the audiobook is A++

I started watching the show (first 3 episodes so this could change) but I think they're doing a good job of showing how the troubles were a constant spiralling situation that just kept escalating. the disclaimer at the end of every episode about 'gerry's never been with the IRA' every time is also mildly amusing too.

i'm at the part in the book where everyone is talking shite about Gerry fully lying about running the IRA and it gives me life. i get why he had to distance himself for plausible deniability and the whole we don't negotiate with terrorists thing, but he was talking out of both sides of his mouth and lying to the movement about his motives during the peace process. No wonder they all got pissed and disillusioned!

i watched the first episode and yeah, this is quite good.

I’ve watched two eps so far and it’s pretty good. Lot of stuff from the book.

My only quibble is Maxine Peake. I like her a lot as an actor, but I feel like for something like this they should have gotten an actor from Belfast, or at least Northern Ireland.
