The new season of The Crown starts soon, can’t wait. It’s such a good show. 

I've just rewatched the whole thing in anticipation.  Aberfan, Bubbikins and Tywysog Cymru were once again an emotional roller coaster for me.  The whole show is fantastic in my eyes, as an interesting alternative perspective on modern UK history (like a posh Forrest Gump in longform) but those 3 episodes are some of the best television I've watched, tears were shed.

The aberfan episode is stunning even though season 3 was my least favourite so far. Dunno I really think Claire Foy and Matt Smith nailed it as young Liz and Phil.

I’m very very very much looking forward to season 4 though. I’m in need of some more blockbuster style things to stream. Same goes for Mandalorian.

Hopefully the end of this year will wrap up with a few great things to watch.

I think I'm going to try and wait until the whole of the Mandalorian has aired before watching it.  I'm currently watching Star Trek: Discovery in weekly instalments and it annoys me having to wait and only getting 42 minutes after titles once a week.  I much prefer to burn through a 10 part series in 2 evenings.  Disco isn't to everyone's taste, but I thought the second season was top notch and I've come to love a lot of the characters.

Watched the first episode of The Mandalorian last night, late to the party I know. Was a bit confused why they'd filmed it all in an alien dialect with English subtitles but enjoyed it nevertheless. Just watching the second episode and I've realised that for some reason the audio was set to Portuguese, I'm now enjoying it in English. What a tit.

As strange as it sounds I think I actually enjoyed watching it in Portugese more. When I watch something with subtitles I have to 100% engage where as when its in english I find myself messing about on my phone or laptop and generally missing bits. I suppose thats why I used to like the nordic noir type series.

Defaulted to Brazilian what?

Should it not have been Latin in Latin America?

I have never watched anything twice but, you know, Game of Thrones. I always used to say that it's the best thing I have ever watched where I don't know what the f#ck is going on.  It's amazing what you pick up on watching something the second time around.

Just finished episode 8? of Series 5 where the White Walkers turn up. Bloody hell!!! the filming is incredible.
