Watched the Responder and while it started very well it lost its way at the end I felt and kind of fizzled out. No doubt about the acting though it was superb throughout just the storyline was a bit lacking I thought.

Watched the first 2 episodes of This is Going to Hurt and enjoyed them so far I hope it continues like that although it is quite grim!

Denn Forever

The book is funny and the sequel is more of the same so the writers have loads of material.
I have more respect for a man

Watched All of Us are Dead on Netflix, a Korean high school zombie thriller. Thought it was very good.

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.

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?

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.
