine viewing. Link to comment

YorkDon Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Thanks to whoever recommended Disasters Engineered.A couple in now, and very decent so far. The Union Carbide one in Bophal is a shocker. Link to comment

Think that’s the next one i’m due to watch. On the preview I think it said the Hindenburg was about the same size as 3 jumbo jets.Mental. Also didn’t know Challenger should never have been allowed to take off.Surprised there’s not been more made of the decision to overrule engineers that said it shouldn’t go ahead. Link to comment
jamiesd Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Finished the Beatles 3 parter. Last two episodes were superb. As soon as Billy Preston was introduced to the sound the whole mood changed in the band and they actually looked to be enjoying themselves. Total turnaround after the first episode. Never seen so many fags being smoked in my life, no wonder there was a smoking warning on the screen before it. Absolute legends. Link to comment
