Home Fires returned for a second series. Very watchable, light entertainment program - although last night's episode was not for the WWII aficionado. Late version Spitfires in 1940, D-Day markings on the wings and angry civilians charging around RAF airfields to punch naughty, daughter defiling, wing commanders on the nose!

On a more sombre note, watched two BBC documentaries on the Easter Rising 1916 over the weekend. Very good - especially the one with Michael Portillo. The latter provided an excellent, balanced overview of what happened during that fateful week 100 years ago.

Easter Rising... that makes me think of Liam Neeson in the film Michael Collins.

Never seen it, but Michael Collins was involved in the Rising and of course, the events thereafter until his death.

I liked it back then. I understand it takes some liberties with the actual events but less so than other movies that I do not dare mentioning.

It was clever and about as well made an animation that I've seen in quite a while. All the years Disney has behind making animation films showed in this one, real quality.

Just completed watching season three of Mr Selfridge. Not much happening but somehow I am eagerly following each episode. [:)]

Now I am just waiting for season 4 to be released on Netflix.

New Godzilla movie under work. At least JSDF knows to shoot the damn thing from distance, unlike the US Armed Forces [8|]
You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.

They just had a special about the Easter Rising on The Great War. Not, I suspect, as detailed as your documentaries. But still ten minutes well spent.

Well I think if you've only got a 10 minute slot to fit in and try and explain this episode, then that was a pretty balanced and fair high level summary of the situation.

I've watched few YouTube videos by Metatron. He tells about ancient-medieval military equipment from armor to weapons, and he's also collector of them. This one made me laugh
