Reply With QuoteFinally got to watch The last of us on Now. Very very good and hopefully a second series might come out in the near future.
Watched the 3 episodes of MAXINE last night on Netflix.
It's the story about the tragic and horrible Soham Murders of two young girls in 2002
I would never want to say that it was entertaining, but it did highlight the dreadful mistakes that were made by all the partnership agencies.

I’m at the same point as you, can’t decide.
After the 10th trip to the office this year, I’m also very tired & not used to driving 20mins to the station & a 25mins train journey before 3mins to the office. First time driving in the dark too, bugger me I didn’t like that.

The new series of Frasier is shaping up to be a good one.
Opening scene of the first episode left me quite worried - really cheap gags, really annoying new characters, very very annoying (and very American) laugh-track. It recovered well though, Nicholas Lyndhurst makes a nice addition to the cast and its nice too see that Frasier hasn't lost any of his grandiose pomposity in the ultra woke 2020's.
It's never going to be a patch on the original Frasier but it's still great fun.
We destroyed that in about a week and regretted it, i hadnt realised just how short the series were. Seriously dark but seriously funny. I think most of us have a bit of Ray Shoesmith bottled up
We found the whole first episode quite worrying tbh but will out of love for the previous shows stick with it at least a couple more episodes.
Netflix- Life on our planet. Quite fantastic
Thought provoking - especially the last episode.
Snippet of a line from Morgan Freeman…. It’s our intelligence that can save us.
Quite scary when you consider it that way.

New season of Breeders on Sky, brilliant!
Really enjoying the BBC series of Boiling Point.
It picks up from a few months after where the film of the same name left off.
It has been written and filmed in the same 'fly on the wall' style as the film, but now runs as 1hr long episodes (8 of them I think in total).
Again, like the film, it is a stressful but very engaging watch, so not particularly light hearted or relaxing but very addictive.
Thanks, saw the film but wasn’t sure on the spin-off.
Harris documentary is not as good, and again another childhood hero who was so wrong. FFS

House of Usher, on netflix is decent so far, I am only episode 3. Very dark, looking forward to seeing how it all ends.
Banged Up Channel Four, a real insight into our failing penal system. Be warned its brutally honest with few edits, maybe don't be eating your dinner while viewing!
Polished off Bodies a couple of days ago. I *think* I really enjoyed it but fear the lack of clarity around one character means they have always planned for a series 2, which is frustrating as everything else was rounded of well. Sometimes a one off is all that's needed.
I love Stephen Graham usually but not wild about him in this, mainly because there was the odd fleck of Scouse in his London accent, which undermined the character a little.
Series two of Bosch Legacy is now on Amazon Prime - very enjoyable
Series two of Time is available on iPlayer - unlike the first series, it's set in a women's prison (but nothing like Prisoner Cell Block H!)
Dark Hearts on iPlayer is excellent - it's a six part series about French special forces in Iraq trying to locate the family of a high ranking ISIS official in order to get information

Started All the light we cannot see on Netflix - very good.
I read the book following a recommendation on here and thought it was very good too.
As mentioned above Dark Hearts and S2 of Time worth watching.

After seeing devastating results of ethnic war in former Yugoslavia soldiers from UNPROFOR peace units find it impossible to return back to their civil lives in the UK.
BBC Iplayer
I made a mistake starting to watch this tonight I was there at the time,I will have nightmares.
As ever, I'm late to the party, but I discovered The OA at the weekend and I'm really enjoying it, although I haven't got a clue what it's about even though I'm four episodes into the first season.
We finished watching House of Usher over the weekend, very dark but still worth a watch.
Just finished The Blue Eyed Samurai on Netflix.
Adult animation along the lines of Kill Bill. Recommended
the only 3 that I am currently watching are :
Season 1 Lord of the rings
Season 3 Hammonds Workshop
Season 1 Wednesday
I did also watch the woman in the wall and I thought that was very good
Well worth watching...really good ...would expect a season 2
What are you watching Hammond on? Can only seem to find I need a subscription to something I don’t have on prime, but have discovery on sky, so a little confused!
Get Gotti on Netflix was excellent and I'm also enjoying The Met on BBC1.
Gen V's really shaped up for anyone missing The Boys.

Just finished Robbie Williams, and all I can say is, f*ck fame!
I got about 15 mins in and found it too American sensationalism and turned it off, didn’t get on with how it was delivered.
Am loving The Boys still on my
Gym cardio sessions, it’s so good.
Not letting myself watch it at home as an incentive to go do cardio.
Series 2 of Jack Reacher is just about to launch, so I think it's time to re-activate the Amazon prime account !
Looks great based on the trailer ...
Troppo on Amazon Prime is a really good watch. Set in Queensland so look out for the crocs (the reptiles, that is)
Thanks for the heads up, just watched that trailer and it looks excellent.
15th December for episode 1 !
Good idea.
I really enjoyed the 4 Wes Anderson short films on netflix.
Anyone watched Silo on apple TV yet?
The trilogy of books are some of my all time favourites so I'm a bit nervous about the adaptation.
Oh cool! Liked the first series so pleased that there is another.
I know it’s now quite old but watched Berlin Station recently - mainly watched it for Mina Tander as developed a bit of a thing for her. Unfortunately she was dressed quite frumpily in the last season. Probably because she was so much hotter than the US ladies who were supposed to be the stars.
Yep, finished season 1 - dunno if that's the end or just the end of the first book as I haven't read them. It's well made with a biggish budget I suspect so pretty good overall - good cast with some seasoned actors: Tim Robbins, Harriet Walter and, of course, Rebecca Ferguson who is always easy on the eye. Not the best sci-fi series ever or particularly memorable, but I enjoyed it, with the slow reveal leading up to the denouement.
I saw this last week and yes, it was truly creepy but compelling to watch. I tried watching Louis Theroux Interviews Jimmy Savile afterwards but found it too strange to watch considering what we now know about him!

Its on discoveryplus.com
The Newsreader has quietly reappeared for series 2 on BBC2, low key Australian 20th century history viwed through the lens of a Murdoch style TV news station
I have recently discovered Expedition Unknown on Prime - just fantastic and hugely watchable. Anyone else enjoyed this?
(If you like stuff like Oak Island it'll be right up your street).
So clever my foot fell off.
Series 10 of the blacklist.
Loved it until the final episode. Bull.
another thumbs up for Bosch.
if anyone hasn't seen the earlier series start with that; it is very well done
great news; had hoped they'd follow up with another
Just finished Culprits on Disney, very enjoyable.
Thanks for the recomendation. Started it last night & 3 episodes in, I like the way it's made probably binge the rest tomorrow
