The IT Crowd binged & finished last night.
Excellent!!! One or two eps a bit meh but overall very very funny, a few had me crying:
The wheel chair/barman ep was fantastic, and Peter File. Douglas at the funeral, coffee over the tramp!!
The episode at the theatre really is hilarious. Funny enough, when I joined Netflix years back, I binged IT Crowd also and know what you mean regarding a coupld of eps here and there are a bit meh.Excellent!!! One or two eps a bit meh but overall very very funny, a few had me crying:

I've got 1 or 2 episodes left of this. Very enjoyable, there are quite a number of between-the-lines issues that are prevalent at that stage of life, but I feel it gets these messages across without being too preachy about it. I will say though....how can there be so many gays in just 1 school 
RE Maeve....am I the only one who finds her really rather pretty? I'm only 30, not 50....that makes it OK, right?
Loving series two so far. Watching it now. First episode with the car wRE Maeve....am I the only one who finds her really rather pretty?

king scene...And yes Maeve...stunning.

Spirited Away regularly appears in countdowns of greatest movies.For example it is no 15 on Empire's list of greatest movies of the 21st century so far.

Watched first episode of Sex Education last night. It’s a bit odd that it is a British series apparently set in an American high school in Seattle.
Season 1? Stick with it, it really is as good as people are making out. Think of it as a love letter to John Hughes.SpeckledJim said:
Is it suitable for my 8 year old daughter? I'll definitely give it a try but if I suggest a cartoon to Mrs Jim she might leave me.
Ach, difficult one. Suitable? Absolutely as in it's not inappropriate in any way, but I find it drags a lot in the middle to the point where younger kids (and me) can lose interest. But I think I'm very much in the minority.Ponyo is good as a gentle introduction to the genre https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsR3KVgBzSM
Do NOT watch grave of the fireflies unless you have mentally prepared yourself

Where do you get Seattle from? 
I admit it's a bit strange, being set in American style school, in the 80's but with smart phones..... but It kind of works.

I thought it was based in Ross On Wye.. or at least Sexy-Therapist's house is.
Amy cracks me up.. thankfully shes 23 too.

River Wye - Herefordshire.
A lot of it is down to lighting / filters / Postediting

And just enough 'minorities' to ensure that there is one for every white character to date.I dont think there is a single successful relationship that involves two people from the same cultural background is there?

This is true! That said, are there any successful relationships full stop? Gassing Station | TV, Film, Video Streaming & Radio | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
