I’ve seen the later film with Denis Waterman. Classic gritty British kitchen sink drama. Acting and direction is so good it feels more like a fly on the wall documentary at times. Very moving. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_the_Junction_(The_Wednesday_Play) Through the door there came familiar laughter, I saw your face and heard you call my name. Oh my friend we're older but no wiser, For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Cheers 👍🏻 Glad you're enjoying it. Gets better with each series I thought. Defending Jacob 6/10. Assistant D.A investigating the murder of a schoolboy is taken off the case when evidence starts to point toward his own son as the prime suspect. He then has to try and steer the investigation from the sidelines. Started well but became a bit muddled and I saw the ending coming from a mile away and it fizzled out for me.

She goes against tradition and pursues a career as a comic despite the prejudices that go with it in that era. It's fun and funny, with quite a cast of characters.

Not to mention some other excellent British actors in the film.

Very nice to have something pretty light-hearted/good-natured to watch when most of the other good shows tend to be rather grittier.. That said, I'm looking forward to the last series of Better Call Saul which is out before too long, I think. For the comic book stuff, I watched the first episode of Moon Knight the other day. A bit WTF? at times, but in a good way.

I just thought Variations on a similar theme with Mrs Maisel though  it sounds like Maisel is far lighter in tone. I may give it a whirl with Mrs Sandford. Peake is a brilliant actress so no argument from me on that score. “I know writers who use subtext and they’re all cowards.” –Garth Marenghi

Brilliant! Straight on to the 3 season for me. “I know writers who use subtext and they’re all cowards.” –Garth Marenghi

If you’re easily offended or don’t like Ricky Gervais’ normal stand up I’d advise against this strongly as it pushes the boundaries more than normal. If however, you are like me and the think the man is a genius and extremely funny, then what you waiting for? “I know writers who use subtext and they’re all cowards.” –Garth Marenghi
