That's basically why I didn't make it past the first couple of episodes. Perhaps I should give it another go...

You definitely should, it's top quality.

Just get used to the fact that they are all totally f*cked up and you'll be fine!

Which to be fair, with all that money and power it would be easy to be like that.

THE TWELVE 2023

Just completed this 10 part Australian courtroom drama, starring Sam Neill(Jurassic Park).

It focuses on the lives of all 12 jurors as well as a murder case itself.

It's based on a Belgian Netflix series from 2019.

Solid stuff... 7.5/10

I'm in the process of downloading a 2022 David Attenborough series called Prehistoric Planet from eztv. Looks fascinating. Season 2 has just been released.

"White House Plumbers" an irreverent look at Watergate starring Woody Harrelson and Justin Theroux. An intellectual "Dumb and Dumber" :laugh: :laugh:

There’s a 4 part drama starting tonight on ITV in the UK about the Litvinenko poisoning back in 2006 and starring David Tennant as Litvinenko - looks like it will be worth watching but I’ll give feedback in due course.

It came out a while ago, last year I think. You can see it on ITVX. It's very good.

I had a feeling that it had been on TV before, so they’re obviously showing it this week as a repeat but not mentioning it!!

Yep, on Prime. 10 weekly episodes over the next couple of months. I'll wait for a bit.

I've just downloaded some more episodes of Silo, which I'm enjoying. I've also downloaded season 1 of Ark.

Star Trek - you still have to pay for, Prime member or not (unless you take out a Paramount+ trial)......

Downloaded some of Silo but not yet watched - does sound good though. :thumb:

Yes, I forgot. Not a problem, it's all on eztv, as are the first 8 of 10 Silo episodes.
