• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

Simple but gripping documentary, on UK Netflix now. Excellent example of "the Ticking Clock" device.
 
Although I'm not an action/adventure fan, I am interested in anything based on fact. Of course one would be foolish not to exploit "the ticking clock" device as it makes the viewers adrenaline flow, excellent selling ploy... but nevertheless, it's not the kind of picture I could in all honesty say I would enjoy, sorry.
