What Are You Watching Now? - 2015

I watched the first part of And Then There Were None,  and I watched an animated film with the kids The Croods during the afternoon. We were playing board games when the Dickensian thing was on but it has been recorded for another time.

We finished watching all seasons of Futurama. It was fun, some episodes were better than others but I quite enjoyed watching the show.

It feels like cricket is on almost all the time in our house at the moment!  Currently watching SA v Eng test, but overnight watching Aus v WI and also seen some of the NZ v SL one day games.

Thanks for the info, James. It sounds intriguing! I'm afraid a lot of it would go over my head, though, because I've only read a few of his novels. Still might check it out though.

My next door neighbour is attempting to sing a long to Coldplay so I've just put down my book and switched on the TV to find Mary Poppins … and the sound is now turned up loud to drown out    Coldplay!

We watched bits of Bob Fosse's work on some You Tube thingys.  God, that man could choreograph!  And dance! 

we watched bits of Sweet Charity, American in Paris (Gene Kelly=divine!), A Chorus Line, Cats.....you get the picture.

 

CBSN had a great interview with Cicely Tyson and then Rita Moreno......what fantastic performers!!

 

Also the Sisters routine that Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye performed in White Christmas..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GE589gkOYz0

Bear in mind that they were imitating Rosemary Clooney and Vera-Ellen.

Just started to catch up with And then there were none, have seen the first part and thought it was a bit slow at first but it's picked up now.  Also got the last episode of The Bridge to watch.

 

have now watched both of the above series and enjoyed them - I did read And then there were none years ago and correctly remembered whodunit.

 

Missing The Bridge already  hope they make another series.
