Read the first, will look for the second - a prolific author. Quite partial to alternate history fiction.

I read the book (and a lot of other Philip K Dick books) many years ago, so I had high hopes for it. Then I showed Herself the trailer and she refused to watch the series "because it has Nazis in".
If the series follows the book (rather better than "Blade Runner" followed "Do android dream of electric sheep?") then I'll work on her, like I had to with "Breaking Bad" - "He's a drug dealer! he sells death! I'm not watching that!" - which she enjoys provided I don't watch it after 9pm as it gets her too wound up to sleep if I do...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

That is so funny: had to do the same thing. Eventually persuaded her to watch the first episode and, although it really bothered her, she wants to watch the rest.
BTW, also discovered doctor foster. Seems pretty good.

I've been told that cigarette lighters in vehicles were discontinued because nobody uses them anymore...
...so why do vehicles still have turn-signals?

I'm pretty sure BMW's don't, I've never seen one in action on one of those anyway.

I did a few weeks ago.
Admittedly it was flashing for ages and didn't turn that we at all, but it proves they work.
Bloke probably took it to a garage to complain about an irritating ticking noise whilst he was driving along.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.
