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?

May I also recommend The Americans, it's one of my all time favourite series.
It's about a a pair of Russian spies living as a married American Couple in the USA during the 80's. It was created by a former FBI agent who worked in counter intelligence and whilst it isn't based on a true story it's considered to be extremely realistic in certain areas. It's brilliant and is just as much about the pairs relationship as it is about their work. The acting is superb as is the writing and production.
All six seasons are on Disney + and it's finale is considered one of the best of all time.

Definitely Luther as I haven't watched The Wire. Ruth Wilson brilliant and I love the Sussex coast scenes. Saw them filming it there years ago.
Currently watching "The Little Drummer Girl " Gritty adaptation of
John LeCarre novel.
Florence Pugh,Michael Shannon and Alexander Skarsgard are all brilliant.
Worth watching twice as there's quite a bit to it

Anyone made it to the end of Manifest. Got to the end of season 1. Tbh its OK but given there are 4 seasons I'm wondering how long they can drag the main plot on for before you actually find out why what happened, happened (hopefully that makes sense to those that have watched it). Is it worth perceiving with?

bell - Yea, I'll come and wipe your arse first though, son. Btw, Hijack is from Apple, it's a good watch if you haven't seen it.
Billy - No I don't. I saw a little of the Stephen Hendry and BFS one but got bored. Podcasts are not really my thing for some reason.

If you like a black comedy, Bad Sisters is decent

May I recommend, Evil on Sky/NowTV
I saw a review of it saying its the best series you'd never heard of. Its excellent, sort of a cross between X Files and the Exorcist. Very quirky, it straddles a line between being creepy and barking mad. There are times when it is serious and occasionally quite moving, and others when it is laugh out loud funny. The writers are very clever and are obviously having a whale of a time and the cast are excellent, especially the lead actress.
I highly recommend it, its fun and clever.
Youre welcome!

Finished Hijack - Enjoyable, no doubt, but as said a ridiculous motive and plot holes and loose ends galore, but good TV for sure. I really like Maskell, but don't think this role suited him, was from convincing as the chief hijacker, Elba was OK.

If you enjoyed the very Canadian humour that is Schitz's Creek, I can recommend Corner Gas. Similar humour without the slightly annoying amounts of gay.

We recently finished Unforgotten season 2. Staring Nicola Walker and Sanjeev Bhaskar. Excellent storytelling and thought it was much better than season 1. It's an ITV series....I downloaded it so didn't have to suffer the adverts.
