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?

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

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.

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

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

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.

"The Wire are fantastic, both plots and actors top notch"
Isn't Idris Elba in The Wire?
