Grace is bursting with recommendations for What to Watch this weekend (warning that some/all of these should just simply be watched alone or at the very least not with family… grandparents, the list goes on!)
Weekend Recommendations from Grace
The next instalment of Rivals Season 2 is ready to binge watch… (Spoiler Alert!)
We have already seen Season 2 Part 1 which was the first 6 episodes. Episode 7 kicks off Part two of Season 2 and it landed on November 11 with the first three episodes. We pick up where we left off with the shocking death of Monica, long-suffering wife of TV executive Tony. Tony’s emotional reaction to her death dominates much of the first episode, as well as the reality of his ruptured family. The nudity, the antics, the affairs… it’s all still there in spectacular Jilly Cooper style. But there is actually a considerable amount of depth in these episodes from the AIDS epidemic, to managing fractured families. Top of the viewing list for this weekend.
If you fancy a trip to the cinema instead, Grace really, and we can’t stress it enough, really recommends Wicker starring Olivia Coleman and Alexander Skarsgard. The plot is a little odd but stay with us. Olivia Coleman plays the role of a Fisherwoman. Tired of being ridiculed by fellow villagers for her lack of a husband, her dress sense and her appearance, she asks a Basket Weaver to make her a husband. Enter Alexsander Skarsgard who is a man made entirely of wicker. Beautiful to behold, he is the desire of every woman in the village but he only has eyes for the Fisherwoman. Their relationship is passionate, life-affirming, and bed-breaking. We repeat… do not watch with family.
Or if you have absolutely no interest in watching tv or films of any description this weekend, Winterval awaits all who seek her.
Listen back to Grace on The Big Breakfast Blaa and don’t forget you can catch her every Friday after the 9am news.
