[HairySpotter]

"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?"

[Manuel]

"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."

"aryMillingtonsGhost 2:06 Sun Dec 3 Also clocked “The Old Cow” As said already a good part of town.Even now.!! Agree,shame this series is a weekly release (cant remember waiting about for the previous two ,could be wrong) looking forward to Wednesday."

"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."

[jfk]

"Watched the first two episodes of series three Slow horses tonight,glad to report it’s as good as ever. Jackson Lamb (Gary Oldman) back to his obnoxious best."

[New Jersey]

"Another shout for Scrublands, thought it was very good! Also liked another Aussie drama, The Newsreader, enjoyed both series."

Just finished Scrublands on BBC 4 - Very good Australian drama. Enjoy.

[Manuel]

"jfk - Yep, always adds to the interest. I think Slow Horses is the only real series I have watched all year."

[jfk]

"Incidentally ,loads of Slow Horses was filmed around the Barbican/Goswell Road,Clerkenwell …… A part of Town I’m familiar with(office close to Barbican Station) which on a personal note makes the programme even more interesting. Third new series Apple TV starts Wednesday."

"Criminal Code on Netflix Brazilian cop, armed bank gang series Best thing I’ve seen lately Plenty of action but well written, filmed and good story"

[jfk]

Oops ffs

"Boat Story Was excellent, great characters, happy ever after, sort off."

[Alfs]

"Boat Story jumps the shark, IMO. Slow Horses returns next week. Now that's a show!"

[LeroysBoots]

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"""

[Iron Duke]

"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."

[zico]

"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."

[Mike Oxsaw]

"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."
