A Walton's Family Reunion - watch online

Is there any website where I watch the 2010 documentary A Walton's Family Reunion for free? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.131.21.36 (talk) 18:27, 1 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi. Well... I don't know any free sites that you can watch the documentary you want. However, I know some kinda "pirate" sites where you can download it for free. But you have to use a VPN service, where it's free if you use the Opera browser. If you are interested, you can leave me a message on my Talk Page. Fisforfenia (talk) 12:44, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

I don't think it's a good idea to be encouraging the skirting of copyright rules. --←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 20:37, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

I found the documentary in 2 parts on the All about the Waltons website (http://www.allaboutthewaltons.com/specials.php). But I can't play them because I need an Adobe Flash player and it's blocked. 86.131.21.36 (talk) 21:49, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

Snooker numbers

On the current BBC coverage of the World Snooker Championship final, the screen often shows the scores, like this. What do the numbers 2 and 4 next to Ronnie O'Sullivan's and Judd Trump's names signify? I assumed it was their current world rankings, but that can't be the case because O'Sullivan is currently first, not second, in the world rankings, see Snooker world rankings 2021/2022. Many thanks, --Viennese Waltz 19:54, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

It's their seed for this tournament. Seedings don't always match world rankings. In this case it's because Mark Selby was seeded first as being the reigning champion. O'Sullivan, being the world number one, is therefore seeded 2nd. See also 2022_World_Snooker_Championship#Format. Nanonic (talk) 03:28, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

Makes sense, thanks for that. --Viennese Waltz 06:37, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
