"Just finished The Killing liked it a lot but not really the last season as much. Breaking Bad, Homeland done Was going to do Luther or The Wire next - can you tell me which one is best of the two?"

I did a binge watch of the Gangs of London. I completely missed it when it came out as I thought it would be normal London Gangland nonsense then I noticed it was made by Gareth Evens ( The Raid films) FUCKING HELL Episode 5 is just Violence Opera. Brilliantly bonkers stuff. Really enjoyed it.

"I'm up to ep 8 with Your Honor. As Manuel says, it's okay but certainly not a classic. Because there is so may minutes to fill for Amazon, Netflix, Sky, etc, they're dragging out the storylines far too long. Unfortunately, quantity is becoming more important than quality."

"Gomorrah is brilliant, the only drama that I think I've rewound a scene to make sure I saw what I saw, brutal. Still got L'immortale recorded so need to get that watched."

"A typical joke in Truth Seekers is: 'What happened to the last bloke you worked with'? 'He fucked off and joined ISIS'. 'Jesus, why did he do that'? 'I don't know. Why would you leave here and work for Ilford Storage and internet services '?"

"I've just finished Truth Seekers, the new series with big West Ham fan Nick Frost and Simon Pegg. Funny and a bit creepy and of course Malcolm McDowell steals every scene he's in. I really enjoyed it."

"I flew to Naples for a holiday in Amalfi. We did a day trip to Pompeii from there. I wanted to go to Naples for a bit of sightseeing as well, but we didn't get round to it. I haven't watched the series but I think I'll try to cram it in, 'The Swiss' style, in between everything else I'm doing at the moment."

"only1billy, Suberra (Blood on Rome) starts off very well and the first 2 seasons are very good, it turns to shite after that in season 3 though, well in my opinion, just gets stupid, i struggled to finish watching it."

"""Sends chills into you"" Only minutes into the first episode, the 'blistering' on the inside of the bathroom door... 🥺 The the shock of that 'cafe' scene. Oof!"

"I thought the 4th Series of Gomorah was never going to be as good as the first 3, especially as one of the main characters had been killed of and the other was trying to go straight, well thats what it looked liked at first. It was just as good and if anythingjust got better with each episode. Anyone who hasnt seen this from the start, should do themselves a favour and watch it, it maybe all in Italian with subtitles but its brilliant."

"Gomorrah is ridiculously good. Sends chills into you. jfk - Not been to Naples, but in Europe it's nearly always a shithole near the main station."

"Gomorrah is up thee with Narcos and LOD for me,some of the best tv ever made imo.Couple of episodes left and series 5 will be with us sooner rathter than later hopfully. Will give Suberra (blood on roam) a go next but i feel Gomorrah has set the bar so high,all else is bound to fall short."

"A brilliant series but Naples is fucking horrible. Rented a villa near Florence with my brother in law,wives and kids.Myself and brother in law decided to get the train to Naples for a day( two and half hours away,trains in Italy are cheap and well efficient)wish we didn’t. Naples may have some nice parts but around the main station is a fucking shithole.We had a couple of scummy cunts flash a blade twice. Wa had a couple of beers which turned out to cost 6 euros a pop grabbed a shit pizza and fucked off on a return train sharpish. Shittiest city in Europe."

"Just started All the Sins. Adding to my collection of religious loons. It's about murders in a village dominated by Laestadians. Almost everything is a sin for them, except for sex that might lead to pregnancy within marriage, and, bizarrely, smoking. They are violently anti-alcohol - literally violently anti-alcohol in their early days, 170 years ago, when they attacked breweries and shops selling alcohol. Although they do use wine in the communion I already know too much about Laestadians...."
