Quite a cast! Off to find it now... :thumb:

EDIT: eztv only has ep 3 for some reason, but all 3 are available on Pirate Bay.
It’s because only three episodes have so far been broadcast

Wake up DB! "eztv only has ep 3" means it doesn't have eps 1 & 2, so don't waste your time going there! :laugh: :laugh:

Neither are on the usual sites - YTS, Hulu, etc.

I know this is probably no help, but both are on HDPrime!

Hmm..I downloaded it when it came out and binned it after 2 or 3 eps. Just thought it was poorly produced and acted which was a disappointment because I rate Tom Hughes as a fine up and coming actor. As it's a 2014 series you will struggle to find any downloads now. :cheers:

I'll put this here as it's not a documentary: The Speedshop

"Built for adventure. Titch Cormack and team turn broken bikes into beautiful bespoke machines to take on incredible life-affirming challenges, from Saharan sands to Icelandic snow."

3 episodes so far, available on iPlayer. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/ ... -speedshop

I'm not a technician/engineer type like some of you amazing people - you'll never find a dismantled motorbike engine on my kitchen table - and I have to force myself to ignore a lot of the machismo BS, but I do (or did! :laugh: ) like my motorbikes.

I'm only halfway through episode 1, but I'll stick my neck out and give this a tentative thumbs up. :thumb:

After a strong recommendation from Stephen King on twitter, I started this series. Spent the last 4 hours on it and thoroughly enjoying it. Severance. Right up my street. Bit weird, bit creepy. Not an action jammed series (so far) but keeps you wanting to know what's coming next.

'Well-cast, brilliantly-directed and edited, with one of the most spellbinding opening sequences in recent TV history, "Severance" is the perfect blend of Sci-fi, human interest, mystery, dystopia, and dark comedic undertones.'




I downloaded the full series at the top of the list here.

Oh, just searched and saw hhinner mentioned it already. Two thumbs up from me so far anyway.

TV series worth watching/downloading

Post by Dannie Boy »

I watched the first episode of six, of the Ipcress File on the ITV Hub last night. It’s a Cold War drama set in the 60’s and follows the book of the same name and Film made in 1965 which featured amongst other, Michael Caine.
I found it pretty good and looking forward to watching further episodes.

Also giving Severance a go.
