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.

Gangs of London started like a steam train and episode 2 weren’t bad.
Quite violent and a bit far fetched but not a bad watch. Will be taking in episode 3 and 4 this evening

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

Have watched the first coupla episodes and no it's not as strong: set in Sydney so the scenery is far less impressive for a start.


Ok thanks Ned, I'll watch it anyway mostly because I think Elisabeth Moss is an excellent actor, but it's a shame they've moved away from the scenery as you say.

Strange and surprising one - but The Good Fight is excellent.

It's a sequel to The Good Wife which was decent but ruined by a soppy love story. No love story in the sequel just funny court stories, decent drama, great humour and in Season 2 absolutely outrageous destruction of Donald Trump. I find it hilariously funny and it's well worth a watch.

I've been enjoying the re-runs of 1980 TV series Fox on London Live (Mon/Sat 9pm). It's about a Clapham-based family headed by retired Covent Garden porter Billy Fox (Peter Vaughan) and his five sons (including Ray Winstone, Larry Lamb and Bernard Hill). It went a bit 'under the radar' at the time but still works for me 40 years on. A sort of south London version of The Godfather.

Both are quality.

If the Expanse folows the books as it has done, you are in for a treat when it comes back.

Preacher on Amazon. Really enjoyed 1st series, second not so much but enough to start 3rd.

Fear the walking dead last 2 seasons were great. Now better than TWD.

Last Kingdom series 4 on Netflix. Still decent.

Just started Fauda S3 and good so far.

Kingdom Netflix, amazing 1st season, 2nd good. Korean with subtitles.

Been watching Normal People on iplayer. It's maybe a little intense for these times, but I've enjoyed it. Some quality acting especially from Paul Mescal.


+1 for Normal People on BBC iPlayer....

Some really great acting and Daisy Edgar-Jones is stunning even though I'm old enough to be her father!

All 4 series are on Netflix so you will have it. They bought the rights to the first two seasons from the beeb, which I think are still available on iPlayer.

Also on Netflix I watched Into the night which was pretty good. Belgian but also dubbed in English.

Anyone else struggle with this? Almost very, very good, but far too complicated for my brain. Think it’s still playing , so no spoilers, other than it’s hard work.

i would get onto support because it should show 4 seasons, have you checked if its the same on the TV and via the web site.

i know its going to sound corny but have you tried logging out and back in again, its worked for me before with Netflix problems in the past

I’ve still got four episodes to go, but I’ve been really impressed with Normal People. Superb performances from the leads, and nicely shot and paced. It’s also made me insanely nostalgic for my late teens/early twenties.

Just watched the final episode of Homeland and it was a very clever way to end the series. What a barnstorming 8 seasons it's been, one of the best dramas of all time. Saul Barenson, possibly one of the best characters ever written for TV. I will certainly miss that show.

Good call on Saul & agree with your ending review.
Few wobbles in middle of its run but latest seasons have been pretty good.
Carrie’s gurning did get on my wick at times but Saul is great actor.

I have really enjoyed Homeland from start to finish although the latter series never quite reached the heights of the first two.

Brilliant ending, I never saw that coming.

It did kind of lose a little bit of it's thrust when they wrote Quinn out of it as he was also a huge and complex character who would never cease to amaze, but as all great series do it evolves over seasons.

Enjoying The Last Dance on Netflix. Certainly a bit of hagiography on Michael Jordan but blimey the bloke was good at basketball and single minded in his desire to be the best.

I’m delighted to have found there are another two seasons of Baron Noir on Prime. The first season was excellent. It’s about a French machine politician who’s both highly moral and deeply unscrupulous. The Parti Socialiste must dream of those days.
