I mentioned BritBox in my previous entry. I've subscribed to Acorn in the past. We didn't watch it much so I cancelled it.
Earlier this year, I got a trial subscription to BritBox through my Roku account and ended up subscribing for a full year.
We've watched a couple of different shows, binge watching. The first one we watched was Suspect. That was interesting. Then we watched Vera, that was a lot of fun. Waiting for the next season to drop. After Vera, it was The Tower. There are only two seasons of that so far.
And now, we're almost through season 11 of 12 for New Tricks. That is a great show, very entertaining. Old people. We can relate.
What we find ourselves doing is "where do we know that actor from? What show?" and then shout out who it is. If we don't know, I'll grab the Fire tablet and look it up. A fair amount of Game of Thrones actors. And I'm not just looking up actors, I'm looking up slang. A "tosser" is a derogatory word for a masturbator. A "grasser" is a snitch. I'm waiting for the perfect time to yell out at Brian "OI!" instead of "hey" or "yoohoo, honey!" (which I've been known to do in stores when I can't find him).
Anyway, the day turned out to be not so miserable, we got a few sprinkles this morning. It's still cloudy, but the sun is trying to break through. It sure was nice to not have the house closed up and the fans off. Quiet.
