Thanks for the tip
A short series from C4 - based on the murder of Daniel Morgan -
Murder in the Car Park - Murder in the Car Park | Channel 4
He he first series of Bitter Daisies was excellent. Really enjoyed it. Not quite got round to watching the second season yet
Just watched four episodes of Citadel after recommendation by sister in law. Finding it really irritating - I have no idea what is going on
Quite enjoying Last King of the Cross.
Tim Roth stars.
SWMBO started us on the Citadel but we wonāt finish it.
Iāve no idea how far it was distributed, but thereās a New Zealand show called āOne Lane Bridgeā weāre enjoying at the moment - Scandi (or rather Central Otago) noir crime drama with a touch of MÄori spirituality.
Only a few so far but I like it. A modern, Ms Columbo without the orginalās charm or pace but with its own appeal. And a Plymouth Baracuda kinda, maybe sits nearer Jimās Firebird than a Peugeot, but heyā¦
Succession ended Monday - up there with the best ever made. Brilliant.

Just finished the Rings of Power, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Now deciding whether Iām up to taking on the entire Games of Thrones, which Iāve never watchedā¦ā¦ should tie me over for all of the winter.
Good plan, winter is comingā¦
As a life-long Tolkeinite I couldnāt face Rings of Power.
Game of Thrones is brilliant - as long as they had the books to rely upon. Once they got beyond the books the quality fell off a cliff. Turns out is takes a LOT of work to write people who are brilliant and insightful, something the show runners were not up to.
Weāre watching āthe Flashā. Just finished season 1.
SWMBO loves superhero stuff, itās easy watching for me whilst reading the forum
The first few seasons were good.
Just finished watching āThree Bodyā which is a Chinese language series based on the āThe Three body Problemā by Cixin Liuā¦ very high quality
Hard sci fi
Itās on you tube in 4K with English subs and is excellent especially if you liked the book it is a much watch.
The guys who made game of thrones are currently doing a more western audience friendly big budget version for Netflix which looks stunning visually but I can highly record the storytelling in this adaptionā¦
THANKS for posting this.
The Three Body Problem books have some great ideas.
I will be watching this.
The Pereiphral on prime is worthwhile, based on a William Gibson novelā¦
One of the best pieces of filmed drama Iāve ever seen.
(If thatās the one with Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey).
Yep thatās the one. Truly class
Also just watched Gold on iPlayer; and Crime by Irvine Welch - both of these are excellent.
In all three of these I believed in the characters and felt for them.
Finally watched the last series (No.6) of Better Call Saul. I thought the whole series was brilliant. A bit sad, but brilliant. All the actors and characters were superb and the whole lot beautifully shot, scripted and directed. Itās series like this which show what can be done and set the standard for me. I find it difficult to watch most second-rate things nowadays and tend to switch off after the first 15 mins when I can see itās going to be the usual rubbish.
