@richard-latimer honestly had a lot of hope that line of duty would be better than GOT ending, especially after season 4 was so good with the caddie shenanigans, midsomer murders has a better plot twist every ep

The dot episode was way better than anything in this series. I did enjoy the cliffhanger left when Kate was facing off with Ryan Pilkington then to be honest it just went downhill really quickly. The years and years of build up for THAT!!!

@richard-latimer Ha ha, it’s not really my bag but I did hear the uproar after the finale so it didn’t change my mind

@richard-latimer I’ve never watched a single episode of GOT....I’m probably the only person in the country to say that!

And the way it ended I would advise you never bother

Only just watched as I was watching F1 earlier. It was a bit crap! You just wanted something good to happen, I was waiting for a bombshell but it was just ‘oh right, that was a bit average’

Think they'd been taking pointers from the writers of GOT on how to end an incredibly successful long running show haha!

Someone needs to shoot the fuckers who wrote the Line of Duty Finale. What a load of shite.

@john-folan Mare of Easttown is great so far, sky have always been doing well, flight attendant, the third day, chernobyl, gangs of london, the affair, the undoing, the good doctor and of course the massive HBO slots like Game of thrones etc, all have been good watches, underrated at times i feel as a subscription platform for their main channels. I hope they get to keep their HBO license agreement to keep showing all these

Loved Chernobyl. They have pumped out some amazing programs. My wife has NOW so between us we cover Netflix, Amazon, Disney and Sky. Flipping subscriptions lol

@john-folan what about it is worth the watch? Seems sky really upping their game. I watched the flight attendant which got annoying after a while but started strong.

The story, the characters. Actors are bringing their A game. Next episode not out till Monday so a bit gutted.

Watch ‘Mare of Easttown’. Kate Winslet is next level and this comes from someone who hated Titanic. Only two episodes available thus far but so worth it.

@john-folan I am, loving it. Although only 2 in - I firmly believe Disney bought marvel for Tv series and the later films really. They’ve nailed the series and will do the films well from now.

Just watched season 1 of "Shadow and Bone" on Netflix, fantasy drama but well written with good characters. Just hope they make a season 2....

Anyone watched Years and Years? Normal Manchester family drama which turns into a scary sci fi dystopian nightmare pretty quickly.

Also started watching Euphoria starring Zendaya. Pretty good so far.

@john-folan Nope, done with Disney for me, sub expired. Is it any good?

It's outstanding. They have nailed the Marvel TV Series so far.
