    d/l The Little Drummer Girl now.
    Thanks for the tips. I like le Carré stuff.
    The film version of Tinker, Tailor was disappointing compared to the BBC original TV series.

    TLDG is a joint production of AMC (TWD, FTWD, Breaking Bad etc) and the Beeb.
    The AMC connection means it is available online through the usual sources ;)

    Aye I'm sure I'll get there as I do enjoy Le Carré stuff, otherwise I'll just have to enjoy Florence Pugh's reaction to it being a bit nippy.

    I thought TLDG looked promising, but a bit slow.

    Spin off
    Narcos: Mexico is an American crime drama web television series created and produced by Carlo Bernard and Doug Miro. Originally intended to be the fourth season of the Netflix original series Narcos, it was ultimately developed as a companion series focusing on the illegal drug trade in Mexico, whereas the parent series centered on the illegal drug trade in Colombia. The series is set to be released on November 16, 2018 on Netflix

    Making A Murder was a very good watch, Making A Murderer 2 is a completely pointless follow-on, in which absolutely nothing happens.

    Strangers on ITV which is based in Hong Kong is a good watch, for those (OLM comes to mind) who have been can really get a feeling for it as I did.

    Watched the first 30 minutes of Little Drummer Girl, albeit a little distracted, and lost track of what was happening....was the start of it the present, and then it goes back in the past to show how she was recruited. So I will give it a go properly in a few days

    Real time in the programme is 1979 with some flashbacks from that point. Its a confusing plot.

    Yeah, I figured that since they were still in jail, season 2 would be pointless.

    There's a lot of **** that the creators of Making a Murderer left out of the show which goes against Steven Avery, such as the fact that there was additional DNA evidence pointing towards him, Halbach's belongings were found at Avery's home, Avery and Halbach knew each other, several members of his family admitting Avery was an abusive man, among many other things.

    As gripping as it can be, it's not a massively reliable programme. The Confession Tapes and The Keepers were better IMO.
