GordonD Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Don't know why I should be but the more this series goes on the more surprised I get at how completely unprepared anybody was to deal with this sort of thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it's shown on Monday nights on HBO in the US and A. It'll be from the HBO stream you'll get it on the Firestick presumably. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 'N Yellow Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Anyone else count to 90 in their head while watching that rooftop scene, or just me?Felt like a long 90 seconds. Terrifying knowing the guy who gets his foot trapped in the graphite is doomed, gives a double meaning to “Comrade soldier, you’re done”. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Henry Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 This is not a cheery series, but that was... unremittingly bleak. Wonderful, but not many jokes. Or even smiles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still feeling from the 1st episode where they didn't have those iodine tablets that seem essential. 6 hours ago, Red 'N Yellow said: Felt like a long 90 seconds.

Why we fight in Band of Brothers was incredible, great episode. This episode wasn't at those levels but it was fucking brilliant. Unrelenting. Telling the Germans a figure about 5 times smaller, patter merchants. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the iodine tablets I'm guessing aren't all that effective. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Can't remember if it's come up already here, but if you've been 'enjoying' this series, you might want to check out Threads. They share the same unremittingly bleak atmosphere regarding nuclear disaster, although as Threads isn't constrained by the facts of an actual event, it goes all the way down the rabbit hole to the very end. The Very. Fucking. End. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 An excellent series. I was expecting the baby to come out with 6 limbs but the narration and the shot of her sitting was just as powerful tbh. Utterly tragic. Gutted it ends next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From googling this it appears it was in a book a few years back. This is what happens when you have a power structure where nobody can speak up due to fear. If one good thing came out of all this it was the end of communism. It could really have been much worse and we should all be grateful towards the liquidators. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
