The Miami Showband Massacre on Netflix.

 

Absolutely astounding documentary. 

 

 

I watched this after reading your post.

 

Utterly astounding some of the info that came out of that?

 

What did you think actually happened. MI6?

Hell of a watch though.

I had never heard anything about it till you mentioned it.

Our Planet on Netflix, Attenborough's big new HD documentary series. The usual stunning HD imagery and also a strong message about conservation.

I can’t believe there’s not been mentions of Fleabag on here. Some of the smartest writing I’ve seen for a very long time. And then she went in to script Killing Eve also amazing television.

Totally agree. I missed out on the first series but was told about it by a mate and binge watched to catch up. 

 

Another I've enjoyed is Better Things (BBC iPlayer).  Gave it  ago , liked it and binge watched that when I had the flu.  The premise doesn't sound much and I'm not going to go into it here but would defo recommend.

That was absolutely brutal. Same with the penguins! That bit with the polar bears as well, man that was intense!

The Victim on BBC Iplayer. 

 

Scottish based drama about an attack on a guy who was exposed on social media as being the person who murdered a young boy. Now out of prison with a new identity is he who people claim he is?

 

Good watch - Kelly MacDonald and John Hannah are the big names but the star for me is the story.

That is a shame. As the story developed I found my thoughts on characters continually changing. 

 

Started What Remains on Iplayer last night. A mummified body is found in the attic of a flat. Watched the first couple last night and was quite good too.

Better Call Saul is a very slow burner but well worth sticking with it. And yes, Chester has weirdo tv taste :greggy:

Watching the ITV drama ‘The Widow’ . 

Really good albeit far fetched but it also has Kate Beckinsale ?

6 episodes shown with the final 2 next week. 

Recommended. Charles Dance also stars.

 

“A woman's search to uncover the mysterious disappearance of her husband leads her to the Congo, where she's forced to seek the truth about what happened to the man she loved.”

I've enjoyed it too. Quite an easy watch and an added bonus of seeing Kate in tight jeans with a rifle. ?

BBC are doing a 10 part 9/11 drama called the looming tower. Looks interesting.

Watched the whole of this on Prime over a few nights. Thought it was fantastic, just wish there had been more episodes☹️

Binged watched Line of Duty over the last few days and I’m now fully up to speed. Was thinking of watching Bodyguard as it’s written by the same guy and has a couple of people in it that were also in LOD. Is it worth a watch?

I read an article a respected writer a few days ago saying that Bodies was his best work. I missed it at the time but I thinks it's back on iPlayer.

It is on Iplayer. I hadnt heard of it but stumbled upon it at the weekend. Nearly finished it and it is pretty decent. Would put me of ever having a bairn if I were female.

Bonding on Netflix. Short episodes about a dominatrix and her gay pal. Very funny and an easy watch.

Chambers on Netflix - don’t watch. Poor poor stuff and very slow. 

 

The Victim on I player was excellent and very emotional.
