The story of Alfred Pennyworth, a former special-forces officer living in London and working for Bruce Wayne's father.

1st EP was quite good, same writer as Gotham, so might have some potential

Watched it last night really enjoyed it, I did think that Paloma Faith looked like Myra Hindley though.

Cheers all

Loving this. The alternative London setting reminds me of the game We Happy Few.

I thought it was brilliant with Pennyworth sounding like Michael Caine.
Paloma Faith was excellent.

If only there was an interconnected network of computers that allowed people to share such media.....one day...one day

one day when people have a decent enough bandwidth to stream media sensibly you mean? or did you just jump in to make a "clever" comment w/out stopping to think there might be a reason some people watch things on TV and not other media?

and when I suggested this group it was on condition nobody mentioned such stuff

Watched both episides today... I'm quite enjoying it itt so far...

Just watched the three episodes after reading this thread...I'm hooked!

I'm enjoying this so far. I wasn't sure what to expect and honestly was thinking it was going to be something a bit more like Gotham, an over-the-top, wacky kind of show with cartoonish violence, but it's a lot more violent and gory than that, while still retaining some humour and levity in parts.

Liking it so far

SexyGreyFox · 30 Jul 2019 at 19:47

So they're in 60s London and Paranoid by Black Sabbath performed by somebody else is on in the club

Watched the second episode last night. Love how they haven't held back on the violence, gore and language (think they dropped the c-bomb in E02 more times than a GoT episode). Although I do have a good chuckle when I think of all the colonials trying to understand large parts of the dialogue.

Can not think of any reason why you would not download it and watch, so no he did not make a stupid comment, its just you...
