    If you have got SKY Max a series made by those involved in The Wire called We Own This City is well worth a watch.

    It used to be my favourite show - I actually rewatched all 8 series at the start of this year. Some of the series do start a little slower, but normally due it being set in a new location, or characters have a new assignment - so builds into the series and always ends well

    I've been uncertain whether to add it my list of stuff to watch. Premise sounds dull, but not seen a bad comment about it .

    Having said that everyone was all over Happy Valley and that was total bab.

    Why would his daughter want him to read stories to Jennifer Laurence in bed?

    Watched God Is A Bullet yesterday.

    Cops daughter gets kidnapped by satanic cult…he teams up with ex junkie ex cult member to find her.

    Sort of enjoyed it I think, but I’m not convinced at all that it’s based on a true story. Maybe different small stories massively fleshed out.
    Gets a bit stupid towards the end in terms of how great a shot the good guys are and how superbly **** the bad guys are.

    Some good moments though

    Watched the first two episodes of The Sixth Commandment and realised again what a superb actor Timothy Spall is.

    His is truly an astonishing performance.

    If being convincing enough that I constantly want to punch him in the face constitutes good acting then Éanna Hardwicke's knocking it out of the park anarl.

    It's one of those performances where you can't take your eyes of him, first time seeing him act.

    I watched Bastille Day (aka The Take) and The Commuter on Netflix recently. Neither are brilliant but engaging enough for 90 mins or so.
