    This is arriving to our tv this week. The big question. Is it worth watching, or should I just pass on it?

    I am a great fan of Len Deighton's. This reminds me of that I have have often regretted throwing out that book, when cleaning out the house after my dad. I could not keep every book... The IMDB rating 6.5 is quite low. I often find them reliable. But in this case I would definitely give it a chance...

    ... such stuff as dreams are made on

      I am about to watch episode 3 and so far it has been a little slow but not bad. The Len Deighton book was excellent and the series so far hasn't deviated much. Unlike the Man in the High Castle, it is set in England and is also more about a detective investigating a murder under massive political pressures.

      - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

        "High Castle" was based on a Philip K Dick book of the same name, and that was damn good. So the TV series is probably rubbish ... I don't know, Herself won't watch anything to do with WWII and I don't watch the idiot box on my own. :laugh:

            The series is very good and the actors are great, my girlfriend adored that series (and she's pretty picky).

              High Castle was very well done, really good TV series, differs substantially from the book although contains the essence of it.

                  Watching it now. Not sure if it's the regional accents or the mumbling, but not the clearest audio.

                      Very good! (handwave) And Antarctica, just like the moon, are both uninhabited and absolutely uninteresting.

                      The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
                      This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a fucking golf cart.

                        It's about an alternative history story in that the Nazi win in Britain and the SS are in charge.

                        Another one? God forbid that TV writers should choose something original or interesting to write about. I'll bet 1,000 lines of code that they know p1ss all about German mentality and behaviour -- why write anything resembling reality in, when you can use cardboard cut-outs?

                        I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!
