‘Apple Tree Yard’ promo
No.
Houseguest leaves doors open, won’t wash up and plays music too loud. He is thankless, blares radios and makes more mess. And complains about being “overcrowded” and “solitary”. Houseguest leaves his shoes everywhere and doesn’t flush. He yells about newspapers and hob-rings. What a fecker - bitter, self righteous, off putting and woefully out of touch. He insults what we eat and DELIBERTELY makes a mess in the kitchen. The insufficiently grateful houseguest smells and has no gratitude.
Anyone see ‘Wonder Boys’ (1995)? Or ‘Every Which Way But Loose’ (1978)? Or ‘The Naked Civil Servant’ (1975)? Or ‘40 Days and 40 Nights’ (2002)? Or ‘Mr Deeds’ (2002)?
‘The Bodyguard’ (1992) was okay.
I may review ‘The Rover’ and the new ‘MacGyver’.
‘Dynasty’ is to be rebooted?

On ‘Neighbours’: Drab rages. Piper and Tyler are stupid. The new brothers are naff. Sonia hates obviously fake Dee. Mark sticks his nose in. Steph cheats. Toadfish is tempted.
Best Line:
“A baby you asked Sonia not to have.”
On ‘Hollyoaks’: Cameron is gone from the opening credits. Ryan leaves thanks to Ste being a ghastly liar. Goldie’s baby daddy shows up to menace Joel and get poisoned by Sienna. Why is Sienna living with the McQueens? This was not morally complex just senselessness. Eva was pregnant? Liam is thick. Esther has frustrations. Ste is awful. Ryan heads off to Canada with his 1 bag of clothes.
Best Lines:
“Raided my piggy bank to buy weed.”
“My whole life on post-it’s!”
“He’s finally come home.”
