Is this an Oz show? Do you ever have riots like we do down there, mate?

There you go. Only one season. But could've been the best show on tv.

I'm surprised no one remembers this tv series...... It's English/British/UKish.....the gov't of the day gets overthrown in a military coup. They establish iron control of the media. All dissent is violently suppressed.

It follows the lives of a few key characters, and builds to a satisfying conclusion at series end. If you can get it/DVD do so it's bloody good.

Riots??? The last proper riot was about 30 years ago when a mob of bolshi unionists stormed Parliament House and sacked it. Piss weak scared Security did nothing. We had some affrays during covid, The media always plays a part in stirring things up.

I've seen the Riot Squad Police van in the Cross regularly, but they're probably just doing a "Maccas Run".

Loved Starblazers growing up. I used to watch it in the morning before going to school. I never got sick of the whole Wave Gun firing sequence.
Cheers!

@ Good on ya Scotch75.

There's a lot of Aussies at subsim. I honestly think we're the most mature nationality here....no trolling, no heated arguments, no bloody politics...we deserve "Best of Subsim" collectively as a whole group :yep::yep:

Anyway here's another beaut series from Crunchyroll, I'm sure we all know and love...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNA9e9ESX7s

"Girls und Panzer" ...been posted here before, I know, but it's good to have a refresher.
The premise of the whole show is ridiculous, but hey it's highly entertaining, with great storylines:yep: and character development....puts a lot of soapies to shame.

I love the Italians...Anchovy, Pepperoni....and the other one :hmmm:

I always think of you blokes as "us" (poms) only a long way away. I know you probably won't like that (:haha:) but of course the differences always make this more interesting - like wot you two just posted here. That and the crocs and the spiders

Well, we were the Pommy convict colony [emoji1787].

Good morning Sunshine. This is what I woke up to about 3 weeks ago. It's about as big as the palm of my hand. The flash is even reflecting in its eyes.

Cheers!

The ageing hippies in charge now say "they're harmless".....Bulldust, anything that big ( and bigger ) and aggressive, is not bloody harmless.

I remember an Area Manager come running into our office some years ago, a big bloke he was, trembling with fear....."Help there's a dirty great spider in my car...."....no one volunteered....I went out there with him.....no spider......turn on the aircon....out he popped, a tyrannasauros Huntsman, rearing up on his back legs ready to strike... We all took a step back. He grabbed hold of the broom we stuck in, and we got him out of the car......and had a stiff drink afterwards.

Another time me and a mate were having a wargame at his place in the city, and a dirty great black snake - poisonous/deadly, comes into the garage, luckily there was a cricket bat handy or I wouldn't be here today.

Don't get me started on Dropbears.....Brrrr, cold sweat.....

Eichhörnchen 03-14-25 08:13 AM

I was thinking of coming there to live when the war starts - but maybe it's safer here

Don't worry mate, Skippy'll save you. :)

Eichhörnchen 03-14-25 09:04 AM

We loved to watch 'Skippy the Bush Kangaroo' - we never once said well that's ridiculous
