Poldark kicks off again this Sunday evening, 9PM.

Wonder is Ross the da of the young Warleggan ba due any day now as he'd a bit of bump and grind with the childhood sweetheart Elizabeth after the cousin (and her husband) passed away who married that snivelling wee shit George Warleggan the da before he goes and bankrupts Rosses mine by calling in the depts.

It's all go down in Cornwall with all the eye candy of Demelza, Elizabeth and the lovely Lady Caroline Penvenen

Just finished season 1 of 'The Girlfriend Experience' on Amazon prime there. A law student turned high class escort. Decent show. Just don't watch it with the children around! A right bit of dirt in it.

Had a day off there and watched it over the weekend/Monday. Sakes Jim that's as grim a series as I've ever watched. Very dark!!!

You watched it though  ;) I see the next season hasn't been released but Anna Friel is in it.

Can't get into Person of Interest at all. Will stick with it but it's boring me slightly.

Watched the finale of Leftovers S3 (to be aired in UK in July). An underwhelming finale and S3 overall was just ok. It couldn't live up to S2 anyway, S2 was just outstanding TV.

I was the same with Person of Interest and sacked it off after about 5 episodes. I like the sound of The Girlfriend Experience. Last episode of House of Cards tonight and then a new boxset will be hit.

You watch some shite.

POI is brilliant.

The Leftovers was a brilliant show, unique in that it was all done in 3 short seasons.

Didn't realise it's back on, think it's a great show to be honest
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Very disappointed to learn that Designated Survivor has 21 episodes instead of the 12 episodes I thought it was. I'm far enough into it that I need to finish it out but my god it's awful

There are about five musical crescendos in every episode just after the boul Kiefer explains a political concept to everybody on screen and the viewer. It's like 24 (awful) crossed with an idiot's version of the West Wing.

The Ba is born a month early under a black moon ( all got a bit GOT there), the auld Aunt reckons its Ross's who's managed to pin Demelza again in the meantime, feckin hornball. Warleggan is going to boot the auld Aunt out for her jip.
Bergerac has bit the dust the same night and the niece has went and married the doctor on the sly, ker ching there for the doctor lad.

I could never get into period dramas at all, but this and there is another one I'm watching at the minute, Versailles, and they are great shows
