"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?"

The Boat on BBC1 is insane! Highly recommend the Tarantinoesque drama Some brutal scenes in it

"Percy Dalton 7:42 Sun Nov 5 In Season 3 episode 2 of Justified - Raylan's boss, Art Mullen and Bill Nicolls ( another former Marshall and friend who was subsequently murdered ) were wallowing in nostalgia and pondering how they would have stacked up against the oldbreed. The name of Bass Reeves came up and Art said something like - "" Wait till Denzel finds out about him "" - can't remember exactly, but perhaps that sowed the seed for ""Lawmen"""

"I’m five episodes out of eight into Bodies and have decided to give up. What a steaming pile of shit. Terrible writing, crap acting, full of cliched bollocks. I can’t believe I’ve wasted 5 hours of my life with this shit."

"On Netflix I binged watched The Ripper, the 2020 docuseries about The Yorkshire Ripper. Seen a lot of the info etc before but it's well worth a watch if nothing else to see what a pigs ear the police made of it."

"Probably opening myself up to accusations of 'jacking this thread, but didn't feel the subject was worthy of it's own. For yous of a certain age, going to the cinema of the 50's & 60s and you had a short pre-main feature film called ""Look at Life""; about 20 minutes long, a small documentary about, well, life in the UK. I've just found them on YouTube/The Pirate Bay and they are a fascinating look at the ""Good old days"". If you want your nostalgia with a strong hint of stiff upper lip, take a look at a few."

"'We own this City' By the same writers who did the Wire. Based on real events, if its only 50% accurate then the Baltimore cops were out of control. Only 6 episodes but a very good watch."

Lawrence Bass Reeves watched the first episode and its excellent. Written by the same bloke who wrote Yellowstone.

Side of Ham 3:11 Tue Oct 31 Agree sometimes its difficult seeing actors key to other series that you recognise and takes time to adjust. Actors in Spiral and Braquo feature in the Dark Hearts so its a testament to the skills of the programme to dispel your disbelief!
