The Bureau (Le Bureau des Legends) is back today on Amazon via Sundance Now. Think there's a few fans of it on here. In my book, it's the greatest spy/security show ever created and it's not even close. Makes "by the numbers" shows like Homeland look shockingly shallow and amateur.

The Bureau (Le Bureau des Legends) is back today on Amazon via Sundance Now. Think there's a few tens of it on here. In my book, it's the greatest spy/security show ever created and it's not even close. Makes "by the numbers" shows like Homeland look shockingly shallow and amateur.

Superb show, one of the best I've watched. Only seen the first 4 series so I haven't seen series 5 but it really is gripping. So many brilliant characters in it. As you say it's a few levels better than homeland.

It's Season 5 coming out so you're up to date .

Not showing up on my Amazon just yet though.

The Jeffrey Epstein doc on Netflix. The background story of this guys rise to fame/fortune is extraordinary to say the least.

I find the names he associated with to be extraordinary - especially as they seem to have come away unscathed

Programme was mentioned here a couple of weeks back. One thing that I thought it didn't go in to enough was how he actually became so rich. He seemed to talk his way into a lot of his positions. I suppose that followed on into the abuse he inflicted on people

Hedge funds? In Wall street at that time he walked into, or talked his way into seriously high paying jobs, he was caught in one firm lying about his qualifications but obviously doing a great job so he was kept on, the guy who kept him on regretted that decision for sure.

A fecking creep of the highest order, continually buying his way out of trouble and his death came too soon to get to the bottom of his horrible past.

Sounds like he used Wexner (Owner of some huge retail chains like Victoria's Secret) as some kind of a Sugar Daddy... they didn't go into detail but inferred that Epstein was in a relationship with Wexner and basically ended up taking control of a lot of his assets during a period of time and amassed a serious fortune off the back of it.

I took the same - that he basically took a chunk of Wexner's fortune through some form (or invested it in his own name) while they were playing hide the sausage

I had heard before the program that he had blackmailed Wexner after some sort of relationship which was touched on in the show.

Started watching last night, instantly hooked. Similar to the Sinner

I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thriller with a wee bit of creepiness. Classic Stephen King.

Enjoyed it too. A few episodes too long but still very good.

Classic Stephen King in that it started of great and tailed off badly

Watched both Series of Das Boot over the past week - real quality  stuff.
