    That's true. TV didn't always have this level of quality and The Sopranos was the trailblazer for it. Still an amazing show.

    Talking about gangsters have you seen' lock stock' the series, brilliant and funny at the same time. Watching 'danger man ' at the minute also interesting in the 1960's, before 'the saint'

    Brilliant stuff.

    Finished series one of Mindhunter tonight, crap name but a quality show. Fascinating subject matter and a class act throughout.

    I'm gutted he's out of it Billy.

    He was brilliant in it.

    Can't wait for the next series.

    Going to download The Tunnel now.

    Top drawer isn't it, I thought it got better and better as it went on, after a relatively slow start.

    Potential for it to have a really good run if it's successful, no shortage of cases for them to take on.

    Only 7 & 8 to go. Brittany is excellent as Kaczynski. What a ****ed up time at Harvard he had, properly moulded him.

    Quite different to my 4 experimental yrs at Manchester from 89-93! Thankfully.

    We're on about different shows mate haha, Mindhunter and Manhunt. I've seen Manhunt on Netflix though and I'll take your recommendation and give it a watch. By the same token I think you would like Mindhunter.

    Without spoiling the plot, which female character would you most like to spend a fortnight with?
