I watched the last episode of line of duty and thought that was good. Undercover has finally grabbed by attention. I quite like some of the investigative programmes Stacey Dooley does. However I can't wait for the next series of people just do nothing.

Mrs Sheen has been watching Steal on Amazon Prime. Sophie Turner is a frustrated back office worker in a fund management company, who gets caught up in a robbery of some dirty client money. It’s well made but my professional opinion…utter bollox!!


I'm three episodes in - really like it.

Maybe it's becuase I love seeing parts of London on dramas etc and especially bit's of London and buildings I've worked in.
The skyline isn't for everyone but by Christ I could look at The Gherkin, The Scalpel, The Cheesegrater etc all day long especailly when set against the backdrop of Tower Bridge, Shad Thames etc.

Sophie Turner not too shabby either.

Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal

A new series of Tehran is out, and it's motoring along at pace.


Based on your recommendation, I checked out the trailer and looks great so added to my watch list.

Half way through S1 of Silo so once I have finished S1 & S2 I will check Tehran out as it looks superb

What settings do you have to avoid Hebrew subs etc - Its almost unwatchable with those constant subtitles

Finished Néro The Assassin on Netflix. Part Game of Thrones, part Da Vinci Code, part Spaghetti Western, 100% cheesy nonsense. Didn’t believe a word of it but really enjoyed it.

I really enjoyed Nero - but I found the the whole AI messing with the actor's mouths in order to match what they were saying in dubbed English extremely off putting. What's worse is, once I selected the original French audio with subs the AI was still messing with their mouths.

Every episode they kept reverting to the dubbed version, it was awkward to get it back. It was funny that the Prince’s voice was much deeper in English while he was still a boy in the original. Didn’t spot the AI, I find streaming channels are often a bit off in the voice sync so I avoid focusing on the faces as it annoys me.

Just finished watching The Better Sister (Amazon Prime I think) - not so bad, not brilliant but a decent watch.

This evening I started Dope Thief on "Apple".
Now this I like. Two episodes in and it's got me.
Two robbers of trap houses end up treading on the wrong toes and there's alreadya trail of carnage being stacked up. In the midst of it there's some really good storylines and also quite a bit of dark humourous moments..... violence aside of course.
I notice Ridley Scott one of the Senior Directors and a face you'll know from Narcos and many other things being Wagner Moura.
Reckon I'll have this finished by the weekend.

I know Traitors has been mentioned on here a few times. Been watching the Irish one which includes frequent swearing. The actress that played the nun in Derry Girls hosts it.

Watched the first episode of Mackenzie Crook’s ‘Small Prophets’ and was compelled to binge-watch the rest on iPlayer. Despite one or two misgivings (the car park guy was particularly annoying) I thought it was wonderful. If you liked the whimsy of ‘Detectorists’ you’ll like this.

Saw the first episode on Monday and wasn't sure where it would go. But the same could probably be said of the first episode of the Detectorists and that turned out to be compulsive viewing. So I'm sure Small Prophets will deliver. McKenzie Crook is so talented. His characters and storylines are very rarely stereotypical. You couldn't make it up ....

Just watched the first two episodes. Wonderful and as usual Mackenzie Crook has that deft and brilliant touch in everything he does.

Does Pearce Quigley look and sound like Joe Wilkinson's older brother?

The team behind W1A and Twenty-Twelve have returned and sent Ian Fletcher to sort out the World Cup. So that's all good.

My daughter has had us watching Band of Brothers (Now/HBO Max) for the first time in about 25 years. Not only is the cinematography incredible for a TV series, but we've been staggered at how many big-name British and Irish actors were lurking in the background as short-lived bit part players. Simon Pegg was in episode 1, Tom Hardy and Michael Fassbender popped up for a few minutes but have survived, Stephen Graham has been and gone while James McAvoy and Andrew Scott barely survived 30 minutes between them as unlucky rookies. At least Damian Lewis and Dexter Fletcher got lines in more than one episode.

Katy Adler's Europe on the Edge was really well researched and informative. All about the big 4 economies in the EU and the challenges they face, economically and socially. It helps that she speaks 6 languages fluently. Bitch!!!!
