Anyone got Apple TV? I've just got a three months free subscription but I can't think of anything to watch. I've seen Slow Horses and Severance but is there anything else worth looking at? There's something called 'Masters of Air' but I don't know anything about it.
If I had Apple TV, I'd definitely check out the movie "Greyhound". Destroyers on convoy duty in the North Atlantic - my Old Man spent most of his war doing exactly that. Tom Hanks is the DD skipper - probably way too old for the role but what the heck.
Masters is another series about the war. In the vein of Band of Brothers and The Pacific but the subject is the US 8th Air Force based in the U.K. I've not seen it but have heard mixed things about it.
I think Apple also has the Catch 22 mini-series - again haven't seen it but the casting looks odd. Plus like all these film adaptations seem to do, they drop Chief Halfoat. Which sucks. He's one of my faves.
