Watching anything good on TV?

[StephenFord]

Have just started watching a show called, 'Night Action' on a friend's recommendation, after 1 episode, I'm hooked!

I finished watching The Blacklist, am up to date with all the Law & Orders, & 911s, up to date with BlueBloods, and Ghosts (UK & US). Anyone any suggestions on what I should bookmark next?

currently bingeing seasons 13-18 NCIS, then 500gb of various boxsets to get into. The main one will be Space: Above and Beyond it only ran for 1 season as Fox kept piddling about with its timeslot so didnt get good figures.

'The Gold' on BBC.  

Dramatized version of the Brinks Mat robbery in the 80's.  Was surprised I'd never heard of it!

Use to love that show, had a crush on Thelma - please don't judge!

Old Stuff - Edge of Darkness - great music too

The Sopranos.....

 

And as for "The Gold", if I ever hear the trailer on R4 again, my radiogram is going out of the window !

Just started watching A Town Called Malice 👍

Race Across The World is on tonight. 

Don't think the current series (Canada) is quite as good as the pre-pandemic series where they actually raced across 'The World' but it's still a decent watch.

I dislike watching progs that give full and semi  celebrities a pay day, MOTD is heading that way.

That's a different program - 'Celebrity Hunted'.

Though I got the days muddled earlier, RATW is on tomorrow night, not tonight.

Inside the Factory is on tonight.  But it's about pork pies...don't think I want to know what they're made of!

I think you've already answered your own question there! As my mate says about the 'meat' in sausages - its two main constituents are:

1. the animal's lips

2.the bits at the other end from where the lips are

So why do they taste so good???

Finished watching the night agent on Netflix. That was good. 

[TomsFocus]

The pork pie factory wasn't so bad after all lol.

Also watched 'Naked Education' which was surprisingly good.  I went into it expecting it to be like Naked Attraction but it wasn't that at all.

I binged on it the last 2 days, it was excellent! That shoot out at the container yard, well, I was on the edge of my seat. Good news is that series 2 has been commissioned!

The only bad thing about it was Greg Wallace his voice and fake laugh they really jibe.

Derren Browns 'Showman' show was aired on Channel 4 last night.

Fantastic watch!  Very immersive and managed to hold my attention for the whole 2 hours.  And no he didn't coerce me into that...or did he...🤔

[Turvey]

Watched the first episode of The Hunt For Raoul Moat last night, was quite a good watch.

Tom, thank you. I never watch stuff like this, just doesn't appeal to me, however, on channel flicking yesterday, saw it was on and dipped in. Well, what a great watch! Of course, after every event I kept asking, 'how on earth did he do that??'. The big teddy bear (robinson) was just mind blowing LOL With a lovely moving ending too - well worth a watch! 

[StephenFord]

Just finished binge watching series one, all 6 episodes of Blue Lights. One of the best police dramas I have seen, though I am biased as it is made, and based in Belfast! A real gritty drama, with warts & all of policing here. So good, that on episode 2 I googled to see if it had been recommissioned for another series - it has. (Available on BBC iPlayer)

Latest episode (series 18 episode 8 )  of Wheeler Dealers did a Ford Focus ST Mk2.  A car that originally passed me by despite 225BHP and 150Mph, looks great. Needed some cylinder repair work on a rebore, but ended up really sweet...

just reading up on these as apparently had a Volvo engine, allegedly season 23 ep 8 or not depending what google throws at you

[TomsFocus]

I was still at school when the Mk2 ST was released.  Always wanted one in Electric Orange!  Eventually had to settle for a diesel in grandad spec instead.  

Anyone watch the new Car SOS last night?  I think @unofix would have appreciated it!
