Its long enough to be a movie, but this is just part one so could be both.
Thanks!

STONEHOUSE (2023)

Bit late to the party on this one

But thoroughly enjoyed this 3 part drama/comedy based on true story of a Labour minister in the 70s who tried to fake his own death.

Matthew McFadden plays the lead role and is quite superb! 9/10

Bad Monkey Really enjoyed the 1st 2 streamed episodes.

Big fan of all the Carl Hiaasen books.

I've been binge watching 3 seasons of Mr Inbetween. An Australian series about a hit man. Probably not everybody's cup of tea, but I've been enjoying it. Short 25 minute episodes have helped.

There’s a drama in the UK shown on Channel 4 called Before We Die, that I thought was very good - two series of 6 and 5 episodes.

I will give it a go, although it only has a 32% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes!

I don't want to be unkind, but she looks far too old to be a police detective. She was 64 two months ago. :D

I'm watching High Country, an Australian police procedural set in a small remote town, which isn't a bad watch, but not 5 star.

Excellent series really enjoyed it

And the 25m episodes make it very bingeable

Like all good series it gets better as it goes along. 9/10

There is another Aussie cop drama called Troppo, which I've just started. Its a bit slow but watchable (especially if you've ever spent time in FNQ).

That Dirty Black Bag series is pretty good, a bit Netflixy in a few places, but good spaghetti western style. I definitely enjoyed it.

Lord of The Rings: Rings of Power season 2 started up and available.

Running thin of watchables at the moment so may give Kaos a go ...
