• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

Sheen's latest venture that was mainly filmed in P. Talbot.

Anyone watch it?
What an absolute pile of rubbish! It's the worse TV currently out there and it seems that Sheen has really lost himself in his own importance with it.

Yet there will still be some out there who think it's amazing just because of Sheen and Port Talbot connection.
 
I thought the first one was absolutely amazing television. Fresh, different and very thought provoking.
 
I haven't seen it yet but it's had a right pasting from the critics for being cliched and hackneyed. Including from the Guardian, which is normally sympathetic.
I'll make my own mind up of course, but that doesn't bode well.
 
I really enjoyed the first episode. It was very different to most BBC1 dramas. I’ve no connection to Port Talbot either. I can understand why its divisive though especially to those who like their potboilers simple and easy to understand. This flicks through genres at a rate of knots.

I was reading a few reviews earlier and it has had a right bashing.
It seems that there are people out there who have enjoyed it but the overall feel is that it's a crock of shiit.
 
I managed about thirty minutes of episode one then stepped outside to punch a random passer-by.

It was that good.

The Guardian gave it four stars out of five?

 
Well, I said I'd make up my own mind and now I have.
Although there might have been one or two good points buried in it, the overall impression I came away with was that it was all a bit silly.
More than that, it was embarrassing, like it was written by a massive Welsh paranoiac.
 
Finally got around to watching this

I thought episode 1 was quite good, by episode 2 it had turned into some level of comedy and by episode 3 it just stank of someone who had forgotten what the plot he was writing was all about and just clearly had created a word salad that was turned into a programme

After wasting an hour on the 2nd episode I can't face watching part 3.
Absolute guff.
