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.
I had to stop halfway through the third episode and go for a mini-milk in the garden*. It was proper stressing me out. Really strong telly. Stephen Graham has developed into such good actor in British stuff - he was amazing in The Virtues.
*This is not a euphemism - I went and sat outside with a plain mini-milk.
Give it a whirl, Brian; powerful TV.
Thanks for the tip - we watched the first two last night. Christ it’s tense, isn’t it? Stephen Graham and Sean Bean, of all people, are superb in it. I suppose I’d better get some mini-milks in for tonight.
Okay I am really quite cross at everyone in the world about suckering me into The Meh of Easttown. Is wrapping a VERY mediocre lazy suspense in an episode of Party of Five all it takes these days...? Never mind the absolutely gaping Damon Lindelof style misdirection plot holes FFS.
A few years late to the party but I'm just tucking into the second series of Goliath on Prime. Plots are great and Billy Bob Thornton is excellent in it.
Jeremy Clarkson decided to become more involved in the running of his farm, after the fella that used to do it retired. Very good. Entertaining, heartwarming as well as informative. Some great characters.
Any of you Irish Lads seen Sophie -A Murder In West Cork (Netflix) yet? I imagine you know the case backwards. I was over a couple of years ago during the French hearings and thought it sounded unjust, but the more you see of him…by the way, was that the court where Josephine used to hang out in Spiral?
I’m quite enjoying Clarkson’s Farm, to my surprise. Never been able to watch him for more than 10 minutes as cars bore me shyteless, and I can imagine it infuriating people that he can act the eejit and still make more out of farming than any of the locals. Still, the second episode with the sheep was highly entertaining and took me back to when my parents took it up when they went back to Ireland.

Sophie - Not for me, and I actually don't know much about the case. murder stories don't do it for me, really.
Clarkson's Farm - quite enjoyed the first couple of episodes but the false cliffhangers just got to me. It's basically 'Top Sheep' with every ten minutes a dramatic announcement that "Things. Were About. To Get. Much. Worse". But they never really do.

Black Summer low budget Zombie series on Netflix plot jumps around a bit but enough suspense to keep you watching. Also ploughing through Orphan Black which is pretty good and worth a binge.

I’m halfway through 2nd series of Black Summer, also enjoying it.
For those of you who liked the French language Spiral, Braquo, I started Binge watching the Spanish language series on Netflix. Moneyheist (Good but 2nd season felt like a stretch - 3rd season much better), Quien mato a Sara (Good), Unauthorised living (Good), Innocent (Harlen Coben adaptation so a bit formulaic but the TV equivalent of a page turner)
We watched Netflix documentary about the 1999 London nail bombings this evening.
Not great or awful but they used footage of Luton being battered at St Pancras as a video of Nazi White Supremacists... Very strange and shows a complete lack of research.
