Colditz.

Got the whole series on a set of DVDs last year and now reminiscing.
Many would say the entire series is worth buying just for the episode 'Tweedledum'.
Funnily enough, I can appreciate that episode now but vaguely remember thinking it was one of the more boting ones when I saw it as a kid.

The whole series really has aged poorly and you can see things in the editing that just don't happen now. There's one episode where escapees are traveling through a forest and we see scenes in daylight and moonlight depending on who is speaking to who. I guess Robert Wagner wasn't always available at the same time as everyone else.

Anthony Valentine as Major Horst Mohn still scares me a bit tho.

Someone recently uploaded every episode of Watching onto YouTube so I binge-watched the lot.

Brilliant comedy with some fantastic lines in it.

Very enjoyable to the point that I bought the book of the same name which is the real history.
Amateur doesn't even begin to describe how they were at the start of the war

I watched Brass recently, a criminally underrated masterpiece of social class commentary. It’s also fecking hilarious.

Moonlighting.

Bruce Willis's TV career before he was cast as the lead in Die Hard. Extremely cheesy 80's series about a private detective agency which co-starred the scrumptious Cybill Shepherd. For reasons I can't quite put my finger on, because it is frankly not that great, I love it and am currently re-watching episodes occasionally.

The Professionals, currently being repeated on ITV4.

Loved watching it growing up, still enjoy it now. It's also fascinating to see how London has changed.
I haven't watched The Professionals since it was broadcast. Partly out of the fear of being embarrassed that I thought Bodie was the coolest person ever to have walked the planet. And that their car was the ultimate sports car.

Recently watched an episode of Tales of the Unexpected and the music still gets under my skin.

Always watch Only Fools as never tire of that and also love That 70's show and Coupling.
