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. |  | | |  |

Just watched Episode 1, and it was damn good.
Thanks, Ghost. |
Im two thirds of the way through, one of the best series I've seen in ages. Strong performances throughout, in particular the actors playing the Price sisters and Gerry Adams. They've done an excellent job of taking the complicated narrative structure of the book and serializing it into discrete episodes. [Post edited 1 Dec 7:45]

Yeah, just finished it. Really enjoyed it, I liked it's low-budget near-monochrome that reflected the bleakness of the Donegal landscape and the people eking out their existence there. I also liked the fact it was in Irish, after a while I was able to tune into the cadences of their speech, if not the meaning. |
A while back, my wife watched a long running Israeli series, and decided she'd picked up Hebrew.
I turned the subtitles off, turned out she hadn't.
Which was my fault, apparently. | | | |

Will give a try but it would really have to go some to be at the same level as Le Bureau des Légendes the French series it’s based on. | | | |

Three more episodes last night.
I don't want to like it (them). But I do. |  |

Just watched the first episode of Senna on Netflix. Only 6 episode series, but each is over an hour long. Starts from his early karting days in England in the early 80s.
Any fans of F1, I think, will love it. | | | |

The new Star Wars Skeleton Crew is a superb kids show and great way to introduce young ones to Star Wars.
Been catching up on Grace on ITVX- that's pretty good. |  |

SPOILER ALERT on 'Say Nothing'
Finished it.
In the end if it doesn't glorify the IRA, it comes very, very close I'm afraid. It's very well made, but uncomfortable viewing, for that reason as well as for the violence. | |

Cheers for that - loved the Senna film by Asif Kapadia (who also did the Maradona and Amy Winehouse films - all recommended) |  |

The acting is incredible - all the main characters - OMG Olly, brilliant script but such a hard watch not what I would call entertainment but it will stay with me for a while. | | | |

Mind you, I enjoyed the book so much, and the mental pictures it created, that I'm not sure I should try and watch a televised version! | | | |

I’m 4 episodes in and it’s not really done it for me.
Maybe because of the NZ accents as everyone sounds like they’ve had their tongue pierced |  |

Just finished The Sticky (Amazon). About a great, um, …. Maple Syrup heist 😂
Bit of a Canadian Fargo, I suppose. It has the excellent Margo Martindale, who I only really knew from The Americans and Justifed, but she’s great in both, and also Nigel Tufnell’s less famous wife.
Pretty, pretty, pretty good. |  | | |

Enjoyed the film of the same name so expected a bit more meat on the bone with the story being split over six episodes. In the end six wasn't enough as they were constantly skipping past years and that's a shame as there was so much more that could have been included.
For example, there was next to nothing shown of his dedication to improving the car and how he physically drove it differently to everyone else. All that being said, it was very good and he's still the Messi of F1 for me. Such a shame that he had to die before substantial changes were made to driver safety.
*Edit* Putting on my little pedantic hat. The credits average out to around 12 minutes long and if you cut them out, episode four is only 40 minutes and episode six is 46 minutes. The rest fall short of the hour so, yeah, I know, I'll take the hat off now. 12 minutes of credits though, wtf! [Post edited 10 Dec 23:02]

I watch almost nil television but at the behest of my wife Colinette, have just watched the last episode of Wolf Hall and found it spellbinding.
I shall watch the rest on catch-up or whatever it's called. |  | | |
