Keep it sensible please! Also let's keep it politics free?
As I'm sure many of us are watching more TV than we ever have, what are we all watching these days?
Any films/shows you'd definitely recommend or avoid?
I'm just about to sit down and watch Ted Lasso after hearing good reviews, "An American football coach Ted Lasso is hired by a wealthy divorcee to coach the English soccer team AFC Richmond".

Ozark on Netflix is good but I expect most people have watched it now. The battered bastards of baseball on Netflix is worth a watch also . Gotta be honest , I’m struggling now 🤷♂️

During the day, usually Maddie's Do You Know, after my daughter has gone to bed, my wife's house or garden makeover programmes.
With homeschooling and working from home, I no longer get any time to myself. When I do, I tend to go for light hearted shows I can dip in and out of like Only Connect or House of Games.

If you want a half decent film to watch, The Dig is reasonable. Netflix.

Only watched it a few times ..... the presenter is nice though 👌 One week she wore a very low cut top, didn't get any right. 😊 My wife used to watch too, once we caught an episode on iPlayer and I did really well, she was dead impressed. I had to confess later to having watched that particular episode before when it was on live TV. 😇

The Queens Gambit on Netflix was good.
Also if you like Ricky Gervais (who normally I don't) Afterlife is worth a watch.

If you like movies based on true events the following on Netflix are all very good..
The Zookeepers Wife The boy who harnessed the wind The red sea diving resort Changeling

Clare got Netflix and was watching the crown....
It showed Lancaster bombers flying over Windsor castle in 1940.... They weren't even in service until 1942....
As you can tell.... I'm fun at parties.... When we can have them again....

I've been rewatching all my favourite TV shows as I've been working from home with plenty of spare time.
So from start to finish I've watched The Wire(Greatest TV Show ever made), The Sopranos, Breaking Bad, The Corner, Homicide:Life On The Street, Oz, Boardwalk Empire and Cracker, again.
David Simon the writer behind The Wire has also done some other work which is great aswell, Treme, The Deuce and Show Me A Hero are great series that have gone under the radar
It's A Sin is pretty good for something new, the soundtrack is fantastic.
