Yeah, redone it all as my wife didn't see it first time around. I'd forgotten just how harrowing the conclusion to series two is. Sarah Lancashire is just a thing of wonder to watch as well - it is a role that would be so easy to just completely over do and ham it up but she knows exactly how to move the meter, when, and in what direction. I do admit, I almost find it distracting - a bit like watching Messi when you realise you're not actually watching the game. Not complaining though, love it. therealhantsram, admira and Rev 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought 2 was better than 1, we really enjoyed it. The first one went a bit soap operaish at the end and felt like it was padded out. We're 3 into this last season and it's good. Sarah Derbyshire really is outstanding in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the one you can watch in any order. I watched Red, then Pink. Loved it so far . Stars Giancarlo Esposito (Gus Fring) Watched 2 episodes so far and enjoying it, but the idea that it's just as entertaining to watch in any order messes with my head a bit. Indeed I've seen some people say that watching the episode after the heist first is far too confusing as you don't know any of the characters, or what they are doing I know it's hardly unusual for episodic drama to have non-linear timelines and flashback episodes, but usually these are done with great care and for a reason. I'm already looking at the remaining episodes and thinking that I might just watch them in chronological order anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

admira Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 We are watching Motorhoming with Merton and Webster on C5, just because we have a VW camper. Paul Merton (who comes over as a bit of a dawk) and his patient wife Suki Webster. Worth a watch if you like travel programmes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Lockwood and co on Netflix looks to be a very good prospect,I've watched the first episode and it's excellent. Produced and directed by Joe Cornish (attack the block and Adam and Joe fame),it's a decent watch Hans Datdo-Dishes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamworthram Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I’m currently watching The Staircase on Now TV. A drama mini series based on a true story. Pretty good IMO if you can get past Colin Firth’s American accent. Don’t worry, it’s nowhere near as ridiculous as Daniel Craig’s in Glass Onion.

Crewton Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Anyone had a problem with ITVX? A few times now when we've tried to watch things, we've had sound but no picture. For the first time, last night, the picture disappeared after an ad-break two thirds of the way through a programme and we couldn't get it back. This hasn't happened with any other streaming service, nor with the old ITV Player. Any clues or ideas of how to fix would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought there were 10 episodes and it's only up to 3. I hope you're right because I can then stop paying for Paramount and take Sky up on their 1 month free movies offer that includes Paramount and get to see them all.

It's not infallible but IMDB shows the last episode of S02 airing that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mucker1884 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 As S3 is out, we went back and re-watched Happy Valley S1 & S2. Then this week, now S3 is done* we got straight into that (2x E's per night was the plan).. *Imagine our surprise then**, last night, when we went to go straight from E5 to E6, that there was no E6! ? A quick Google shows that's actually not on until tomorrow (Not last Sunday, as Muckerette thought). ? It's very rare I watch any TV... and even rarer that I actually enjoy it as much as I have with Happy Valley... so when she manages to cajole me into it, I have to do it in mini-binges, otherwise I lose interest. I've a good mind to deliberately miss the last episode, just to prove a point, and make Muckerette realise just how bloody frustrated I was last night! I've already enquired as to how she intends to make it up to me! ? ** Grr! Rage! etc. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
