Title: Mr Inbetween
Post by: dogshome on October 10, 2024, 01:18:26 PM
Hi from the UK. I've been watching an Aussie series called "mr Inbetween". It's about a bouncer / hitman / normal person (!). Series 1 is good fun and the sort of things that Ray encounters are maybe what you'd expect once you know his 'trade'.

Series 2 gets altogether more interesting. I'm on episode 8 right now.

It's not a docu, but there are some crims, and you know where it's going (so far) in every episode. Very entertaining though. Sheilas are a bit stereotyped, maybe. But recommended - so far!  :thumbsup:

I loved this series. When I lived in Sydney some decades ago I had some friends in "low" places. One of them was a guy called Damus.

Now Damus was an intelligent guy and actually had an Arts/History University degree. He could hold up his end of a conversation on just about any topic. Well read, well informed a d for the most part, courtly mannered.

However he had one flaw, he liked hurting people, hence his occupation as an enforcer/debt collector/stand-over man.

Ray in the series reminded me a lot of Damus.
