Anyone making a spoiler-free case for Michael? The poster has done its part, now I need the pitch.

Tadhg, that is what I like about a shortlist. It makes me stop endlessly browsing and actually choose.

Michael is one I am weighing up. Could someone add a spoiler-free note about the opening? That is usually what helps me choose.

ciaran.byrne · 31 Oct 2026, 07:08 UTC

Saoirse, that is a good way of choosing. I tend to match the pick to the evening as well.

For anyone considering Michael: Keeping this on the list for a quieter evening rather than trying to squeeze it in.
