Didn't realise it was on Netflix. Got about 4 episodes in when it was on tv and the rest is on the Sky box and I need the space! It's brilliant and will try to see the others too.

Dunno if its been mentioned  before but I am really enjoying the Mighty Redcar on BBC 2  , found myself genuinely moved by some of the people and stories involved and a fantastic soundtrack too boot

Very well made series. Proper reality TV.

What's Killing Eve like ?

Quirky is probably the best word for it, but quite enjoyable.

Great recommendation lads, it's a real marathon, but it is fantastic. That's the way documentaries should be made.
I can only please one person per day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look good either

Anyone been following the Great Lighthouses of Ireland over the last few Sunday evenings? Fantastic scenery and an incredible story of some very ingenious and brave men (and women).

I love lighthouses and would love to stay on one during a storm, I think  :)

Walt Jabsco

Yes mandatory viewing for us pharologists. There are lighthouse keepers cottages for renting as a holiday let around the country. No rock stations though            https://www.irishlandmark.com/propertytag/by-the-sea/

Boycey

I've had a look at them already but the other halfs not as keen  ;D. I'd be looking a force 12 storm..

A rock station would be incredible or alternatively this (which I'm sure you'll have seen before) https://www.amusingplanet.com/2014/11/the-wave-swept-lighthouses-of-brittany.html?m=1

Walt Jabsco

If you had a choice of a stay on a rock station which one would it be?

Boycey

Somewhere along the west coast, Skelligs, Bullrock, Eagle Island, Tearacht Island. I reckon the weather would be way wilder that side..

I lived in Balbriggan as a child and my bedroom looked out at Rockabill I think thats where my fascination started.
