What TV are you watching?

Strike. Do all private eyes have to have quirky names. Cormaran Strike! Nice plot, and only 2 episodes. Not too taxing.
Nice chemistry between Tom Burke and Holiday Grainger, who both turned in good performances.

Gotham (S3) - signed up for a free month on Netflix to get this as Channel 5 still aren't showing any signs of airing it. Loved the first two series of this and S3 is just as good. Three episodes in and I'm hooked (again)

Im a huge Batman fan but really struggled to get into Gotham. I watched most of season one but it went on hiatus and I didn't go back.

Finished Defenders. Not too bad but I'm not a big Marval fan, but good tv .

Series 3 Outlander..

I really enjoyed most of Strike, but the overcomplicated plots grated a little. It was almost like it was trying to be a bit too clever.

I genuinely think it's one of the best shows on the box, but we all like different things. Up to Ep.8 now.

Going to go & watch last nights 'Diesel Brothers'


Anyone know when the new series of 'Gotham' starts (season 4)
The details, with the YouTube trailers, don't seem to reflect UK dates

S4 starts in the USA tonight - apparently Channel 5 will air it over here, but given they're still yet to show S3 goodness knows when they'll get round to broadcasting S4

Glitch, the Australian supernatural/bad-science thing turned out OK, a third series could happen, but I wouldn't mind if it doesn't. The finale of series two wrapped everything up quite nicely.

Also watched a 70s kid's ghost story called Come Back Lucy; low budget, poor production, bad acting, zero SFX yet still managed to be a bit creepy.

I felt the same way about the first two seasons - far too concerned with foreshadowing the origins of the characters. But season 3 is a step above, imo, even finding a way to parlay the endless repetition of Bruce's origin story into a plot point.

The Crown. On Netflix. OK I have a crush on Claire Foy but I'm watching on a sort of "Know thine enemy" basis, given either Phil the Greek or Her Madge will soon shuffle off and the whole world will go mad as a result.

 

[Richard A Thackeray]

Just watched 'Escape To The Chateau'.
Blimey, & to think that the first series threw up some problems
Roll on, what issues we'll see this time!

The Crown. On Netflix. OK I have a crush on Claire Foy

Is that the same Claire Foy, who was Adora Belle Dearheart, in 'Going Postal'?

The one and the same. Does a very good RP accent for a lass from the North.

Isn't she from Manchester?

Tin Star - continuing to watch, up to Ep 5 now and I've got to say it's gone off the boil a bit. Hopefully just a mid-season blip and it's been good enough so far to justify sticking with it.

Also watched the first of the new run of Escape to the Chateau and much as I liked the original series this one isn't working. A bit too much manufactured drama with crisis in the offing but averted at the last minute - phew! Worth another look next week I suppose.
