For crime still haven't seen better than Gomorrah. Better Call Saul. Excellent. For a British thriller production based on a John Le Carre novel. The BBC done an excellent adaption of The Night Manager. The best Hugh Lawrie has ever acted. On BBC I player.

Thanks Bell. Does make you feel old though. Seeing Jonathan Frakes and Marina Sirtis looking their age was a bit of a shock!!

"Zico I love it, but I suspect its more for nostalgia than the quality of it. Defo worth a watch if you like TNG, and if you haven't seen the announcements, I'd suggest a quick Google of the series three cast. Couldn't wipe the smile off my face when I saw it. Love TNG."

Advice please gents. I'm a bit of a classic Trekkie but also had a lot of time for Star Trek TNG. Last year I started watching Picard but gave up after six episodes. Found it slow and boring. My neighbour told me yesterday that the second series is far better so watched another two of series one last night (still slow and boring!). Is series two worth it?

Started series 6 of Better Call Saul today.Kicking off where series 5 ended. Which is very well. It was always going to suffer from comparison with its predecessor. However on its day. It’s been more than a equal to Breaking Bad. All hail the king.!

"I agree Manuel. 1st season of Killing Eve was fresh, different, funny, brilliantly violent, then PWB left, they rushed out a season 2, and it's been gash since then."

First episode of Outer Range was excellent. Good actors Josh Brolin and the loveable Imogen Poots. 3 episodes into Moon Knight and it’s good fun . Sad seeing the late Gaspard Ulliel

Will be watching BCS over the weekend. Early indications are that it's good. Loads of peoplel had given 10/10 on imdb before it was even released. Why do people do that? Fucking happy clappy idiots.

"Watching Killing Eve 4 as seen the others and this mercifully is the last series. As expected it is fucking awful, it doesn't even take itself seriously anymore. Rarely known such a decline of a show after a good first series. First 2 episodes of BCS are now on Netflix. It doesn't disappoint."
