Enjoyed S1 of Money Heist (in Spanish with Eng subtitles). Watching S2E1 made me feel it was all being drawn out longer than necessary, so hope am proven wrong with the next episode or two.

Blimey. Seems that Netflix is going to revive Borgen for a fourth series. That's the good news. Bad news is, may not hit screens before 2022. They expect to re-run previous series. If you've never seen it, enjoy political drama, and are OK with subtitles, you should give it a go.
What with the hiatus in filming tv series and films, I wonder if broadcasters/streamers will start looking again at those series/films that got filmed and then rejected - we might get to see a whole realm of horrendous programmes in the coming months/years
Since Disney+ has been released and we have been in lockdown I have watched:
Agents of Shield
Only watched the first 2 seasons when it first came out then i stopped watching it so was good to catch up, although they dont have season 6 on Disney+ which is annoying as season 7 start next month.
The Simpsons
Its one of those programmes were you catch the odd episode and then miss a couple then watch a couple, but now I have watched 30 of the 31 seasons again Disney+ dont have season 31 yet
Watched ‘Normal People’ in three sessions on iPlayer. I thought it was extremely good. Not easy to do justice to a novel of that quality but it managed it.

Shite goalkeeping in E1, even for GAA.
lad didn't even move
I know, he would have been put on the field as a corner forward.

meh, watchable but not a classic, poor acting, very OTT in parts, not just the fight scenes, but also the near zero response from the police at any elongated incident *the pub at the funeral, the traveller camp, the fake flower warehouse all incidents that seemed to go on forever but received no police response either during or after, I see they left it open for a 2nd series, will probably watch but it won’t be on my waiting list.

Yeah. I'm struggling with it. Gratuitous violence is fine but a couple of the leads look like they'd be more comfortable in the Globe theatre than the head of London's largest crime family!
That scene in the gypo camp was like a scene from platoon.
The first 2 episodes of gangs of London had me hooked in, possibly the third as well but it got silly quickly. The lead character was colossally unlikeable, no redeeming features (Joe Cole, not the undercover copper). The PKK lady was excellent but generally it quickly became something that Sky Atlantic specialise in, expensive style over substance.
I stuck with it and wont be watching the second series. It looked the business and the fighting scenes were excellent but ultimately stuff like this needs a storyline and this just didnt have one
We finished normal people yesterday. Heavy watch at times and the two actors playing the leads were excellent
The decision making of the pair of these hugely emotionally mature and aware young people was astonishingly bad throughout and I accept that was needed to move the story I just struggled with some of the unpleasant situations they found themselves in of their own making. The actor who played Connors mum was brilliant and understated and the female lead must have been in more naked scenes in one series than most actresses are in a career! Like a young Ann Hathaway, she was good
I'm going back to gameface tonight for something a lot more fun though

Bailed!
During Ep 3. The gun blowing peoples heads clean off started making me chuckle and then the following scene where they dragged the injured fella into the house and onto the dining table whilst everyone was tucking into roast beef and spuds was the final straw.
The lead actor was also about as scary Dale Winton in a tu tu!

Yeah you wont be missing out, its beautifully shot and some really stylish effects and camera work used but that ultimately means jack all when there is no story and to be honest no characters I cared about other than the Albanian dude because he had a good beard. Although Narges Radhidi was good as Lale
The heads being shot clean off was pretty accurate given how close range he was using that shotgun at. Not that I've ever seen a human head be shot with one of them at that close a range but, ya know, that's a lot of shot comes out of them

S3 & S4 were good.
For the first time, am really looking forward to the final 2 next week.
