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.

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!!!!


if you like medical drama the Pitt on HBO is excellent , if you liked ER back in the day this is way better

Ian Fletcher is back.

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


I binged 2012 the other week in readiness for this.

Halfway through the series, and it's very good - the social media aspect is excellent, and it's really moved with the times. A couple of caricatures who aren't as solid as 2012 or W1A but the themes they're covering mean they mostly get away with it.

It's always noisiest at the shallow end

Having worked in TV all my life, I can confirm W1A was very realistic and unfortunately its not just the BBC who are guilty of this carry on...

W1a was like a normal day for me, such a brilliant series

The 2026 one is great as well, I have to deal with FIFA for work ahead of the world Cup and they have it bang on. The beeping out of FIFA gets me every time and the social media team is genius.

GoT spin off A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is supposed to be good. Will give that a whirl at the weekend.

Old hat for most of you I expect, but just got through Southlands on Netflix.

More mixed review from down under - some of it v good but felt like Jamie Lee Curtis was in a different show and way over cooked. Think could settle into good series though. My wife has read the books & struggled a little with the difference.
We’re nearly through Detective Hole from Jo Nesbo books - Norwegian & subtitles but think that is staying close to source material & actor playing Harry is v good.On Netflix

We watched I Swear (Netflix) last night. It had us in tears, not just the sad, early stuff when he was just a kid, but what he went through in later life and his eventual redemption.

Wonderful stuff.

The Pitt on HBO is bloody brilliant.

Burned through Series 1 in about a week.
Munching through S2 now -- not as good as S1 so far but compulsive.

I never liked ER as it was all shouty medical terms but weirdly The Pitt is that but plenty of other things as well plus the continuity of sub-plots draws you right in.

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

Pretty good on the whole, fairly linear plot with some very good acting. Only six episodes so it doesn't outstay its welcome.

Planning to move on to Mr Inbetween next, which has been recommended to me. Aussie comedy/thriller about a hitman.

Just for balance I did not rate this one.
Some poor acting from the lesser known cast and the use of flash backs destroyed all the pacing of the main story (which wasn't that strong tbf).

But, my missus liked it, so what do i know?

Typical streaming fare, looked expensive but cheap at the same time if that makes sense

Hooked on 'The Pitt'. Like nothing I've been hooked on for many years.

Top-notch telly.

Legends (Netflix).
Based in the early 90’s, a bunch of Customs Officers, led by Steve Coogan, go undercover against a heroin smuggling gang.
“Legend”, in this case, refers to the back stories that the infiltrators assume.

It’s really good.

Loving it and it's been a great watch so far.
