that the one with Christina Applegate? I really liked the first 3 series. Didn't get to see the 4th.

There were only 3 series! I thought it was really good too.

My memory is getting worse! I must have watched the first 2 series, and not got round to the third then! Linda Cardellini is superb.

She is superb. I think the whole series is really well acted. Funny too!

The Gentlemen on Netflix. Usual Guy Ritchie romp. Easy to watch and quite enjoyable.

Added it to my watch list. I see there's also a film?

The film is a couple of years old now, Hugh Grant is brilliant in it.

I watched 20 days in Mariupol on all4 yesterday incredible journalism and a heartbreaking watch

Just finished watching Blue Lights. More focused on the Police than the criminals, set in Belfast this time but John Lynch plays the head of a drugs gang family a bit like the one in Kin. 6 episoded in Series 1, really enjoyed it

Finished The Gentlemen, it’s excellent. Well worth the watch. End felt a bit rushed but not a let down.

Yeah I've enjoyed it so far. A bit silly, but fun.

I'm 2 episodes in, it's watchable but thus far I prefer the film

I'm currently listening to Stephen King's '11.22.63' on Audible and noticed there is a series based on it on Prime, has anyone watched it? Reviews and ratings are pretty good and I am enjoying the book, is it worth giving the series a go?

Yeah it was good.

Preferred the book, but a good adaptation. James Franco leads.

Had a mini binge and caught up on Shogun this week, amazing TV. Sort of wish I’d waited for all ten to come out and done the lot in one go but I couldn’t wait any longer.

 

The cannon attack in episode 4 was absolutely brutal.

 

[ROVERT47]

Although I’ve watched it before I’ve just started watching Ken Burns the Civil War, he’s a brilliant documentary maker, it’s very poignant and with Trump set to become President again very fitting.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Watched Maverick tonight, was surprised how good it was. It was cheesy, it was nostalgic, the script wasn't great. But it was great fun.

It started well and has got better. The tension in episode 5 is played superbly. The actress playing Mariko is sensational. Somehow conveys a multitude of emotions while remaining emotionless.

Hiroyuki Sanada (Lord Yoshii Toranaga) is also a Producer for the series.
