Plenty of cliches kicking about but the characters are likeable on the whole is my tuppence. We binged on it the last couple of weeks. Wife went to school with Declan as I'm sure so did half the country at this stage 😜

I still say it should have been called Lawn Order.

Agree with all of the above. It breaks little new ground but it's enjoyable and gets extra points for being local. A lot of local stuff is terrible so at least it's not that.

Well I'm calling it red lights a little too often for the wife's liking 🤭🤭

Yeah we had the Ra angle the loyalist angle with the drugs angle with a little bit of the big bad Dubliner coming up to really mess things up now thrown in.

But as I say the main 4/5 characters all likeable enough so enjoyable overall for my simple tastes

Some bad research this series though. Load of middle aged Lisburn Roadies who think they're all that absolutely horsing the coke into them in a private members' club? Should have just set and filmed it in the Chelsea.

And not one medical professional among them to help the aul fella.

Chrikers, was it that good?

Ed Gein worth a go? Seems like too many episodes to go through for his story.

The Inbetweeners making a comeback

Not sure that's a good idea. Those lads must be in their 40's now.

Probably be married and head off on stag party or something.

Task starring Mark Ruffalo. New HBO show from the guy who created Mare of Easttown. Really top notch stuff so far.
