Watched the first episode of the new series of Van Der Valk.
Utter rubbish - terrible story, wooden acting, and so easy to guess the very poor plot. Hope the next 2 episodes are better but dont hold out much hope :-(
If you think that's bad - try the original! Look up dated in the dictionary and there's a still from it...
Theme tune is still awesome though.
Watched the first couple of episodes of Count Abdulla on ITV, clever premise and a few good laugh out loud moments.
New Tim Spall drama on BBC iPlayer. The Sixth Commandment. Based on a true story (I believe the case was on 24hrs in police custody). Absolutely brilliant watch.

Only watched episode 1 so far. Spall was utterly brilliant.
We watched Sixth Commandment last night, watched the first episode and my girlfriend found it too upsetting so I guess I'll be watching the rest on my own haha.

Same for me. Mrs SB baled after the first episode so I watched the rest myself during a bout of insomnia. Absolutely brilliant acting all round although not the cheeriest thing to watch at three in the morning.

The actor playing Ben Field was really good - very convincing.
Currently enjoying traitors Australia. There's life in the format yet
Have only watched the first episode so far. Feels like too big a group, but time will tell for me.
I do find it's hard to figure out who is who at first. On third or fourth episode (they blend into one) and it's heating up nicely. I'm sure there will be a few twists. Just make sure you avoid any spoilers
Currently enjoying watching Crime on ITV. Adaptation of an Irvine Welsh novel. Set in Edinburgh (sub titles could be useful at times ). Diverse team of off the wall detectives trying to track a serial killer.
Mayans MC finished this week, last ever episode and a very high body count
This series I kept getting the feeling the producers had pulled money from it but they did have some big set pieces. It was a good ending however I cant help but feel it seemed rushed.
If you enjoyed Sons of Anarchy which I recommend to anyone you will like Mayans, gives a different angle and the actors have a genuine depth
Another 2 evenings dedicated to an American series at Fanackapan Towers.
Rabbit Hole - 8 episodes to take you on a thrilling journey, punctuated by unexpected twists & turns, with Kiefer Sutherland as the lead character. A tad complicated at times ( well, for me, anyway) but well worth sticking with.
May be available on other channels but we downloaded the series from Paramount Plus.

Good series, despite dodgy scottish accents at times.

Certainly are. Some great characters and an interesting storyline. Ken Stott looking a bit weird!
1923 on paramount. Avoiding the 2 dodgy accents (by english actors) its very entertaining. Prequal to yellowstone but follows themes of the era really well.
We've just had a free trial on Prime - not a fan usually as so much isn't free even after the subscription, but used it to catch up on Clarkson's Farm series 2.
I know he's not to everyone's taste, and bits of it are a bit one-sided and contrived, but its brilliant TV.
Apologies if this has been highlighted before - I've just been through the previous half a dozen pages and can't see it mentioned - but I finished The Bear (Disney +) last night. Set in a Chicago restaurant and essentially a drama (with some comedy) centred on cooking and family relationships. Took me a couple of episodes to get into it but once I did I binged it. Fabulous cooking scenes and intense emotions. The "Fishes" episode in series two is particularly outstanding.
Other things I've enjoyed/admired recently are Colin from accounts, the sixth commandment and the gallows pole.

Absolutely riveting.
Watched World on Fire series 2, episode 1 on Sunday when it was aired, then the remaining 5 last night.
Won't be everyone's cup of tea but we found it enjoyable enough to keep us interested until 1am this morning.
