    Just checked and yep, it's there, will add it to my every growing list of shit to watch - it was much easier when I only had Netflix!

    Quite good, but can be pretty slow as they stretch out the plot sometimes.

    @Tim IIRC S2 was a bit slow all round, and I think I had given up and then people on here started talking about S3 and 4 so I persevered and they were better.

    Even Bobbie's accent improved through them too.

    It was Drummer's accent that killed me. Some sort of bastardised Saffa thing?

    That belter accent combined with self-consciously "tough girl" enunciation is fucking annoying.

    First episode and if I was the judge I'd not give such a bumbling panic merchant of a son an alibi.

    Edit: It seems that the judge's decision makes more sense with a little more viewing.

    Third episode and this kid is a fucking moron.

    Agreed

    But bloody good TV

    I kinda feel for the kid. Remember he has gone from being a normal 17yr old to being responsible for another kids death and on a mob hit-list overnight. The hit and run alone would fuck you up completely.

    Feel it’s a bit absent father (work) can’t tell me what to do.

    Mum/wife backstory will hopefully illuminate us

    @Bones That was The Singing Detective, but looks like it's blocked in the UK.

    Finished S2 of Swedish Dicks.

    Really good series, Sun is an awesome character!

    I wondered what I had seen McKinney on before too, and then I realised who she was haha

    :::

    Hope Axel and Sarah dont end up together (if they do another series)just seems too far fetched

    :::

    Also watched The Stranger, was pretty good.

    Just watched Barbarens (Barbarians - German produced Netflix)) and Queen's Gambit. One was purely entertaining once you went past the dramatic license that had to be applied, and the other was beautifully filmed, had some nice expository touches and left me wanting more despite a very clean conclusion. I'm not a huge chess person, I can't play for shit but I know some of the history opf chess and thankfully this was not some re-telling of Bobby Fischer which would have left me reaching for my Luger, but some classy acting and atmospheric detail that killed.

    Barbarens is sort of Centurion meets King Arthur but thankfully was made by ze Germans so we do not get American accents featuring at all.

    @SynicBast I was impressed by how historically accurate Barbarians was. There's room for a second season too.

    It paasses the eyetest admirably and only those who actually studied the Teutoburger Wald battle and events would have enough reading to know most of the liberties that were taken, but the dialogue was excellent at presenting the various attitudes and it was fun to hear spoken 1st century latin rather than that bastardised crap that ended up as chruch latin

    Queens Gambit has apparently gotten a lot of people back into chess, me included. My boys realised really quickly while on holiday that the best way to beat me was ensure I was a bit distracted ( ie in one case someone turned up at the Bach while we were having a game so I had to stop and chat to them ).

    Fuck knows how the main character ( forgotten her name already ) managed to beat multiple people at once.
