The War of the Worlds is now on BBC so a good quality Ep2 should be out 24 November then Ep3 on 1 December.
I actually enjoyed the first episode :unsure:

The sound production is a particular highlight for me

Most definitely...it was used masterfully in creating atmosphere.

I really enjoyed the factual part of this season as it was really easy to relate to because it was so recent.

Josh O'Connor ( The Durrells) was also brilliant casting as Prince Charles.

Sticks and Stones (starting 16 Dec 2019)

Thomas Benson is a Sales Associate at Clayton Office Solutions in Reading where he lives with his wife Jess, a nurse, and their young daughter, Millie, who was born deaf.

He’s good at his job and feels respected by his colleagues Andy, Isobel and Becky and his boss Chris Carter.

Thomas and the team give a pitch presentation to Janice Lancing and her team at Murray Technology but when the presentation goes badly wrong, Thomas panics and faints in front of everyone.

The team has lost a potentially large contract and with it the lucrative bonuses that would have been coming their way.

The team seem to lay the blame firmly at Thomas’s door. Is it his imagination or are his colleagues now out to get him? How will Thomas react when his work life is threatened?


Trailer in the link, but it is blocked from outside the UK it seems. Had to change to UK region to watch.

On episode 1 of Gold Digger. Seems this could hold my attention. I suspect daveza might like it for some reason...
