Have to say
Slow horses is an excellent series

2 episodes in and Mr Bates vs The Post Office is excellent but a hard watch.

Do have to laugh at the headlines going with this series 'Biggest miscarriage of justice in British History'

Suppose it is a matter of perspective on that one  ;)

Biggest in this case does not mean worse, but most extensive.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Just finished Hijack about 6 months after everyone else.

Absolute garbage from beginning to end. Looked stylish because of Apple chucking money at Idris Elba but that's about it. Ludicrous plot that made no sense full of gaping holes, terribly written and, Elba apart, acted abominably.

Fool me once on Netflix is decent, plus it has Michelle Keegan so that's a bonus.
NEUTRAL

Heard Fool me Once is good

Watching Tourist atm it's so bad it's laughable but still watchable in a weird way

Decent enough show, passed a couple of evenings for us if nothing else.

Michelle Keegan makes it a bit better.

The Tourist turned out decent enough, just some stupid parts that were completely unnecessary, i.e. the basement stuff with the wee leprechaun - no need for it at all and made a bit of a joke of the thing. Really need to start using only northern actors for northern roles too. The ma's accent was terrible, far worse than Lisa Dwans in Bloodlands.

Jesus I thought it was shite enough. Didn't even bother finishing it.

Their names not great round these parts but The Crown is excellent from start to finish. The last series probably not the strongest but it was good. That appears to he the end of it as well.
