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.

Has anybody watched Coma on channel 5? Not groundbreaking by any stretch but I enjoyed it.


Yeah, I watched it and thought it was one of the best of Channel 5’s offerings in their 9 o’clock drama slot with Jason Watkins doing a very good turn as the harassed everyman in an impossible situation and Jonas Armstrong suitably threatening as the heavy.
The fact that it was all filmed in Hungary while purporting to be Northern England did give it a slightly surreal feeling though!

Have been watching Turning Point - The Bomb and the Cold War documentary series on Netflix. Two to go but it is very good.

Thought the Swedish series Top Dog on Channel 4’s Walter Presents was very good.

Really enjoyed Parasyte: The Grey on Netflix.
Korea just has the imagination and ability to make numerous high quality and credible series like this: you just cannot imagine us doing it.

Cheers, I was going to watch that next after "Better Call Saul".

I'm late to the party with that one it's taken me 3 series to figure out 'Chuck' is the lead singer of Spinal Tap.

I was in Ireland last week and saw a programme called Contractors on TG4. It’s a standard format, it follows a group of agricultural contractors around Ireland over the whole year, but the scenery is lovely, the people are all charming and I love farm machinery. It’s also really funny to see someone who spends most of the day bouncing up and down on a seat in the cab of a tractor when they’re not hammering on metal in a shed, and who ends their day coated in soil, fertiliser or slurry telling us “I love being out in the fresh air”. Stream it on TG4 Player.

Just finished better Call Saul last week and has made me binge watch breaking bad again now. I think I might prefer Better Call Saul as a series now which is saying something as I thought Breaking Bad was the greatest tv show ever

I was thinking the same, I love both but I think Saul shades it.

Thought this was great

Jason Watkins really is fantastic and a much underrated actor for me.
His performances as the Landlord in that fact based drama about the girls murder in Bristol (body in the snow) was absolutely brilliant.

Watching a mini series call Kaleidoscope on Netflix at the moment - quite good but a bit odd how the different coloured episodes jump around in time.

Best thing I've watched in ages is however The Kominskey Method on Netflix with Michael Douglas.... big shout to WestBerksR for recommendation. I don't normally go a bundle on yank comedy dramas but this was top notch.

We've just started watching Saul, three episodes in. Enjoying it so far although Mrs Chef finds some of the themes unsettling - think she's getting more sensitive in her old age

Watching the 1st two episodes tonight. So far, very faithful to the games.

I didn’t know about A boy and his dog so I googled it and it was the inspiration for the game.

Could tell after the first episode of The Kominsky Method that it was going to be good. Three episodes in and if it wasn't 3pm on a Saturday I'd still be watching it. Good shout to the both of you.

Finally started watching Vikings on Amazon and it’s watchable sub Game of Thrones type entertainment.
The Vikings seem to have mastered the art of regeneration well though: whole villages and armies wiped out time and again but never seems to be a shortage of people on the next episode.

Masters of the air on Apple TV. Excellent viewing for a myriad of reasons.

Trueish story of a Flying Fortress squadron in WW2 who suffered unmeasurable losses.

Unlocked, a jail experiment. Documentary series on Netflix is worth a watch.

Just finished the last episode of series one and concur with what others have said about Fallout, it's a suberb, very, very clever sci-fi/fantasy drama series. It's also a brilliant satire, deeply, darkly comic, and what incredible imagination to create the world of the story, a kind of dystopian alternate 50s-style futurama, so plaudits must go to the game designers and writers as well.

Walton Goggins, who is brilliant in Justified, is fantastic as The Ghoul, the story is great, the sets and landscapes are amazing. Top notch!

I also thought it was better than Breaking Bad.

But The Wire is better than any of them IMHO.

Walton Goggins is fast becoming one of my favourite actors. Thought he stole the show in Justified and upped his game even more with a few cameo appearances in Sons of Anarchy (google Walton Goggins Sons of Anarchy/images, you'll see what I mean).

The second he appeared in the Fallout trailer I thought, this is going to be good.
