The Paris Express follows the journey of the Paris Express train in 1895, and I’ll be honest, it was far more interesting than I thought it was going to be! If you’re one of those people (like me!) who enjoys people-watching on public transport, then you’ll enjoy this. Loads of observations of the passengers, insights into their lives, as well as the build up to the crash at Paris (which actually happened, by the way). At one point, I wasn’t sure if it would actually end with a crash – or a far more dramatic end. This was a great listen.

Third movie this week and the longest movie I've seen this year so far run time of over 3 hours long. Anyway the film its basically a love letter to 1920s hollywood and the beginnings of talkies actors getting used to speaking for the first time in between the partying which takes up the first half hour of the this movie is about Brad Pitts and margot robbies characters and there up and downs in Hollywood and their friendship with Manuel played by Diego calva overall my favourite movie of the year so far

So far, so very good!
So far, we (my wife and i) are about to finish Season 3. We have been semi-binge-watching for about a month, but with the episodes only being 20 minutes, its refreshingly easy to get a few episodes in each night, which really helps to keep the laughs!

The characters are great, if (slightly) lacking development - although Peralta is still the wisecracking clown in S3, he has matured just a tiny bit. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but some slightly bigger changes would be good - yes Diaz is able to express some emotions, briefly; Holt is more human etc and they feel organic, but sometimes it is a bit forced.

I have really enjoyed the show, so far, and I look forward to seeing any further development - or not! - for the remaining episodes.

Well worth a watch, as a bit of lightweight humour
