    Two mates having a laugh, it's brilliant simple TV with a couple of incredibly likeable and funny blokes. I love it.

    Watched the first episode of series 2 of SAS Rogue Heroes, just as brilliant as the first series better if anything. Great show.

    Caught up on Squid game 2, an interesting storyline development from the first series.

    The Christmas episode a while back where two blokes working in the same building for the same company but on different floors who had never met before was brilliant, top level stuff, from two real professionals.

    Really enjoyed it, hope it isn't a full year wait for the third and apparently final series.

    They could have struggled to keep it interesting but it was very good. Watched them all in about 2 days!

    We recently watched a series called Cross, Alex Cross made famous on screen by Morgan Freeman. Can't say I've seen any of the cast before, but it was excellent. The actor cast as the serial killer was very convincing and a true nut case!!

    Cant remember mate, It might have been 5 or 6 years back, it was at Xmas but thinking about it more, they usually play in first person , so I am wondering if it was part of the Gone Fishing series. I'm starting to think its me that needs help <laugh>.

    I will no doubt get completely lambasted for this but I really enjoyed Return to Paradise the spin off show on BBC. Really easy comfort tv and I was strangely attracted to the lead woman detective


    Must be getting old

    I know it’s not a series, but I put Megalopolis on the other day. I thought ‘Cravking cast, Francis ford Coppola, must be good”. Well that’s an hour of my life I will never get back.

    Erm, the film is 2 hours long, but it took all of my willpower to watch the first hour, and I’d honestly rather stare down the toilet after having a ****e than endure any more!!

    I've not bothered with it, sounded like it had so much promise too.

    ‘Missing You’ was decent enough but a little predictable. Just a typical Harlan Coben series, easy to fly through.

    Don’t!!

    I bought into the teaser trailer which made it look good and like it was going to “have” something! It didn’t
