People just do nothing, a fly on the wall documentary about a London pirate radio station.

Not rolling on the floor funny, but it's an amusing way to pass half an hour.

Yes, channelling my inner teen angst into it. Seems to be popular, but it's not amazing by any stretch so far, I'm up to ep.4.

The main female character is very good though and well acted IMO.

Just finished watching the final episode.. it's is well worth a watch, not epic but a strong story of possible real life intrigue.
Although we didn't, it could quite easily be a Binge watch series.

Sat down after lunch to start building my 'daughter's' <cough> lego millennium falcon. Put this on in background. I have just started ep 10 and the lego has been cast aside hehe I was too young to remember the details, but you really couldn't make it up. Great programme.

Not sure if I've mentioned this, however Santa Clarita Diet.

It's brilliant, very funny, each episode is only half an hour and it stars the rather lovely Drew Barrymore.
Hope they're going to do a second series, we loved this, too.
+1 for Santa Clarita Diet.

I watched it all last weekend; the wife wasn't feeling well so she went to bed early a couple of nights, I watched it in 2 sittings.
Just finishing this. I've been saving it for a long weekend as knew it was going to be good. Haven't put it down. Definitely my kind of thing.

Watched Brotherhood last night, 3rd of the Kidulthood / Adulthood series of films - whilst I wasnt particularly taken with the first 2 films (too much teenage wannabe gangster stuff) this was better and had a bit less of the blud / bruv / fam bullst. Worth a watch if you've seen the first 2 films.

'Don't look down'

Richard Branson's hot air balloon crossings of the Atlantic and the Pacific, edge of the seat stuff for an hour and a half.

Bloody brilliant.

I finished Fauda at the weekend. Not too bad, some twists and turns but not too taxing.

I tried but couldn't get past the ham fisted dubbing into English.

Pity as it did look quite good otherwise.

I always change the settings to local language and English subtitles, much better that way.

Very good that, the story with the witches was my favourite.

Thanks - I didn't think of that!

Just gave it a try and yes, it's much better - just watched another couple of episodes smile

Was just going to come on here and post about it!

6 episodes in now.
The lead actor is awesome. I saw him in goosebumps and a few other things. Really makes this series.

First episode was good, second was terrible, and after that it gets better.
Not a fan of the lead girl, she makes it a little "dawson's creeky"

really recommend it. Not as good as stranger things, but still very good.
