    I'm now watching Madoff: The Monster Of Wall Street.

    I've got to be honest, it's made me fancy starting a ponzi scheme, I could do with $69b.

    He might be a crook, but he's a fairly impressive one and it's a very interesting watch (it seems US Regulators are even more hopeless than US law enforcement).

    I'm currently watching Deadwind on Netflix, it's a Nordic-noir crime drama starring the rather lovely Pihla Viitala.

    It's Finnish, no its' not, you're only half way through. :emoticon-0178-rock:

    It's been good so far.

    Watched it all. Not quite up to the standard of the Bridge or The Killing in the Scandi-Noir stakes but still worth watching.

    I think you're meant to watch the White episode last from what I've seen. I think it's set up that way in everyone's Netflix with the other eps randomised.

    It’s pink as that’s 6 months after the heist

    I finished the first series and you're right, it's not as good as some of the others, but still worth watching. I'll probably leave a gap before getting on the next two series.

    Quite enjoyed Shabba Cash (Easy Money) an update of a Swedish series from years ago. One of those you have to suspend belief a bit, there are gunfights reminiscent of Prohibition era Chicago. Also Unit One, a police series set in Denmark and Unit 42 set in Belgium. Also Jaguar, set in 1960s Spain about a concentration camp survivor tracking down a Nazi war criminal is worth a watch. As usual someone’s idea of a good watch mightnot be somebody else’s.<laugh>

    The Last of Us (HBO) is an American post-apocalyptic drama television series created by Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann for HBO. Based on the 2013 video game developed by Naughty Dog, the series follows Joel (Pedro Pascal), a smuggler tasked with escorting the teenage Ellie (Bella Ramsey) across a post-apocalyptic United States. The supporting cast features Gabriel Luna as Joel's younger brother Tommy, Merle Dandridge as resistance leader Marlene, and Anna Torv as Joel's smuggler partner Tess.

    Watched episode 1 looks promising

    was a very good first episode indeed and to whose who have played the game, it follows it very closely indeed

    episode 2 will be great.. beware the clickers

    Yeah, was watchable. No clue about the game so all new to me. Will be interesting to wee how it progresses.

    Pedro Pascal putting in a strong performance, but not keen on the young girl so far. Was also a liitle overlong for a first episode

    I don't do video games either as I am a grown up ;)
    Critics are saying it is the best adaptation of a video game for TV. Bella Ramsey played Lyanna Mormont in Game of Thrones.

    And the Mandalorian.

    He was in an indie movie called Prospect that was pretty good. Think it was on Netflix.
