Anything I value now, I download at best possible resolution then keep on a mammoth 16Tb drive, streamed through Plex. And I'm glad because, over the years, so much great TV especially has been lost forever (not even available on DVD). Because hard drives aren't infallible, I also back it all up to iDrive.

I think that's maybe where you're misunderstanding it. This person would not be a "dude in a dress". They would be a woman in a dress but with a male body. So next time you see an identifiably obvious trans person, think of them as the gender they are, trapped in the opposite-sex body (like it's a medical problem with their body), and be glad that's not one of your battles in life, and empathetic to those who are trying to live the life they should be able to.

I'm not surprised BCLM declined - simply because they have a large complement of pubs already now.

The council should have listed the Crooked House. Very remiss IMO.

I'm currently paying Prime and Hayu because of the shows I enjoy. Even though I have a Plex box and can easily acquire the content and watch it there, I'm totally happy to pay reasonable streaming costs of a couple of services.

But Netflix is just taking the piss at this point. Unlike Prime, I can't watch Netflix both at home and away without paying even more, and the UK selection of shows is quite frankly abysmal. I signed up for one month as staying with family, but found nothing anyone wanted to watch, so cancelled.

We're watching something on Prime almost every evening.
