Given my current reading matter it's perhaps no surprise that, having made a nice cup of tea, I will sit back and watch Conspiracy [:)]

This is well worth a watch if you are interested in aircraft, and/or just incredibly interesting people [:)]

Godless on Netflix. A mini-series western which I found quite good and worth the watch. The biggest named actors have to be Jeff Daniels and Michelle Dockery.

Blue Planet II (again).

The wonders of modern technology allows us to learn more and more about the sea and the creatures that live within it. The penultimate episode continues the brilliance of those before it!

In the Galapagos they have seen for the first time, Sea Lions acting in packs to trap Tuna in cul-de-sacs, with one of the Sea Lions acting as a barrier to their exit. The Tuna are too fast for Sea Lions in the open sea and so they herd them to the coast...

Land crabs in Brazil that jump from rock to rock to reach the feeding ground of seaweed covered rocks when the tide goes out. Why do they jump from rock to rock? Because Moray Eels and Octopus lurk beneath to feed on them..... except both actually come out of the water to attack too!

Just completed watching Godless myself. And it was indeed "quite good and worth the watch".,

Jeff Daniels and Michelle Dockery might very well have been the main stars. However, the one I enjoyed the most in the show was Thomas Brodie-Sangster.

Blue planet II seems to be a must see show.

I'm finally watching the classic 1973/74 World War II documentary "The World at War" for the first time. Very Allied-centric, which is hardly surprising given that it is a British production, and I suppose a lot of the research is outdated. But it is definitely well made. And Laurence Oliver does a great narration.

The overlords of our ancestors were insane. Thats the only way to describe them. Just charge into the gunfire with no armour protection, no cover, no maneuver & robotic obedience. Just throw away the lives of tens of thousands all the way up to the present day maybe? At least the knights of the middle ages wore some type of protection! Argh! [:@]

Netflix, "Manhunt : Unabomber." An in-depth look at how an FBI profiler helped track down the Unabomber. Watched the first episode and it looks promising.

Just watched Waterloo again. Damn, those battle scenes are still impressive for a 47 year old film. And best of all, no CGI, just an awful lot of extras. [:D]

Indeed. I like the soundtrack too. I've lost count of the number of times I've watched it since the first time I saw it in the cinema.
