"Going back a few years, the first two series of ""Between the Lines"" were excellent. More recently discovered ""Flack"" on W. Comedy drama worth a view."

I have gone back to the beginning of Mad Men to get me back into the mode of office life again. Have already picked out a spot for my office drinks cabinet.

LOD gets a bit ridiculous as the series go on. But still worth it for Adrian Dunbarr

"Sarge - I've never watched Line of duty. I only watched Breaking Bad last year. Killing Eve, The Fall, Broadchurch, Happy Valley, The Night Manager all good UK shit in recent years."

West side Agreed re fortitude Massively lost interest after series 1 Having not seen any of them before we are watching Line of Duty . I’m sure it’s been touted here over and over but just in case we are not the last people on earth to find it...........it’s bloody brilliant.

"I know I’m in the minority here. But I think sopranos is massively overrated. I just finished season 3. And fuck all happens for the most part, just watching tony eat all the fucking time 😂"

The only problem with Ozark is that it's filmed with a dark filter - apparently to replicate its dark tone - and it's a cսnt to watch in the day.

"Peckham. Dtick with Ozark mate,it gets better as the plot thickens. Every character has dark side to them and there are many more of them to come if you have only just started."

"The majority of things people recommend to watch bore me to fucking tears after a few episodes. Pretty much the only one I’ve seen through is the Sopranos, which I though was bloody superb. Otherwise, TV gets boring very quickly as they’re all trying the same old shit."

"I will keep on saying Better Call Saul goes from strength to strength, the last two episodes on par with the best of breaking bad. Can anyone let me know if OZARK is worth persevering with? Mates rate it, but find the first episode proper slow. Wild Wild Country - Excellent documentary on netflix"

I recommended zerozerozero. Outstanding. Just finished Tin Star Season 2. Pretty good. So will try Sinners. Ozark is very good. Stick with it.

I watched The Sinner 3. Not great. Unlike the first 2 there wasn't any twists towards the end when it kind of all made sense and everything fell into place. Also some ridiculous holes in it. Still a decent watch though.
