New season of Death In Paradise. It’s a bit shite but for some reason I love it. 

Yup, cheesy rubbish but a great watch. I didn't realise it was still on the go. Who's the white guy in it now?

I just finished five days at memorial.  

Excellent show about hurricane katrina and the devastation it caused at a hospital. 

 

I'm also on season 2 of the detectorists.  A gentle comedy on BBC.

Enjoying Kaleidoscope on Netflix. 

 

Spoiler

Weird casting choice though with Leo's daughter starting off played by a black kid then being played by a Black-Asian adult. How tf did she suddenly become part asian?

Halfway through " Tulsa King" with Sly Stallone.  Its not bad actually some really lol momments.  Like a bargain basement Sopranos but enjoyable nevertheless.

The Rig on Prime. Awful. Watched all of it only as I know a couple of folk who were involved in it. 

 

Load of nonsense.

24 Hours in A&E is back and in a different hospital now.

Finally managed to get out of London and is now based in Nottingham.

 

First episode features a lassie with an open ankle break/dislocation.

Foot literally hanging off. Not for the feint of heart.

:wow: :sob:

Had high hopes, got to episode 2 and couldnt watch anymore.

 

Every scene the acting felt wooden and the story was horrendous.

Watching 'Mountain Rescue' on My4 Walter Presents

 

A guilty pleasure - so crap it is somehow watchable. If you imagine Crossroads mixed up with ER  and re-sited to the Swedish mountain resorts with hospital mayhem ensuing. My partner and I are ashamed to say we are enjoying it...

Halfway through S3 of handmaid's tale and it's not as good as the first two series. Is it worth sticking with or is it all downhill from here ?

My guilty please was "Sea Patrol", an Australian navy drama from the late 2000s. Very cheesy soap/action drama but it was a hilarious watch.

Can’t stand anything with Compston in it. Vastly overrated actor.

 

He’s in that other nonsense about his pal dying of cancer. Equally rubbish.

Enjoying Maternal which started first series tonight at 9pm ITV1.

Medical drama about young mums struggling to balance home life + children with life as health professionals in a busy hospital. 

It seems different..not Holby or Casualty. 

It was a good first episode certainly.

Another vote for Tulsa King.  It is a bit uneven but better than most on the box. Stallone is good as are most of the cast. Also the Tulsa location makes a change from New York and the other more common US locations.

Last of us a very good first episode.

I know nothing about the game so I have no idea what happens.

I take it the Depeche Mode song means something.

I think it was the fact it was an 80s song, not sure if its important that it was Depeche Mode

House of the Dragons - on disc.

 

loved game of thrones and just binge watched this spin off. Superb. Loved it 10/10 easy

Loved that much that I went out and bought the book, pretty sure ive now ruined season two which arrives in 2024 , but I wasnt up for the wait.

 

Last of Us looks very promising, although with it being based on a video game im dodging spoilers on youtube like Old Firm highlights.
