"Watched the first 2 series of HV to give my memory a nudge and found them just as good 2nd time around. Will get stuck into series 3 at weekend. Started Barbarians on Netflix the other day, more than decent."

Well into SE2 of Slow Horses. The English was pretty average. You can only lust over Emily Blunt so much. Or maybe not.

"Yes, couldn't get on with The English so bailed out. The cellar scene in HV1 between Catherine and Tommy Lee was one of the best scenes I've ever seen on British TV."

"Watched the first 2 episodes of ""Yellowstone"" season 5 last night and they didn't disappoint ! For those without Paramount plus it's on KODI.... The Promise. After being advised on here to get a VPN the picture quality was superb."

"Late to the party on this one, but enjoying Babylon Berlin. Into series two of four, sort of noir/detective/plotting in pre-Nazi Weimar Germany with a lot of sex in decadent nightclubs and street violence between the far right and communists. Bit of Bryan Ferry too, doing the nightclub crooning, unexpectedly."

"Yep, the last episode was good. I need something to get my teeth into and since there isn't much I fancy I think I will try Ozark again, couldn't get into it last time and ditched it after around 5 episodes but may try again."

"Started watching Echo 3, only one Episode in but seems decent. Luke Evens in the lead. Seems similar in story to Proof of Life"
