Completed the main story on this today having clocked 69% (wahey!). Really enjoyed it but there were definitely moments where I felt I needed a little more guidance or fortunately stumbled across things. The beeline fast travel isn’t always the most useful either and can lead to a bit of tiresome backtracking. Well worth the £8 or whatever it was I paid for it in the sale though.

I was also born in 1986 and my recollection of them prior to this doc was vague at best. I knew the name Bros and that the band had brothers in it (wasn’t sure how many). I’d heard the surname Goss before. I also knew the When Will I Be Famous song but wouldn’t necessarily have known it was by Bros.

From memory Craig is not really mentioned at all. It’s purely about the brothers. As as someone has mentioned, in amongst all the unintentional (?) comedy, there are some moving moments. They won’t be the bits everyone remembers however.

Watched this the other night and nearly started a topic for it. Spent the first half an hour wondering if it actually might be a spoof. The bit about the conkers petition is pure Partridge.

Watched this on a big screen in a warehouse in Sheffield’s industrial area last night. Great surprise early Xmas present from my other half!

Not sure I’ve ever loved a racing game as much as I did Burnout 2 on the GameCube. A friend and I would play 2 player Big Surf Shores over and over, getting so good we could almost boost chain the entire race. A shame that Dangerous Driving isn’t coming to Switch.

I played the last one for about 25 hours but always did so badly I never felt the urge to rush back to it. Did also find it a bit too fiddly.

I’ve noticed this. Quite often looks pixelated in places, although not sure if my broadband speed and old TV are contributing that. Netflix is fine though.

Yeah, that’s definitely intentional. There’s lot of very deliberate choices in this about how things are filmed and presented.

Amazed this isn’t getting more love on here. Finished the final episode tonight and absolutely loved it. Such a bold show, unlike anything else on TV. The music and direction works really well and has you hooked. The shorter episode length really suits it too.

I’m about 8-10 hours into Golf Story, and the amount of dialogue is annoying and putting me off returning to it. I do actually enjoy the golf side of it but that does seem pushed aside for the sake of the “story”.

I did the same. As you say, think the momentum is with the Dodgers now. As a Giants fan, it’s a bit worrying!

I was talking about The Americans. Still waiting for the final season of that on Prime. However, I did have the same issue with Mad Men where up until a year or so ago the final 7 episodes were still missing on Netflix due to some rights issue. Waited about 9 months after binging the other six and a half seasons in about a month, it was a right pain in the arse.

It’s on Amazon Prime. Well, all of it except for the final season! Been waiting over six months since the end of the penultimate one and forgotten most of what happened now.
