I thought you were talking about Man Utd.
And Mrs Waylander watches it
The Studio continues to excel, episode 3 with Ron Howard is hilarious.

Its SciFi and a movie and about a thousand corner of eye moments where that is Trump, that is wrong, genius, different Mickey 17
Mickey 17 is like a BIG group of colonists heading to Matt Damonās Interstellar planet let by a Trumpite clown and a big HP Deskjet Printer and more
The marketing sounded he was an astronaut no he is the experiment for a huge church based migration from Earth and they are dumb
And something is gonna happen
Mighty clever and levels of clever
Very slow to get to it
Rogue Heroes S2.
Marvellous - said in a deep Northern Irish accent

From The Corner. Someoneās put a lot of thought into this synopsis. 
Thinking more about the announcement that the team behind Adolescence are remaking Threads with Stephen Graham, Iām wondering about the look and feel of a Scouse version.
We open with some shots of the Liver building and Albert Dock, with a voiceover reminding us how interwoven urban societies are. Cue a couple of hooded youths mugging an old boy on his mobility scooter and faded shots of peeling posters of Mel C and The Lightning Seeds. Wetherspoons packed at 9am. A young moustachioed Scally and his haunted-looking girlfriend sit in a bricked-up car overlooking John Lennon Airport watching Jet2 flights take people to Magaluf. On the radio, Drakeās cover of Jonny B. Goode plays before an injecting News Broadcast from Nick Ferrari announcing the Russians have invaded Denmark and NATO has promised to take back the Ozempic factories at all costs. Depressed, the Scally turns to his girlfriend and tells her he thinks theyāll need another kid join the eight they already have if theyāre going to afford Sky next year. He reclines the seats to Audio commentary of Mo Salah scoring.
We cut to three days hence, a graphic tells us the Russians have pushed through to the Isle of Wight and Keir Starmer has convened a special committee to look into the feasibility of nationalising the WightLink ferry to transport the last two remaining tanks over to the front line near Cowes, hoping to delay the Spetsnaz troops whoāve rather enjoyed looting Percy Pigs from M&S. The outraged Daily Mail calls for the use of pre-emptive nukes on Southall, Leicester, Birmingham and Bradford to slow the Russian Advance, before blaming the EU for waving the Russians through in the first place. We see Ricky Tomlinson packing his Volvo with luggage and setting off to the South Coast to mediate on behalf of the oppressed people of Merseyside. A CND rally breaks down after a chorus of Justice for the 97 is met with boos from the assembled Reform party, whoāve come to harass the Justice for Gaza protesters. Local taxi drivers are seen volunteering to take young evacuees for long drives in the Countryside.
Cut to Stephen emerging blinking from a half demolished terrace in Toxteth, not sure if a bomb has dropped or not. The burned and overturned cars, abandoned shopping trolleys and pensioners wrapped in rags offer no clue, so he pushes on, relieved to see an army of jobless hooligans making their way to Anfield, realising with a smile everything is as it was. Then in a blinding flash, a 5 megaton warhead detonates over the city. Cut to Liza Tarbuck pissing her slacks outside Sports Direct. The statues of Paul McCartney and Cilla Black melt and we see JD Sports and the Dole Office explode. We see a badly disfigured Jamie Carragher bloodied and rolling in agony, before the shot pulls back to reveal heās slipped on his Algarve Pool deck and cut his elephantine head on a cocktail glass. Jamie Redknapp and Michael Owen tweet the hashtag #prayforthePool and Gary Lineker opens the evenings MOTD with a few words in Russian welcoming an open debate on the future of the country.
We cut forward thirteen years. Language is reduced to rudimentary grunts and people pick through bins and refuse sites. So no change there. Thereās an enormous line at the Jimmy Corkhill Memorial Handout centre for the government rationed chicken nuggets. People are seen filing claims for radiation sickness and back pain with a local Commissar. As we fade out we see a faded front page of the Express wondering how Putin taking Berkshire will affect house prices as a broken TV plays old DVD footage of Stan Boardman doing his Fokker gag.
Fade to grey, and a Russian version of Youāll Never Walk Alone.
Just finished watching Fargo Season 5 again as it was a favourite.
Great script, casting, plotted and actedā¦
