 MSGID: 2:221/360.0 5edad118 PID: JamNNTPd/OS2 1.3 20200418 TID: GE/2 1.2 CHRS: UTF-8 4 TZUTC: 0300 The Night Manager is another fine adventure through a world of international settings and illegal trade. The series is based on John LeCarre's book of the same name. If you like espionage, intrigue, adventure.. and bits of adult situations thrown in, then The Night Manager is a fine wild ride. Hugh Laurie (of HOUSE fame) plays an arms dealer. His Latvian is terrible (my first language is Latvian, so I should know!) LOL. And, to portray that Latvians can be criminals at such an international level is completely imaginary - of course. ;) An agent is embedded as a hotel manager (hence, the title) to sniff out corrupt activities. Originally aired in 2016, but I only picked it up a year or so later. It is only one season of 6 episodes, but it's fast-paced, and the last episode is a fine conclusion - as it mirrors the book's storyline. Season 2 with a new/continuing storyline is in the works. --- Thunderbird 2.0.0.24 (Windows/20100228) * Origin: nntp://rbb.fidonet.fi - Lake Ylo - Finland (2:221/360.0) SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 120/340 601 123/131 154/10 203/0 221/0 1 6 360 SEEN-BY: 226/16 30 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 664 1014 240/2100 5138 SEEN-BY: 240/5832 5853 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 288/100 292/8125 SEEN-BY: 310/31 317/3 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45 423/81 120 633/280 SEEN-BY: 770/1 2452/250 2454/119 PATH: 221/360 1 280/464 240/5832 229/426 |
