        We're about 1/3rd of the way through a "circuit breaker" lockdown in Wales (not in England) to coincide with the schools half term break - it's not so bad so far. Some idiots complaining they can't buy clothes or a new phone in person, or go out and get drunk but ... At least with a "time limited lockdown" you know when it'll be over - much less emotional stress than "we'll see when we see the figures". I'm just hoping they have a plan for the end, and the idiots don't just congregate again. :sigh:

          I think it was doomed when they picked the title. Like Brokeback Mountain. Ewwww.

                We will be lockdown starting tomorrow for one month, but they already said that the length will be reevaluated twice in a month. I suppose that we won't be released for Christmas, since only one month lockdown has only limited impact.:~

                        I agree with your point that backdrops, location and scenery are fine, but the big problem is the story (or better lack of a story) that makes the characters feel hollow. What a waste of fine actors ! Well, maybe I just have to take some drinks first before watching this kind of stuff ...

                                Yep! The problem is a lockdown is only working when 90% are complying. So such half lockdowns are useless. As in germany: party guests and mass marriages are destroying the other peoples efforts.:mad::mad::mad:
