(OP) User ID: 73158440 United States 08/23/2022 04:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm watching a small band of Forteans scattered around the World. Quoting: Anonymous Coward Howard 80664276 Good thinking! Is there a tv channel? I love Clyde Lewis, but sometimes his demonic stuff gives me the creeps. However, I can listen to Jason Breashears at Archaix.com forever. He is a Fortean scholar. On one show, he talked about Fort saying that frogs had disappeared in an English county. Suddenly a portal opened in the sky which rained live frogs. Think about that! Imagine the implications.

Call the Midwife.Even Antiques Road show Brit edition. And am a proud American. Can't stomach ugly current themes. Quoting: humbird cancelled everything and subscribe to Britbox. Somehow soothing. Very weird. What are y'all watching? If you like WW2/UK, check out a series from a few years ago titled "Danger UXB" (1979) which was a british bomb squad specializing in unexploded ordnance (UneXploded Bombs). Very well put together series IMHO. Link to IMDB page for "Danger UXB" [link to www.imdb.com (secure)] Apparently you can stream season 1 via Acorn on Amazon Prime video, or you can opt to buy the series on DVD. |

Very weird. What are y'all watching? Get onto Youtube and watch the many old WWII documentaries and WWII veteran interviews. There are very few of them (soldiers) left now. When I started work 40 years ago, I worked with men who fought in WWII, who would tell their stories. I used to go into people's houses who were WWI veterans, they too would recount their memories in the trenches as teenagers. They are all gone now. Now Vietnam veterans are getting old, but fortunately their stories are being well archived. It seems when people head towards their 80's, they become ready to tell their account in an less glamorous, factual way. UK Falklands "conflict" 1982 is interesting too. |
