Finished Inventing Anna on Netflix. I've mixed feeling on this. Watchable but not a classic.
The podcast is good on this - but I was slightly disappointed by the series.
Good casting of Anna though.

Currently watching Pam & Tommy on Disney+, 3 episodes in and I'm absolutely loving it, great cast.

Good to have the Peaky Blinders back on last night.  I'm also glad of the recap because it seems like an age since the last series.

It looks like it won't be available in the US until the whole season has been broadcast on BBC

Haven't got round to watching it yet, but they showed a clip of it on Googlebox one friday night and to say there was a WTF moment when Tommy is standing in front of a mirror talking to his manhood and it talking back!

Is it a bit comedic?

Nah not really, but there's the odd bit

Main Street

On a whim I downloaded the 3 series of Cracker, I haven't watched it since the mid 90s, it feels like a new viewing experience. Fitz has to be one of thee unique drams character composites ever created and pretty much only Robbie Coltrane could carry it off with aplomb.

Limmy can be very hit & miss bit the Millport  skit is a classic

Drive to survive is very well put together just so enjoyable especially for non F1 fans I'd say it's made a huge difference to it's popularity the last few years.

Our House starring Martin Compston - the storyline was far fetched, bordering on the ridiculous really.

*Spoiler...ish* BILLIONS



New series of Billions. I expected to drop this with a certain character now gone but I think it has continued to be just as good. Pleasantly surprised.

very much so.

Sat through it and wondered why at the end!

J70

The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey.

Samuel L Jackson series about a very old man with dimentia who is given an experimental treatment to temporarily restore ALL of his life's memories. Only three episodes in, but its enjoyable so far (although in fairness an actor as riveting to watch as Jackson can elevate just about anything).
