What TV are you watching?

Cried my eyes out watching Call the Midwife.

Marshals.

Watched episode 1 today. In some ways unsatisfying, but they only have 48 minutes to set the premise, and theyre doubtless assuming viewers will be familiar with the Yellowstone backstory, so I can forgive them for that a little.

Not bad. Will watch next week and report back.

just seen it advertised so i wll give it a go
yesterday i binge watched a man on the inside on netflix . ted danson as a retired chap who takes a job for a private eye investigating a theft in an old folks home .Sounds a bit dull but brilliant acting from everyone involved .

The Night Agent S3 Netflix.
Previous series have been tight intelligent(ish) action thrillers. This one just dragged its heals for 10 episodes as it checked in each neuk and corner to see if there was an extra back story to be eeked out to stretch the running time further. Once you're fed up after 8 episodes, it's difficult to let go.

Spot on, I'd say. Just started S3 of Fargo - hoping it doesn't go the same way, after the excellence of S1&2. Cautiously optimistic.

New on Netflix, Sara: La donna nell'ombra (Woman in the Shadows), another Italian giallo.

Set in Naples, so subtitles even more necessary than usual.

I tried watching The Lady against my better judgement, and I was losing the will to live after the first half hour. I just don't understand the fascination with the royals.

If you want a comparative scandal, think the Post Office.

But not a comparable reaction. It seems that voters who care about bills and taxes outnumber residents who care about sh!tty streets, rivers and beaches.

Well tonight's episode of silent witness was as clear as mud ....

Silent Witness seems to have been getting increasingly far fetched for a while now.

It's always Sunday night watching.

It was an awful lot better that ITV's Gone at 9pm last night that's for sure

I'm rather enjoying the Danish Badehotellet (Seaside Hotel), a low octane period drama set in 1927 with loads of great characters. Currently in its 6th series but I've started from the beginning. If anyone enjoyed Anne with an E on Netflix, you'd probably enjoy this too. It's subtitled so can be enjoyed whilst eating crisps, which is nice.

Just started watching this, enjoying it immensely.

Finished Small Prophets last week so thought I'd have a look at The Detectorists.
That one had completely passed me by but I'm really enjoying it.

Just started watching this, enjoying it immensely.

LOADS of people rave about this on the Walter Presents fb page, so my partner and I did try the first couple of episodes, but just wasn't for us.
I'd suggest we are very much in the minority though, but it just didn't capture our imagination, and seemed a bit pedestrian for me.

I've just finished the 8th and final episode of Spanish series Honor, and it was fantastic, even better than the Ring, but on a very similar level for me.

Twist after twist, and like the Ring, I did not see the end coming at all - it was gripping edge of your seat stuff, can't recommend it enough.

Quite a few lead actors, the judge chap Walter Presents fans will recognise from both series of Hierro, and I have to say I really rate him.

Looking it up, it appears it is a remake of an Israeli series from 2017 called Kvodo.
There is a Korean version as well, and a US version with Bryan Cranston, though I'd suspect having seen one there is no point in seeing the others - well unless they change the story/outcome I suppose.

I can't recommend it enough, 9.5/10 for me.
