19QOS19 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I got it on Catch Up after reading how disgusted/enraged it made you lot feel. Safe to say it's not the same one as it was shit! It was about some guy and a young Bulgarian lassie. Obviously the one you are talking about isn't up yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajwffc Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Piper Alpha: Fire in the Night. Documentary about the Piper Alpha disaster that mainly focuses on the men that survived the disaster. With interviews with some of the survivors and the crew of the support ships that were involved in the rescue efforts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Piper Alpha: Fire in the Night. Documentary about the Piper Alpha disaster that mainly focuses on the men that survived the disaster. With interviews with some of the survivors and the crew of the support ships that were involved in the rescue efforts. The Piper stuff is utterly harrowing. More so if you work in the industry I suppose. But even more harrowing than that is that recent yeare have made it abundantly clear that major oil and gas operators still pay no more than lip service to safety and only forced changes in the design of these installations will prevent that many people losing their lives again. No doubt in my mind though that something will happen in the North Sea again soon though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's still a couple of repeats of this weeks to be shown, think there's one tomorrow at 10pm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
well fan for life Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Mortimer & Whitehouse: Gone Fishing is absolutely superb. It's quite similar to The Trip but without them taking on a character. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Naitch Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Been watching the Smashing Hits series on BBC Four with Midge Ure. Really interesting take on the 80s music scene. The last part is this Friday so I'm looking forward to that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He used to bang on about his favourite film being The Exorcist, and he rimmed William Friedkin at least 100 times in various documentaries and featurettes. Haven't watched/read him since that particularly unedifying period, but I'm glad he's moved on, at least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
