Doubtless you already know this, but just in case, there's a good few Sci-Fi classics derived from his novels and short stories. Check out Total Recall (1990), Blade Runner (1982) and Minority Report (2002) if you've not already seen them. Did you see Man in the High castle?

Got where it was headed just wasn't sure the premise was worth the effort. Might give it another go though. Seen a good few shows I didn't take to first time around.

Anag Ram Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Finally got to watch Unbelievable on Netflix. Drama about two women detectives piecing together evidence to convict a serial rapist. Handles the subject very honestly but with sensitivity and is very well acted. I have been drawn in! Mostyn6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Break concentration and you'll miss something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow managed to get through 6 episodes of this absolute garbage. The ending was even stupider than I thought it could be. I remember now why I haven't watched ITV for 15 years. Watched that "This'll Hurt You" or whatever it was called on Iplayer. The one with the guy who played Q in the recent Bond's... Pretty good dark comedy. From my time in the NHS, each of the characters were all too recognisable. Anag Ram, therealhantsram and i-Ram 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hansie Cronje one was also well done for the Cricket fans out there. Edited March 1, 2022 by JoetheRam Gee SCREAMER !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have totally failed to move on in the binge-watching era. Still producing shows to cater for the audience they had 10+ years ago. Binge watching allows writers to deliver much more complex story telling and sophisticated plot lines. The Beeb have caught on, but ITV really haven't.

I think it’s just outstayed its welcome. I'll watch it, but I'm not especially looking forward to it. You're right - the first series was fantastic, witty, fresh and intriguing. It's got steadily worse since then - which is often the way when a TV show starts to become aware of it's own appeal and tries to write to order Chester40 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
