British series, mini-series and dramas .....

I know you Keeley fans reference Bodyguard and Spooks but did y'all see Line of Duty S2?

That was my introduction to her and its like being a Charlize Theron in 2003 with Monster.
 
Y'all need to stop perving on Keeley.

She's mine- you can look but don't touch.

Ps: She called, said she really has a thing for older guys,

She's 20 years younger than you...and guess what: she's married to Tom of "Succession"....interesting combo indeed.

Have to say I binned Breeders. Couldn't get past all the unnecessary swearing in the first five minutes.

Binging through all ten series of Spooks though, love a fresh and young Keeley Hawes.

That's the thing. It's very necessary. That's almost exactly my experience (obviously exaggerated for comedic effect. Although maybe not, I only have 1 kid...).
Eg. "I am a rational, patient, calm human being". Kid pushes all my buttons for 5 minutes. "I am an insane, psychopath WTF is that laaitie doing jou ma..." etc. etc.)

I'm certainly not denying the reality of the situation it's just that I can choose what to watch. I feel sorry for all the parents in lock-down with small kids. Thumbs up to you guys.
 
First episode of Killing Eve season 3 hit the BBC iPlayer last night. Looks like a weekly release.

Also, a new 3 part drama that I’ve been dying to see started on ITV last night. Based on the Who Wants to be a Millionaire coughing scandal that I remember watching at the time. Michael Sheen plays the host Chris Tarrant.

Why do they have a British actor playing a Dutch detective I wonder?

Terrible reviews....some of them really funny too. I love the Dutch heading and really LoL'ed:

Volslagen Onzin

Man alive this is bad... When the show came up in my TV listings I was excited having been a fan of Barry Foster's VdV. Within twenty minutes of the start of Marc Warren's version, my head was swimming with the sheer wretchedness of it all.
Awful, clunky dialogue that thinks it's fast paced and witty but falls flat every time, creakingly wooden supporting actors for whom even am-dram would appear to be a bridge too far (especially Luke Allen-Gale and Darrell D'Silva as the boringly inevitable laconic pathologist), and a dullard, wannabe hip plot that spends too much time stating it's social awareness credentials but precious little engaging the viewer on any level whatsoever.

Unutterable nonsense.
 
Re: Van der Valk: Yep, not terribly impressed. Not quite bad enough that we wanted to stop mid-episode, but at one stage my finger hovered over the button whilst I looked at the wife who said: "Well, it's this or M*A*S*H...."
