Hello,
With the miracle of a vpn I now have access to the BBC. Have been abroad now for 10 years and would appreciate any recommendations as I’m out of touch.
Wife likes a good mystery, myself, the more irreverent or thought provoking the better. Mortimer and Whitehorse fishing is simply wonderful.
The BBC With the phrase, inform, educate and entertain, a good recipe for life.
Queens gambit on Netflix, very very good.
Ps There’s a couple of guys who wear there che/$*e In my neighborhood especially on weekends. Funny thing Is they just can’t handle me giving them a bit of stick. Cultural differences 😃
Thanks |  | | |  |

Hello Hoopsmark.
The best VPN is Express VPN.
It's just so reliable.
I had Tunnel Bear last year - no way near as good as Express VPN.
Good luck. | | | |

I’m on the east coast of the states.
Tried express vpn and cyber ghost. Both didn’t work with I player and both gave me a refund. Both said there technicians were fixing being blocked.
At the moment pure vpn is working for me. | | | |

Daman - I was going to recommend Mortimer and Whitehouse.
Just to let you know, if you don't already, that there have been 3 series so far - all wonderful! | | | |

Once upon a time in Iraq is excellent
The Murdoch dynasty is also pretty good, as is OJ: Made in America
All three of those are laugh a minute. |  | | |

Funny thing Robith there was a 1960,s Bedford van outside my house last week. Two men dressed like mannequin dummies from C&A with black rimmed nhs glasses.
On answering the door I told the two gents the previous person had moved abroad.
Hoping I fooled them.

What we do in the shadows. Even if you haven't seen the film the TV series stands on it's own.
One I watched last week which got me quite emotional was A Special School. Its a really touching 3 x 30 minutes progs about a school for special needs kids, as a parent of two autistic boys it really brings home how fantastic those who are involved in special schools really are. |  |

Giri Haji is really good if you haven't seen that, Charm. Am hoping they do a second season soonish.
Also really enjoyed Car Share in a slightly embarrassing rom-com way. |  | | |

I've never got a question right on this, or even understood what the question is. I watch in a state of bemused stupefaction, twisted what? Eye of who? I have no idea what it is about or where they find people who do. I still quite enjoy it rhough | | | |

I’d give you the same advice I get with cryptic crosswords - which I have to admit has never worked for me - which is to keep trying and you’ll get to understand how the question setters think. I’m quite good on missing vowels, but I don’t think I’ve ever got a music question in ten years.
If nothing else, you can mock the weirdos that go on it, unlike the ones who stay at home and shout at their Telly. I love the fact that they now invite people to apply even if they haven’t got two friends to join them. I imagine applications have risen 10,000%. [Post edited 26 Nov 2020 15:48]

Come on then MrSheen, and everybody. What's the answer to this lovely cryptic crossword clusey:
H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O.
5 letters.
Eh? Eh?
No Googling. |  |
| Did I ever mention that I was in Minder? |
