Anag Ram Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Anyone seen Best Interests on BBC? Emotional and ethical dilemma as a family has to decide on whether to continue treatment on their teenage daughter. OMG it’s a tearjerker. Beautifully played out by the family members. Especially touching for my family. Don’t watch unless you’re in the right head space. But it’s brilliant. Comrade 86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob The Badger Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Mrs Badger is entirely underwhelmed with Guilt coming off the back of 4 seasons of Fauda and the final one of Succession. I think it's ok tbf, but it was an incredibly high standard to maintain. She is eyeing up The Bureau, a French-subtitled series that gets a rather impressive 8.7 on IMDb and also Asylum City which gets 7.7. Has anybody seen either?

It has a similar feel to it to Spiral. Not seen Asylum. Bob The Badger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must say that Guilt has stepped up a tad tonight with the end of the first series, but I shall make down The Bureau as having your seal of approval and watch next. If it's even close to Spiral, I shall be delighted. Comrade 86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were due to do some more but that hasn't occurred. Last thing I watched him in was the one he did with Colin Farrell for BBC. He was not good in that. Surprising, but I think maybe he has a character as an actor that suits him better than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfie Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Anyone seen The Watcher (Netflix)? It looks good & with a strong cast including Naomi Watts & Stiffler's mom but I'm 3 episodes in and the warning bells are starting to ring that after a strong start, it might end up being a bit pants by the end - style over substance?

Oh we watched the first one and then sacked it off because I saw that it was based on a true story, so I looked up the true story and realised that it was going to be a waste of time (no spoilers) Wolfie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stive Pesley Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 has anyone watched Deadloch on Amazon Prime? I've heard good things and the trailer made me laugh out loud a couple of times. It looks like a darkly humourous take on the homicide procedural/investigative scandi noir genre, but set in a bleak Tasmanian town rather than a bleak Danish town This extract from a review gives you an idea Quote We open with the discovery of a dead body on a beach and a dick joke, when one of the two young women who find the corpse accidentally drops a lit ciggie on his pubic hair It's next on our list anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very underrated show. Jack's great. Jeff Daniels is utterly menacing. Incredible to it's it's the same guy from Dumb and Dumber.

It feels like there will be endless twists without a conclusion - escpecially now I've just found out there will be a second season. Thnaks all, I'll bin it now & save the frustration.

May Contain Nuts Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 (edited) The Change by/starring Bridgette Christie (Channel 4), excellent folksy comedy about a woman who takes a break from her family and rides off to a village in the Forest of Dean to get away from it all for a bit. Not so much about the menopause as the title would suggest, plenty of odd rural characters, rituals etc and bridgette is typically excellent.

We kept watching it long after we realised it was utter toss (that is to say during the first episode). Stive Pesley and Wolfie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
