Very, very good. Opening scenes filmed at Elland Road too.
Heard it was a really long film?

On TV I been (again) catching up with some stuff I recorded. Justified - with the excellent Timothy Olyphant (I first saw in Hitman only recently and enjoyed that movie) - on 5 USA is very good. Like Sons of Anarchy in some ways, and having now watched episodes 1 and 2, I am eager to see more.

Like some Peter Kay show I was forced to endure last night LB I do not get.

Ditto League of Gentlemen.

This - on the other hand - cracks me up.

As I normally do with new series I taped the first few of both Boardwalk Empire and Blue Blood on Sky Atlantic. Have to say that both are worth the watch.

The former is like a prohibition-era Sopranos, while the latter follows in the fine tradition of Hill Street Blues, NYPD Blue and Southland.
