Read something about the showrunner, who left after season 4, returning - sounds promising.

Afterlife, brilliant. Ricky Gervais was excellent.

Life. BBC drama good also

Main Street

On BBC  this evening part 2 of Steve McQueen's 6 part mini series about the experience of West indian ethnic community living in London, starting from around the late1960s. The first episode "Mangrove" set in Ladbroke Grove was brilliant.

Finished Derek this week too. Very good too. A few episodes would make you sob like a baby. Some very emotional moments. Worth a watch.

All his other shows have finished after 2 seasons, but given the positive responses he had for Afterlife he's considering doing a 3rd season

Hopefully he will do another season of afterlife . Lillyhammer on netflix is excellent i dont know has it been mentioned about an ex mafia lad turned witness. Yellowstone about a big ranch near the yellowstone park and how everyone wants to take it and he will do anything to stop that happening .  911is another good show about a fire rescue station in america and all the mad things that happen on shift jeniffer love hewitt comes into it in season 3 i think and damn she is 🔥 🔥

Watched both of these, excellent. The second one reminded me of my "yoot" in deepest Small Heath. We used to go to those "Blues" parties and the programme caught the atmosphere of one of these brilliantly. There was always an underlying tension at them (not racial unless you call the West Indian's dislike of people not from their own island, or indeed the Jamaican's antagonism towards city/country people).

RTE's The Brigade last night, reliving the conditions of  Tom Barry's Flying Column (Kollume) 
One of the mentors referring to past history, said that the FC trained for 6 days in a rural setting and afterwards as a final test of merit, went out to look for 'targets of opportunity'.
Nicely put I thought.

The second season of The Mandalorian has been much better than the first.  In fact, it's probably better than some of the Star Wars films.

Watched Unbelievable last week, it was excellent.  Watched The Killing over the past few nights, was very good although a bit too Murder She Wrote at times.
