I agree, it's got a lot better.

I have been avoiding it. Perhaps I should take a look.....

Do have a watch, but stick with it, it does get better.

I watched 'The Cruel Sea' yet again last night. One of the great films.....

Just watched Kate and Koji on ITV. Enjoyed it . Old fashioned sort of sitcom. No foul language, classy cast, and just a bit of politically incorrect edge. Good.

Watched Penance earlier on catch up ch5, then watched tonight's, really worth a watch. Last one tomorrow night. Give it a watch.

I watched the first four episodes of Line of Duty back to back. I am revising for when the new one arrives....

Kate and Koji got as near as you can a 'rave ' review in the daily Mail. i think we have seen the birth of a classic?

Talking of classics. I recommend everyone to go on Youtube and watch repeats of Yes Minister. You will not get much political insight but you might have a good laugh......

Likewise there are lots of past radio programmes on Radio 4 in BBC Sounds. For example, `Just a Minute' goes back a long way if you want something light-hearted. Michael Rosen's Word of Mouth episodes are interesting, as are Laurie Taylor's Thinking Allowed. Both presenters are pleasing to listen to.

I find that reviewing back to back Line of Duty videos completely blanks out Covid19!

Same again, brilliant series and erases the pandemic completely!

This is great fun...
`Joanna Lumley’s Hidden Caribbean: Havana to Haiti' LINK

My solitary confinement has become a bit easier since I stumbled across the return of RPGTV on Channel 176 Freesat. Racing without a crowd, and keeping distance for the staff - but I can't see it continuing for long.

There's Chess on the web too - the candidates tournament to play Carlsen for the world title later in the year. Chess

Never got into chess David, probably as well.
I was on Line of Duty again! That's my intellectual level.

Watched the beginning of a new series on bbc1 last night, The Nest, looks like it could be good. Problem was, there seemed to be a lot of muttering going on, so we ended up clicking the subtitles on.

Couldn't cope with watching that, having been unable to have children ourselves I still find the issue painful after all these years.

Commiserations Wendy. Life can be so unfair and what a wonderful mother you would have been.

Probably not!!

We'll agree to differ...
I am still immersed on Line of Duty! (My next target will be Spooks!)

More Line of Duty. What a good series that was!

I have been watchin The Durrells (My Family and other Animals) now it's on Netfix (no ad breaks). It's nice easy, funny watching.

Watched Belgravia on catch up last night, easy watching, very Downton. Better than I thought it would be after the first one.

Try Wayfarin' Stranger on BBC Scotland now. My music for the last 60 years. The high lonesome sound.

Wayfarin Stranger

PS - A bit disappointing, too much Ireland and Scotland. Next may be better - Appalachian. More to my taste. These are the sort of programmes that will vanish if the BBC stops being publicly funded.
