Game of thrones building up nicely.  Some nice "scenery" towards the end of that episode.  Both GOT and the walking dead are the hardest to avoid spoilers of if you fall behind.  Social media etc is plastered with coverage.

True, but folks like Tony B who are watching the first season five years after it aired can't really complain if they come across any major spoilers. Like the ep where Bran grows wings to replace his broken legs.

;D
You know that place you can't stay to long .. I hope he does .. He annoys me


I'm trying to decide on a really meaningful message..

Watched the first episode of Marcella. Not fussed so far.

On the second episode of 'The Five'. Going well so far.

Watched the last two episodes of The Five on Monday - I did enjoy it, though it was slightly confusing in parts, lots of different storylines that eventually come together.
I've read some Harlan Coben books, was strange to have a UK-based programme as his stories are US-based but it worked well enough.

I finished it the other night - not bad.  Lots of hooks and twists just like his books - enjoyable enough.

Episode 3 was very creepy in parts. Religion in general creeps me out, however those baptist loons take the biscuit !


Bombed through Line of Duty, what a brilliant show.

Aye it's good but unsurprisingly the family have tried to get it put off air. Some of the stuff appears very sensationalised so I can see why they might take offence. Nesbitt is a good creep.

general_lee

Dunno why the family are trying to get it pulled when the book had already been published. It's just a creepy, creepy story in general and a real tragedy also

screenexile

That's what grates me about these "This is a true story" programmes. . . the main events are true but everything around them including the conversations are all fabricated!!! For example one of the children has come out to say their Mother was portrayed as some pushover who fell to despair after her Father died and slept on the couch taking pills and wine when that was not the case.

It's very well don and creepy in the extreme but I think it is in bad taste when so many of the family are at such a young age to be affected by it!

Milltown Row2

Look to make it a drama there will be parts of it that aren't actually the way it happens but it wouldn't be good tv.... One thing is for sure, they killed and got away with it... Its not great acting to be fair but feck!! If you didn't know about the story you'd not believe it!! Madness how they got away with it
