You couldn't make it up

Postby greenwoo » Fri Mar 27, 2020 3:06 pm

Not sure if anyone else happened to notice this on their TV guide/planner last night...

ITV2 a film
'Contagion' - an epidemic with no know cure sweeps the world

FFS, either someone is having a laugh or a scheduler needs a kick in the nuts

That got popular a few weeks ago when people realised the story was very similar to Corona virus (US women eats food in Asia prepared by local who just got bitten by a bat, or something like that. Flies home, gives severyone the virus, we all die horribly).

Well, obviously, without the dying horribly bit at the end... Gwyneth Paltrow stars and actually used her experience on the film to suggest on Twitter that she knew all about the current virus :o

Mark. Mrs W noticed this and said something very similar to you. I don’t think the scheduler got kicked. More like dismembered and put in an oil drum. Each to their own. :D

Settled down with Mrs B yesterday evening to watch "Inferno" the adaptation of the Dan Brown novel. Completely forgot it's about a madman trying to release a virus to wipe out half the worlds population :o

Still watched it
