Have started watching Such Brave Girls on iPlayer. If you like either Peep Show or Fleabag I think it's one for you.

Thought it was brilliant too. Loved the last episode.

I enjoyed Dept Q too.

Finally, getting round to watching Better Call Saul now. Finished season 1 last week so should keep me going for another few weeks anyway.

Finally started Apple Cider Vinegar. Very good so far and something that some people would need to see.

Watched Mixtape on BBC Iplayer, a great nostalgic romantic drama of first (& lost) love with some banging 90s tunes. Some easy watching with the Mrs.

Binged it over a few days there, really good. I assume there will be follow on series?

Based on a series of books so I'd assume so.

Great to have The Bear back. I've 7 or 8 watched of this season.  The same madness, with some great performances again.  Serious moments and laugh out loud moments as usual.

There are 3 very good Danish films based on the Dept.Q trilogy, The Keeper of Lost Causes, The Absent One and A Conspiracy of Faith, well worth the watch if you can. I had already read the books. This Netflix series was loyal to the first book and yet managed to add its own nuances to the story especially with the 3 lead characters, overall an excellent remake. Much of it was filmed in Leith (around Leith Links), right outside where I was staying for a while, I hadn't a notion that they were doing Dept Q, I just moaned about the imposed inconvenience.

New season of Southpark looks like it's gone even more out there.

Untamed on Netflix is worth a go.

Watched Unforgivable on the iPlayer. Difficult, unsettling but compelling
