    Not sure (without going back through all posts) if it's been mentioned...........




    Hell on wheels. Now running in it's 3rd series. I'm just finishing the first series and enjoying every minute of it (thanks to Blackheath addick for the heads up).

    Started watching this while I was off work sick this week. Have to say it is brilliant so far. Cheers for the recommendation Tango!

    When House finished I was a bit stuck; but over the summer I got through all the episodes of Bones and I'm now up to date with it; a pretty decent watch with the girlfriend.

    Dexter I was enjoying; currently on Season 4 but haven't watched it in a few weeks now.

    Breaking Bad has been my real love affair recently though; based on the views of you guys I gave it a go about 6 weeks ago; on the latest season now.

    I'm also enjoying "Elementary" though; and as its the first season there's no catch up to do. It's a modern take on Sherlock Holmes... Kinda.

    Same with "Perception" which has just finished; cracking watch - if only for the fitty in it and the hallucinations.

    That said, I'm definitely getting vibes of House from the last two.

    Saw the first episode of Elementary when I was over in the states, personally thought it was awful but tbf that's only based off 1 episode. Has nothing on BBCs Sherlock.

    You probably get vibes of those House in those 2 as Gregory House is based on Sherlock Holmes.

    Anyone else see Utopia on Ch4 on Tuesday? 6 part series but very fast moving and intriguing.

    Missed the start and saw about 10 mins of it half way through. Recorded it on ch4+1 as it did enough to get me interested.

    Yes, we watched this, bolloxbolder.

    Pretty violent stuff but well worth following through IMHO.

    I've just watched the first couple of series of 'Louie'. Funniest thing I've seen for years. Really dry/dark humour.

    Yes if anyone likes torture check out the scene with the eyes! Chilies, sand and then bleach followed by gauging out with a tea spoon.

    Like it. Simple, inoffensive, harmless fun. Won't win any awards but so what? A pleasant programme that doesn't rely on gratuitous sex and swearing to get laughs.

    Have been enjoying Ripper Street good cast, quirky characters and strong acting and storylines. Not your usual Sunday night fare but excellent all the same

    me too - can't believe I've watched all 6 episodes without worrying about the subtitles and after a while you forget you are basically reading the script !

    Acting and subject matter is superb Golf and the main female lead Sidse Babett Knudsen is right up my street.

    We think we know anything about coalition politics!

    Are you sure? Neil Maskell used to play football?

    AFKA and I were in the same year at school with Neil for years and he wasnt exactly the PE lessons type. Dont actually ever remember him being in PE lessons full stop. He certainly never played for the school team.

    Yes, loving Jerome Flynn in a very different role from usual.
