I've watched 3 episodes now and really like it. So many series on Prime and Netflix seem to be rushed out and they're all a bit meh but Steal so far been excellent.

Watched 3 episode of "Blackshore" last night
started off OK but after the first episode I said I was worried about it just going down well worn paths
like the female DI coming in from under a clod in another area and magically solving things the local men have missed for years
seemed kinda OK
but then it has started to just disregard any sensible Police practise and go happily down well worn and rather obvious paths for no good reason
we may carry on until the end
but a bit disappointing

Perhaps he could try a job with the licencing department at the DVLA?

We did that last year and enjoyed it (again).
We're currently working our way through the whole of The West Wing, and did a huge double take last week when Special Agent Simon Donovan showed up in Series 3, Episode 18: Enemies foreign and domestic.

I finished this last night, I avoided looking up the results of the fights as I was going so there were some surprises in there for me. Its not perfect, it often doesn't make it clear with the fight summaries just which round things are happening in making it seem for instance Nigel Benn got knocked out the ring then immediately get back in and (accidently) headbutt his opponent - there were several rounds between those events.
I'm still not a fan of boxing, but as a glimpse into an era were 4 brits dominated the sport (and tried to dominate each other) its fascinating.

Terminator 2, first time it's been on Freeview for years while others are regularly shown, as far as I'm aware... 35 years old this year! 😱

Started on Foundation series 3. I've no idea how closely it sticks to Asimov's books but it's engaging enough, slightly baffling and looks fantastic.
Which service are you watching it in?

Superb movie. (I'm guessing you mean the later films are on a lot? Which they are, and they're rubbish! I think the first film - the 2nd best in the franchise - is also rarely broadcast).
Right up there in my top action movies ever. Plus it makes great use of perhaps the last great tune by Guns-n-Roses!

35 years?!? hard to believe ...

T1 has been on at least twice last week, again a rarity, the first two demand much higher costs to broadcast apparently and the latter films tend to be clumped together in cheaper broadcast packages.
Shocking how Robert Patrick has fallen apart over those ~35 years, he trained to sprint fast while breathing through his nose for the T1000 part aged ~31, but drugs and health issues have left him looking battered in recent years aged 67.

The Night Manager has been good, silly fun.
Absolutely shameless nods to Bond - the title sequence a case in point. The bit where he jumped on the motorbike and went after the car was pure Daniel Craig.
Tom H very easy on the eye, as is the femme fatale.
Did anyone notice in the last episode where they ended up at that house that must have been boarded up for years. Tom pulls a shirt out the wardrobe that appears crisply laundered and fits him perfectly!
