Pretty creative.

David Tennant and Michael Sheen (playing themselves) were due to star in a production of 'Six Characters in Search of an Author' in the West End. The pandemic has put paid to that, but their director (Simon Evans - also playing himself) is determined not to let the opportunity pass him by. He knows how big a chance this is for him and turns his attention to cajoling his stars into rehearsing over the internet. All they need to do is read the first scene, but throughout the series they come up against a multitude of oppositional forces: distraction, boredom, home-schooling and their own egos.

Damn funny :ROFL: :ROFL: :ROFL:

So Quiz was really interesting.

Based on a true story.

In 2001, at the height of the public obsession with “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?,” a British army major named Charles Ingram and his wife, Diana, apparently swindled the British game show. The morning after Ingram bumbled his way to a million pounds, broadcaster ITV and production company Celador realized something had been amiss: a series of coughs by the Ingrams’ alleged accomplice, Tecwen Whittock, may have led Ingram to the answers. It was a massive scandal, resulting in a court case that found all three guilty. And to this day, everyone in England has an opinion about whether they did it.
 
The third Season of humans was hectic!

Finally got around to watching Deep State S01. Not bad. Should have been 6 episodes long though.
Will watch S02.
 
I thought the first series was pretty good but the second series I attempted about three or four times and can't remember if I finished it.

The one house looks a lot like the from from the Cage movie Lord of War.
 
I enjoyed it when Stapleton was shagging everyone in sight and Winchester trying to keep him on the straight and narrow. After they left the series went off course a bit.
