TV

Blackadder II
2x02 Head [2nd watch]
I didn’t remember this episode at all. Ok, it’s been a quarter of a century or so since I last watched this series, but the first was pretty memorable. And it’s not for lack of quality, because there are plenty of hilarious bits. I suppose it’s possible I didn’t actually start the series until a few episodes in, and saw Bells (or bits of it) later. Hard to remember exactly so many decades later. It only matters for my personal watch count, anyway.
[Watch it (again) on iPlayer.]

X-Men
1x01 Night of the Sentinels Part 1 [2nd watch]
1x02 Night of the Sentinels Part 2 [2nd watch]
I loved this series as a kid, when it originally aired. I remember waiting yonks for it to come to DVD and then, when it finally did in a complete box set, I bought it... and, of course, didn't watch it. I can't remember if I bought the set immediately on release or waited for a price cut, but it's been years either way (possibly over 13 — it came out in October 2011). So, I've been meaning to (re)watch this show for a very, very long time. Why now? The continuation series coming to Disney+, of course! I've left it (way) too late to get through the original series before the new one premieres, but hey ho, I'll get there in time.
