Bonekickers (2008)
This is long after the event.
I read the original BBC inspired reports and heard that they were advised by one of the experts from Time-Team. SPOILER ALERT. Having watched many if not all of Time Team programmes I have never seen them burn all the finds, which they do in Bonekickers, including "incredibly" a first world war tank. END SPOILER
According to some reviewers Julie Graham is a good actress. Not in this she isn't, but none of the others had a good day at the office. Some of the reviewers said treat it as a comedy, but I have seen better comedies and I wanted something to do with Archaeology, and a good story line. Which I didn't get. If I wanted a comedy I would watch a comedy. Thankfully not a second series.
And now I cannot watch anything with Julie Graham in. So watched about 2 minutes of survivors and switched off.
Grownups (2006)
Gives comedy a bad name.
If you find a bar man taking his shirt off for no reason funny, then you might like this. It is a one trick pony. No humour and a smut level that even a 12 year old would find childish. Some of the cast can do so much better than this tripe. Stay away from it. Watch paint dry, or wood warp. It will be funnier.
The plots are banal, the jokes telegraphed, then sent in a letter, and finally seems to have a big flashing arrow saying "Here is a funny situation and a joke coming along". What IS funny about a man that has not had sex for 7 years and then picks up a nymphomaniac gets engaged to her and then finds she has also slept with his father?
