It would make sense. I can't think of anyone else around him who isn't confirmed to be real. Gotta be honest, that 'torture' scene in Ep8 didn't go anywhere near as expected no messing around. Consistently impressed with this season though, it's been one of the best.

Ep8 spoilers (minor ones):

I couldn't remember where that Irish fella came from! Had to Google it, back from Ep2. "A few of them might have shat themselves"

I really need to watch that again, slightly more sober...

Christ that was confusing...

Still brilliant though...

Usual fare from Guy but always enjoyable.

The MI9 stuff from the war was fascinating.

Sending RAF pilots into missions with:

a Passport sized photo stashed into their pocked flap so local resistance could make them fake papers if they were shot down...

Compasses in their buttons and pens

Uniforms that turned inside out into civilian suits

Pocket Handkerchiefs that turned into Maps WHEN YOU PISSED ON THEM



Genius!!

EDIT - just about to start at 11:00 on C4

Ascender wrote: Mon Dec 16, 2019 10:56 am Thanks for the Guy Martin recommendation, whole family loved it as they always do with his stuff. I do wonder if there's any subject he could pick and not be totally engaging about?

In to the final season of The Man In The High Castle and really enjoying it although still no idea how its going to play out in the final set of episodes.

No 4k here but the quality of The Expanse certainly hasn't dropped with the move to Amazon Prime, in any respect.

If you've been enjoying it up till now, I think Season 4 will put a smile on your face.

Solid 8/10

Am trying to avoid Twitter today as I get the feeling its absolutely rammed with Watchmen spoilers for the finale which aired in the US last night. I wonder if we'll find out who Lube Man is?

Watchmen - Finale. Brilliantly mad as a box of frogs but a great end to the series. Great set up for a second part too...

Spoiler

Anyone know the novel - does the egg work???
