with luck they will all be dead before I get round to watching it.

I did accidentally lisetn to an episode once, that came on while I was
doing something else.

I couldn't understand WHAT was going on,. It appeared to be a catalogue
of stupid selfish thoughtless people undergoing the inevitable
consequences of being stupid selfish and thoughtless.

I now realise why the Labour party still gets 40% of the vote. People
must be like that in stupid selfish thoughtles sNorthern industrial towns.

Or they learnt it watching 'corrie'

I use:

http://www.sidereel.com/

Find the program you want, "search links" usually turns up a source to
watch the program on.

Not neat, don't know if it's legal but does it for me.

That looks like a decent deal. An episode for $2.99, or a Pass for more
viewing.

Thanks.

Not really. I first started using it to watch The Big Bang Theory (it's
now ubiquitous, but 4 or 5 years ago it was a bit "cult"). I've never
paid anything - I didn't know there was an option to pay
