"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?"

"Watched the second series of Time, this one was in a women's nick, it's not bad but preferred the first one with Sean Bean."

Fucking hell now Braindead wants things like Slow Horses to be accurate to the real MI5.....hahahaha!.....as for his 'woke' comment the whole point of Gary Oldman's character is to take the piss out of it.

"I like Slow Horses for entertainment value, mainly due to Oldman, but it's never anything close to real life MI5 ffs, the last two episodes in the third series were frankly ridiculous. Started watching the new Netflix series 'Fool me once' with Michelle Keegan and Joanna Lumley, it's OK so far, a proper old whodunnit."

"I've listened to the Podcast and am now watching Mr Bates. It's a fucking disgrace how the Post Office treated those people, and now they're fighting tooth and nail to pay as little compo as possible. Those in charge at the time need to be prosecuted. Did no one think 'Oh, hang on. fraud is historically very rare and now we suddenly have 500 postmasters at it'?"

"Also watched Mr Bates. Good TV but those cunts at the post office and Fujitsu deserve prosecution. The BBC podcast series on it is good too, gives a lot more insight into what happened. As with the Tv series it’s a good listen but does make you angry. I’m amazed that the CBE hasn’t been taken off of that witch."

Mr Bates v the post office is a very good watch. Based on a the true story of the incompetent post office cunts.Remember bits a the time. absolutely how the cunts ruined loyal servants lives for so long is a national scandal. To this day not been recognised enough. Toby jones is good with a decent cast.

New series of Fargo is worth checking out. John Hamm and Jennifer Jason Leigh both put in a appearance.

"As below, Slow horses is as good as ever, if not better, Oldman as Lamb is sensational. Kebab shop worker ''do you want any sauce on your kebab, mate?'' Lamb ''I want enough sauce so that I can't taste the meat''"

"Read back a few pages of this thread and I am surprised nobody has mentioned Culprits (and I apologise if you have). Only watched one so far but thought the storytelling and cinematography was great. The black actor playing the lead is fucking great and as the plot is set in America and (perhaps maybe strangely) Stratford his accent(s) are impeccable. For some reason it reminds me of one of those superhero films. Maybe because the production and colouring is stupidly expensive looking but I can't wait to watch episode two after freezing my bollocks off today watching our shower of shit at the London Stadium. Get a VPN, uTorrent and type 'pirate proxy' into your browser and cancel your Apple TV, Disney plus, Amazon prime, Paramount plus and all the other subscription bollocks pickpocketing you and your children just before Christmas. The missus who has worked in TV for 25 years has just been let go AGAIN as the smaller streaming companies get bought out by bigger companies hoovering up content. I'm not a betting man but if you are you can put your dough into a smaller company (anyone not Disney plus, Amazon prime, Netflix, Apple TV, Paramount plus, iPlayer, Britbox (debatable) you'll be laughing. Who the fuck in the UK wants to pay for five subscriptions to watch Star Wars spinoffs and Friends reunions?"

"I use to binge watch but I can't do it these days, for various reasons, so now prefer the old way of one show a week, that way I watch it instead of having hours of tv on my pc that I'd probably never get around too, if that makes sense."

"fk 4:32 Great series, just a shame it’s only shown weekly as it’s a series easily viewed in one sitting. Was lovely seeing a brief shot of the Old Red Cow. Spent a fair few boozy afternoons and evenings in there when I worked in Bartholomew Close."
