This is me! I hate watching depressing things all the time! Someone gets murdered, a woman gets raped, people fall out and fight and it’s always very graphic. When I want escapism I want exactly that! I don’t think modern films do escapism anymore, there’s always a message which is admirable but not what I want all the time.

Very different these days though with the burden of proof being so high. Think about all those unsolved cases and wrong convictions that have benefitted from new techniques. Absolutely it should be the exception, but some cases completely warrant it - Levi Bellfield, Ian Huntley and Roy Whiting would be first in line if I had a say!
Music is my happy place.
I know it's only jokes for the most part but I'm tired of all of the "I hate people" stuff that gets said now. Like they said in Fleabag, "People are all we've got."
Fed up of seeing Betty White everywhere now 🥱
What's the one on netflix called?
There are many forms of mental illness. Some are very passive, some very aggressive. most are in between. People do crack though and might do something out of character or it might be something they have done before. Mental illness isn't a one size fits all. The judge would not have just have accepted her word but there would be assessments etc and he would base his judgment on that.
Where we should get angry is that people don't get the help and care they need.
Nah, I definitely subscribe more to the IT crowd view. "people, what a bunch of bastards"

I live for music, but older stuff. I got into a lot of the artists I like through my mother, like Pink Floyd and Bonnie Tyler. Then there is the so cheesy yet so fun pop of the 80s/90s I grew up with that I will never get too old for. I miss music being fun like that. I just can't seem to find that sense of carefree joy in modern tunes.
Absolutely!
Except my problem is the only kind covered in the media is the kind that makes mentally ill people all seem like dangerous criminals. It just isn't right.
I'm not giving him a character reference, I just think he succinctly puts into words the issue with how commonplace depression is when people don't take the initial steps to better their life.
I know you weren't. I just think his words are very hypocritical given the way he's behaved.
To add to this, sometimes I just want to see photoshopped, filtered to duck, size zero Victoria’s secrets models when I want to buy clothes, not rEaL BoDiEs
If you have never heard the term 'gammon' being used in the past couple of years then I suggest you need to pay more attention to the news and current events.
I always feel dramas like 'Anne' are made purely for shock and a BAFTA nomination. There's been a few recently that I haven't bothered with because they're just going to be dark, depressing and 'real'. Why the hell are they making a drama about Jimmy Saville other than to be controversial?

I watched the Stephen tv series with Steve Coogan in and I thought that was really well done - I think if it was done from the view point of Stephen Lawrence’s killers I would find it too much. So with the Saville show, if it was about how the police caught him, BBC was exposed for covering him up, etc and Saville himself was like a background character I would find that waaaay more interesting than a show about Saville himself.
I was put off by the Anne series because whenever I went on ITV hub there was a massive HD photo of Maxine Peake and she looked terrible and it just really annoyed me haha.
The police did not catch Jimmy Saville. So it can’t be from that point of view! He was finally outed by the bravery of One victim which gave others the courage to speak out. This was years after his death. I am appalled that the very institution that let him get away with the things he did or at the very least turned a blind eye will now be touting round a ‘drama’ based in any way on his crimes!!
Of course! Sorry, that was lazy on my part to say. Of course the police didn’t catch him.
I rather hear the victim’s stories than that of Saville.
Hahahaha, I take it you hold grudges. This comment was tongue in cheek but if I did get struck by lightning I know who’ll I be haunting firstYou againthe angry person that thinks everyone needs meds and didn't like I disagreed with them.

Fingers crossed tomorrow its you not me hunni
