Jessie Pinkman Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 A fabulous documentary on Netflix called "Making a murderer" that follows the unjust IMO arrest of Steve Avery. It shows how the corrupt Mantovoc County sheriffs department hid evidence, a proper stich up. I've thoroughly enjoyed all of the Gomorrah the series. I've just 3 more episodes to go of the final season 5, so that will be my late night entertainment for the next 3 nights. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Mike, I'm halfway through season 2 of FROM described as Science Fiction Horror by the makers. I was late catching on with this series. Some really interesting characters and really good monsters. A big thumbs up FROM me There's a 3rd season planned. I've recently purchased 4 seasons of BANSHEE on DVD, fantastic entertainment. And I've picked up a copy of THE NIGHT OF on DVD starring John Turturro & Riz Ahmed, an excellent thriller, 8 episodes in all Top Boy is on my must watch list.

Simon T Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 This week I've been mostly watching: Code of a Killer - 2015 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3847626/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_q_code%20of%20a Alec Jeffreys used to be one of my lecturers on genetics. Outside his lab there was a pin board with requests for help that he's new 'DNA' work might solve; a chap from the USA sent one solitary hair asking if he was related to the Royal Family. why Professor Sir Alec never got the Nobel Prize is a travesty IMHO.

Simon T Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 (edited) This week I've been mostly watching: Crime https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12759778/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_1_tt_7_nm_0_q_crime 1 is better than 2 IMO. Still, like Stephan Graham, anything with Dougray Scott is worth a watch. (Ken Stott too, so isn't going to be bad) He's from Glenrothes where they had a few of those Northern Soul nights, I believe?

Woodbutcher Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 The BBC four part mini-series "The Reckoning" about Jimmy Saville is a "must see".

It was, along with the no comment the way they let them go into the interviews with blankets wrapped around them, feign falling asleep, deny that the person shown to them on video is clearly them shows the level of society they have to deal with. The one the other week where the mother had driven the murderers to the scene and back and denied knowing her own son was unbelievable, her a social worker too. I looked into the reasons behind the "no comment" interview and although I now understand why it is used the amount of police time it wastes when the evidence is there of their guilt should be reflected in the sentence when found guilty.If criminals knew they would get say an extra six months on their sentence after giving a no comment maybe they would think twice. I realise the law is far more complex than we as laymen possibly understand but watching programmes like 24 Hours gives me the impression that often criminals have too many rights and the sentence doesn't always fit the crime.

What is a vo prison? For a visit to be arranged, the visitor must be in receipt of a Visiting Order (commonly known as a VO), which will have been sent in the post by the prisoner. A VO is a form which a prisoner must complete in order for a visit to take place. The person seeking to visit must first receive a visiting order ‘VO’ which is completed by the prisoner and sent to them. This will state the name and address of those visiting, and a unique reference number to be used when booking the prison visit. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
