What are you watching?

I'm loving The King and Conqueror, it's good to see history done well on telly.

I'm watching The Great British Sewing Bee too, I love watching ordinary people doing something really well, something thats a skill, I will watch Bake Off for the same reason.

Tonight is Bettany Hughes on The Nabataeans, she started last week going deep into Saudi Arabia to look at the origins of their civilisation, its quite light and easy to watch, but it's a good window into something I now want to know much more about.

I'm enjoying Annika too, I love the intro music.

  • I very rarely watch new things. Usually I just watch what my wife wants to watch (ex. baking/cooking shows, Gilmore Girls, Downton Abbey, whatever). When I do watch something I choose, it’s usually only when I’m home alone and it’s almost always going to be something I’ve watched before. However, I do have a friend who’s got me hooked on City the Animation, which is an adorable and fun anime from Japan.

    For many years, it was just me and Akira Kurosawa**. Now, my son is old enough to be into him, too, so I get to share the love. He really liked The Seven Samurai. I'm trying to get him to commit to Ran. We've been watching some of the other Japanese classics while he's been thinking it over.

    ** To clarify, if there was an Akira Kurosawa film on the TV, I was left alone to watch it. We didn't have an affair or anything.
