Band of Brothers

Checked my work rota first thing today. Since it's half term week I asked to work a few extra days in the week. Today and Saturday being my only free days I wanted to do something special today so I finished off Band of Brothers by blitzing the final 3 episodes. And it was phenomenally good. If every TV series like this I would watch a hell of a lot more television. Everything was exceptional, character, cinematography, sound, music, it was all incredible. As I sat there watching the ending I felt like I had spent some real time with those men and had fought along side them. The final 5 minutes are beautifully poignant as it ends with the real survivors of Easy Company, a uncontrollable wave of emotion overcame me and I shed some tears as the credit music begun; it was a perfect moment.






4 Seconds later Louis came in and did this on the floor:


And the moment was ruined.
