Watching the Stanford experiment which is based on real life experiment. Only a movie though but there’s a Fab documentary called the staircase. It’s like reading a murder book it’s so intriguing

Friends, the entire series is on Netflix now. I watched it back in the nineties growing up but I recently went to Friends Fest and it rekindled my love affair with it. I find it good to relax to on an evening when I’m winding down, it’s not challenging to watch and it’s good just to have on in the background whilst I’m getting on with my chores.

@Tina it seems a bit dated now when I watch it, some of the jokes are slightly homophobic or sexist at times but I know it was all in good fun and not to be taken seriously. It’s just light entertainment. Whenever I put it on it feels like I actually know them, it feels like home if you know what I mean. I love the whole vibe of the show, it always made me want to live in NYC and have an apartment like Monica and a wardrobe like Rachel’s.

On Netflix, if a series has been dubbed into English, you can put audio into the original language and have English subtitles. We had to do that with ‘Dark’ because the speech not matching the lip movements was really distracting.

1
Tina

Oh thanks for letting me know I started watching Dark too and noticed again that same problem but worse than it was on The rain

1
Catherine

It was really bad. I have got quite used to reading subtitles through watching BBC 4 Saturday night dramas. I find them a lot less distracting than out of sync lips! ?

Tabula Rasa on All 4. It’s a Dutch production with subtitles. A really good mystery story in 9 episodes.
