"Hi Mart. Pride & Prej is on there (BBC version, Colin Firgh as Mr Darcy - I can't get past the fact his voice is identical to Arthur Lowe's, but each girl to their own) Emma. More Jane Austen. Johnny Lee Miller is marvellous as Mr Knightley. North and South. Elizabeth Gaskell. Daniella Westbrook hopelessly miscast, but with watching if only for the brilliant Sinéad Cusack as the mother in law from hell. Daniel Deronda. George Eliot. Parade's End Poldark Alias Grace (Margaret Atwood period drama) Dickensian (very clever idea) Miss Fisher Murder Mysteries. Set in the 1920s in Australia. Nice bit of fun. Very beautiful costumes. Do NOT, under any circumstances, recommend 'War and Peace'. It was utter garbage. Really boring story and unengaging characters. I've never read the book. Maybe it's just a shit book. Not all the 'classics' live up to their rep."

"I watched Sticks and Stones, some itv 3 parter thing. Nothing special, but it’s about a bloke been bullied in his office. Watching the cunts he works with break him down was infuriating, had to bin off the last 20 minutes and let my missus tell me how it ended."

The Crown is comedy gold Phil: I thought you were hoping for more children from me Liz: I am. Phil: Then why on earth would you do something like that to your hair? Liz: What's wrong with it? I thought it was tidy and sensible. Phil: Adjectives to stir the loins.

"I'm getting Netflix for my mum and dad for Xmas so I can sit them in front of the telly and let them binge and, more to the point, keep them out of my hair. They loved The Crown, Downton, all that sort of shite. Any recommendations for box sets on Netflix of a period/historical nature would be much appreciated. And might help keep a fellow Whoer sane over the festive season. Thanks in advance, you cunts, etc, etc."

"Anyone else seen Netflix's Living With Yourself, with Paul Rudd? Not that great, but a watchable yarn/comedy, and only 8x25 mins."

"West Ham ""the next level. "" amazing piece of fiction written by Gold and Sullivan and bitch known as Tits McGee. Amazing fairy tail where we move in to this awesome stadium where the seats are near to the pitch and we make loads of money and we challenge for the Champions league spots."

Can't emphasise watchmen enough currently! last 3/4 episodes have been some of the best TV for years. Season 1 finale next week so i'd recommend catching up before any spoilers are around on social media
