Watched upto episode 7 last night. Have surfaced for food and my EDF fix, and am off again to start on episode 8 before I get dragged out of my pit by my daughter later - I have to do family stuff!


One thing I have to say tho is - Why, Omar? Now you have a buckethead. Please grow it back!!!

Finished series 4 last night. OMG what a waste of life.


I know it's only make believe but how can anyone not want to change things after seeing this!


Their education system, political system and police are all driven by stats and test results, same as in the UK and the results of this are the same here as shown in The Wire.


SeanMG, how can you not want to be a politician and fight for change after watching the mind blowing series 4???

hmmm, yes a quick check done on Amazon: March. I may have to buy the R1 copy from the States.


Yeah - I was done with the first series in a matter of days. It's just so compelling and rarely here's a TV show with real characters, not just mouths for 2-D plot devices. I love the way in some episodes seemingly nothing happens only for events to come crashing down later on, the look into people's f-cked up personal lives and the mistakes we all make. There's almost nothing like this in other shows, except maybe as vehicles to explore this week's "issue". And it's funny ...

Keef I'm a recent convert (thanks to the EDF). It's gritty realism at its best if only for lines like this:


Proposition Joe: I heard your end would be covering my fee.

Stringer Bell: Your fee?

Proposition Joe: Yeah, I'm like a marriage counselor. Tell the man he oughta bring the bitch some flowers every once in a while. Tell the bitch she gotta suck some cock every once in a while. That sort of shit.

[Omar arrives]

Proposition Joe: Speaking of cocksuckers...

[to Omar]

Proposition Joe: I'm Proposition Joe. You fuck with me, I'll kill your whole family.


Trouble is, I'm trying to watch it with Mrs LL, so finding a gap between feeding baby LL and catching up on sleep means we're only up to episode 2, season 1:-S

    • Leon has come out at short notice to sort a few electrical things for me. Efficient, reliable, friendly and knowledgeable, I highly recommend him.  Thanks Leon.
    • Well hello Manor men, I went to PM from 74-79. I was in O and Churchill. I can’t remember my tutor but do remember a number of bods. I’ve read a number of posts here about PM and recognise some things. Mudway was an arse. Hardly ever changed his suit.  Guys I remember are Alan Palmer, Wayne Peck ( had an older brother at the school and I think lived Peckham Road, Longleigh House), Owen McClery, Junior Gayle(Wing Chung master), David Banton , Steven Green ( I think he had green eyes), Rodney Evelyn, David Barton, Raymond Gillman (deceased), Neil Warner, Horace Marshaleck (deceased), Steven Watson (two years younger) I have a picture somewhere of the school winning a cross country event against other schools in the South London Press I think.  Teachers - Miss Pugh, Mr and Mrs Webster, Mr Thomas, New French teacher 1978/79 Miss Anspach, Mr Baugh, Mr Nelson, Mr Patel, Mr Sparks, Mr Dowse, African PE teacher, hard as nails, Mr Fenton for careers, Mr Kemel Also, my brother attended Adrian Lewis, a year younger.  
    • One gentleman who kept the boards up to date with community notices i.e. local residents' association events, East Dulwich Community Centre, sadly died a few years ago. He never had the keys to the NX Rd board as this was outside his ward (now known as Dulwich Hill). The council changed the locks on the boards and we do not know who was given the keys. The gentleman's widow carries on with posting community notices but only on the odd couple of boards whose locks have been broken and she can lift the cover. If I remember correctly, it was the Lib. Dem councillors in ED that initiated the boards.
    • Thanks, that’s very sensible advice  and I’ll most likely follow it. I shouldn’t need anything from them, and if anything, they may end up needing me as they’re likely to go first. Really appreciate your support.
