Game of...

[Lizzie]

Hello,

As it's Friday, I hope you will stick with me here, but I need to get this off my chest! Three words...Game of Thrones!!

Everywhere I go, my teamates, friends, family are talking about this TV show! I imagine if you are a fan, you may take a gasp when I reveal that I am still on series 3...I have been on series 3 for about 2 years now...

Are any of you watching this show or are you trying to avoid it like me??

[I should probably add, no spoilers please! - hehe]

@Lizzie,

Hi ya Lizzie.......There's more 'Ham' in me than a Sainsbury's meat department!!

Just never been able to find the 'Dressing Room' .....

My God son Ben Mchugh found it though...landed himself a lead on Broadway....we are all very proud of him.

@Farah1.....Farrah, what is going on here, are you trying to set a new participation record....or is there a singular lull in your life at the moment that requires you to find something better to do with that keyboard of yours!!  :-))

Cheers.....Rob

lol @J-Renato0 @Lizzie I wouldn't miss an episode either 😄 

Immagine all those scenic plots with trash parties and damage claims, abusive guests and police reports, bloody and wetted sheets etc ... and then camera flips and zoom into Horatio Cane sunglasses ..... and he says: IT'S TIME... TO HIT BACK ! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEE  won't get fooled agaaaiiiiiinn.... 😄 😄

@J-Renato0 sounds like fun, can I take part only with the good guests? Ha ha 😄

I love shark tank. I like a show where I can learn something from it, especially if it is business/entrepreneurship related.

Another show that I really like is Amazing Race as I am really into traveling.

For the Discovery Channel show, I enjoy watching sea life (sharks, whales, etc). It always fascinates me how much I don't know about the life down there...

Aw it is funny @Farah1 and @J-Renato0 in the UK we have a show like Shark Tank called Dragons Den, where you pitch you idea and the Dragons (i.e investor) rip you idea to shreds or entice the entrepreneur into an investment deal. I do find it fun hearing about all the ideas, especially when you see the product on the shelves in a store! 

Oo I haven't heard of Amazing Race, what's that Farah? 

I too like my geographic show, things like Planet Earth are just incredible, at the end they have started to share a 10 minute overview of how they capture all of the amazing footage...often it is a waiting game...

@Lizzie so Amazing Race is a competition show that lets its contestants travel around the world. Usually, there are about 10-12 couples, it can be friends, mother-daughter, or whatever it is. Let's say it starts at Seattle then the host will give the first clue, for example, "fly to Singapore, and go to Haji Lane Road and find your next clue" then the contestants will try to purchase a flight that arrive there as soon as possible then there will be road block/challenges. Then whoever check-in last to the pit stop at the end of the challenge will be eliminated, it goes like that until the final round (3 couples) then whoever check-in first will win a quarter of million $.

Also, at each pit stop, whoever check-in first will receive prizes (can be cash, can all paid trip for a week somewhere, etc). Usually, at the end of the show, these people end up traveling to many different countries and city FOR FREE + if they win then they get the prize. Until today, I am still planning to join at some point.
