Serious Sunday & we are talking about gossip.... Can it ever be a good thing? Would you tell a loved one if you heard something about them? Is gossip just Chinese whispers?

This weeks series reviews are: Rich - The Queen of the South on Netflix, he says its like a female gangster series & gives it a straight 5/5.

Today is serious Sunday & it is a very serious topic, one that we don't have all the answers to but definitely have an opinion on. Boris Johnson has said in the news this week that people who are transgender should not be allowed to take part in sports on the team they have transitioned to. We give our opinion on this & what we think. It's a very serious topic & we are sure there will be a number of different opinion on it so feel free to leave a comment. We have an unexpected & unwanted guest on Sophs side of the pond, but we keep it real as always LOL. As always subscribe, like, comment, follow & share.

Hello Funday Friday.... After the usual weekly update & news update we have decided to do a re-run on the random question picker. Using an online selector neither have any idea what the other will ask, in fact the person who's turn it is has no idea what question they are asking till its their turn!! This weeks series reviews are - Rich = Van Helsing on Netflix; as Rich is a big vampire fan he loves it & gave it a 5/5. But did say it is nothing like the film. Soph = The Split on BBC (all episodes available on BBC iplayer); this is the 3rd season & Soph rates it 5/5, a must see. No vampires just romance, love & 'chick flick' stuff :)

Funday Friday is back & it is JAM packed!! Kicking it off with the usual weekly update from ATP & the news update, we then change it up a little & welcome a guest. None other than our dear friend Jay Reace. He joins us to discuss the main story that's been on everyone's lips this week - the Will Smith slap at the oscars!! We take it in turns (or try to) to give our opinion on whether it was dealt with in the correct way but try not to get into it too much as this is also Sundays serious topic. The main event for today's show is trying out Jay Reace's vegan porkless pork rinds he so kindly sent us.... Safe to say Soph is defo not a fan, while Rich says its food so he will eat anything LOL. However everyone agreed Nacho cheese flavour were the better ones of a bad bunch. Series review this week - Rich chose Life & Beth on Hulu, giving it a solid 5/5 saying he is a big fan. Soph went with season 3 of After Life on Netflix. While she LOVED 1 & 2, she said 3 left her feeling disappointed & gave it a 2/5.

Furious Friday.... Yes you read that right! In light of recent events regarding racism in the Euro2020 football (soccer) Championship we have moved our "funday" subject to Sunday & bought the serious subject to today. England made it to the final of the Euro2020 facing Italy, which went past extra time & into a penalty shoot out. Unfortunately they didn't win; however the violence & racism that spiraled after was absolutely disgusting!! Soph explains the events & Rich compares how passionate fans go to far across the pond also. Massive congrats to the England team for getting to the final for the first time in 55 years. Hearts go out to Marcus Rashford, Bukayo Saka & Jadon Sancho for the abuse they received following on from this match. Tune back in on Sunday for "silly" Sunday

You may have noticed there was no Funday Friday show, this is due to Rich being in hospital. Unfortunately he will be in there for a few weeks. Having had a meeting we have decided the show must go on.... So Soph will do one show a week with a different guest each time until Rich is back. Once Rich is well enough to return we will do a serious Sunday where he can discuss what’s happened. Until then please send him your prayers & respectfully give him the time he need. He is still very much involved in the show & nothing happens without him.... This week we have Ro on the show. He is a food blogger & a fashion blogger. We discuss food in detail, fashion in depth & how he got into it....
You can find Ro on Instagram:-

Fashion = officialroysta
Thank you everyone so much for your continued support & Soph just hopes she did the show justice without her partner in crime :(

It's an action packed shoot me up, but not your usual "manly" type. It's about a female assassin who does what it takes to survive.
It has a host of stars; Colin Farrell, Jessica Chastain, John Malkovich & music legend Common to name a few.
It's an easy watch, perfect for a Saturday night with a glass of wine on the sofa. We rate it a 7.5/10...... It's good, we just wanted a little more meat on the bone & we were left a bit miffed at the end.

A brief round up of the news with the latest on the laughable lockdown rules. Followed by a deep discussion on racism & BLM & to be fair we only touch the surface as it's such a big topic.
We share our personal experiences & opinions on racism, but there will definitely be a part 2 (& probably 3) as there was so much more to say :(

After a very brief run down of the weeks events, as not much has changed at either end of the pond, we do a comparison on what things are called in the USA compared to the UK.
We actually learnt quite a lot; like Rich can walk on a zebra crossing with a bum bag & Soph can bum a loosie after getting a bang cut LOL....
No film reviews today as neither of us were able to view the requests that were sent in but join us again on Sunday where we will have some more suggestions & laughs :)

Firstly a public apology was needed for Ted Danson after the mix up on episode 5 (sorry about that, easily done lol).
We continue the chat on old & new TV shows, as we had lots of messages of ones we missed out.... (thank you all for the comments & messages, love the helping hand when our brains couldn't think of them).
After talking about The A Word & Atypical, this leads onto a serious discussion about Autism. A subject close to Soph's heart as her son is autistic, plus we learn Rich has an autistic god son.
Just know that not all superheros wear capes & not all angels have wings - some come in the form of special needs parents.... You are ALL doing an amazing job!!

As it's Friday we do a round up of our weeks, from both sides of the pond.
We compare a sweet treat which we agree to disagree on. Then we delve into TV shows past & present.
Soph learns that Tom Selleck wasn't actually ever in Cheers, it was Ted Danson, honestly you couldn't make this stuff up LOL....
As always any movie suggestions are GREATLY received, as once again Rich's leave a lot to be desired!!

Special edition - We pay our respects to everyone past, present & future that serves in the Military services. We discuss the differences between the USA & UK, Veterans Day & Remembrance Day.
Apologies if we missed any information or didn't get it quite right - this was a last minute decision to do this as we wanted to say thank you to everyone for their service.
Special mention to Mission 22 in the US that help soldiers once they leave the Military (They will be tagged in our Instagram post if you want to check them out)
An extra special thank you to our very own Rich for his service

Our reviews on film & TV are in & we narrow down our next recommendations, which Rich doesn't make easy!!
Then the main event on the show today is:- food.... We are both foodies so we discuss our favourite dishes from our side of the pond & debate what certain things are called - such as the difference between a burger & a sandwich LOL. Plus I give a lesson on Spaghetti Bolognaise. Trust me you won't want to miss it!!
