"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?"

"Problem with Moira is, as excellent a character she is (and Nurse is spot on with what she says), is that once Mrs C pointed out she was the mum in Home Alone, all I hear whenever she appears is “KEVIN!” Alexis is my current favourite - every little dropped in story about escaping from an Arab palace, car jacking in Johannesburg, how to break taped up wrists etc, and how Johnny reacts absolutely crack me up"

"Moira. It has to be Moira. Well, Moira's wigs and outfits, followed by Moira. I bet the costume designers on that show had an absolute blast."

Continuing the plough through Schitt’s Creek - about half way through now and absolutely love it. One of those programmes where your favourite character changes from week to week because they’re all so good
Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls
"Yeah, that's the one. Interesting that they're showing it on BBC4 directly after Line of Duty, for those who can't get enough of corrupt cops."

"Enjoyed The Terror on iPlayer and liking Unforgotten at the moment. Also, if you like a bit of true crime, Forensic: The Real CSI is good on the iPlayer."

Not a box set but the Lance Armstrong documentary is worth a watch.

"Talking of old TV shows and series about police corruption, Between the Lines is both, and just started repeats on BBC and the iPlayer. Been nearly 30 years since I seen it but remember it as being pretty decent."

"Sneaky Pete is excellent Ted, also a shout for For All Mankind, also the Morning Show, Mythic Quest and Ted Lasso are all good, Apple+"

The excellent Elizabeth R from 1971 starring Glenda Jackson has recently been repeated on BBC Four. An excellent series. It is available on Daily Motion while some episodes are still available on BBC iPlayer.

"Nurse Ratched 1:40 Sun Mar 21 Surprised you didn't give it more of a chance, seeing as it's pretty much the closest series there is to The Shield. I don't think any series comes across too well if you don't start from the beginning anyway, unless it's one of those shows where the story is done and dusted by the end of each episode. Spiral does tend to have a new main story each season but it's very much character focused so you'd miss out a lot by watching mid way through the whole series."

Anyone watched Sneaky Pete ? Read a bit about it and looks like it's watchable plus with Bryan Cranston involved it's got to be worth a look isn't it ?

"I tried watching Spiral, on gph's recommendation. I don’t know which episode it was, but I don’t think I started anywhere near the beginning. In the episode I watched, a female detective was teamed with a new male copper she had never met before. They started their investigation, and within about twenty minutes or so, she said to him (along the lines of) ""So, shall we have sex, then?"" At which point I rolled my eyes and switched it off. The French are extremely tedious."

"Yep, absolutely, so many sides to them as well...that's another good thing about it, people change and it captures that really well. Although when you say 'ugliness' I hope you're not talking about Laure? Won't have a bad word said about Laure."

Re: Tv Box sets thread again - recommendation pls
"Totally agree Exeter on your summary of Spiral, It's refreshing to watch people acting who look like they are interesting characters even in their ugliness (if that makes sense) instead of us & the yanks casting the actors in their roles from line up in Love Island...."
