    Instead of watching Love Island give Ice Road Rescue a go... set in Norway during the winter rescuing 40-50 tonne wagons...these guys are so clever in such dangerous and appalling conditions.

    We're halfway through a new series called Out There. It's about a county lines drug gang.

    Martin Clunes plays the lead role. It's very good!

    Hacks S3 on Sky now, it's a show I like a lot. Been watching S2 of Severance but I'm not sure about it, first series was brilliant but it feels a bit like it's spinning its wheels and doesn't really know where it's going.

    Watching Severance, I agree but I wonder of it's one where bits will fall in place?

    Just finished night agent series 2 on netflix. It's canny. Nothing amazing like but solid enough to watch. The main woman character annoys the **** out of me like.

    I hope so but I'm not confident, I get the feeling they're making it up as they go. Still a fun watch though, there's nothing else like it.

    High potential on Disney + is a decent watch if anyone wants something new

    For anyone who likes period drama's, The Hardacres is good.

    A working class family in Yorkshire who all work at a fish market strike it rich when their shares in a goldmine come up Trumps.

    Just watched the first two episodes of The Tower S3. Enjoyable, but one thing that does grate on me a bit is the shoehorned woke crap that this and most tv and films have these days.
    If an alien was studying Earth and took their references from western tv, they would think that humans procreate through same sex inter racial relationships.

    Had to switch that off about 2 episodes in. Plot is weak and the acting is terrible.

    Mrs K and me started watching a British based police procedural with some sort of supernatural overtones about four months ago. Can’t remember what it was called. There was something to do with a forest and it was set somewhere in the north. Lots of snow iirc. Anyway that was ****e as well. Turned off after an episode and a half. Plot was awful, crap acting with clichéd and hackneyed lines.
