I just watched a French film ‘The intouchables’ seen it before years ago, but was worth watching again. Watched ‘The Ballad of Buster Scruggs’ (Netflix) which was pretty good, definitely amusing.

A series of travel adventure videos on YouTube by David Adams where he journeys “To,the Ends of the Earth” in Pakistan, Afghanistan, India, Iran, Georgia, Ethiopia, Niger, and Bolivia. A bit dated but I found them quite interesting and some of the scenery is stunning.

Right now a series called Treasures of the Indus on the art and architecture of the Indus Valley. Before that, Alistair Sooke’s Treasures of Ancient Rome. These are available in Canada through our Knowledge Network.

Currently binge-watching Doctor Who with brief interruptions of Star Trek Discovery.

BritBox: As Time Goes By

I love that show, the local PBS station used to air it along with Keeping Up Appearances. If I had the money, Britbox would be the service I’d buy.

I’ve been watching SMILF and Better Things. Interesting so far.

Dangerous Borders, a BBC documentary about the border between India and Pakistan. Two journalists (one Hindu, one Muslim) whose families came from Punjab, travel separately along side of the border sharing their encounters with the people and digging into their own family histories.

And an episode of CBC’s the Murdoch Mysteries.

We watched the whole run of Murdoch over the past few months– there are twelve seasons. Like many shows with such long runs, it declined in quality eventually, but still, there are some fun episodes in each season. It’s weird though, how much Murdoch himself resembles a ventriloquist’s dummy. Yannick Bisson did a great job of playing such a literal minded stiff. Helene Joy is a very handsome woman.

Foyle’s attitude is worth aspiring to. Brevity, bravery, focus, understatement.
Messerschmitt had no chance.
The Spitfire; a work of art.
