Show Horses : Grave Danger Season 4, episode 5 Watched Oct 02, 2024 Not only was last night’s episode of Slow Horses glacially slow, it was also brutally boring right on up till it got violent and nasty at the end.

The Old Man Season 2, episodes 1 & 2 Watched Sept 14 I watched the double-header of Disney’s second season of The Old Man starring Jeff Bridges and John Lithgow, as ex CIA and FBI agents. And, well, am unconvinced they should have done a second season. That is to say, it was in comparison …Friday, September 13, 2024
I so love this show for the many layers of each and every episode. So much so, I now watch them a second time because I know I probably missed something.

Almost a satire in it’s ability to poke fun at British stereotypes. The Madame Blanc Mysteries which is …Wednesday, September 4, 2024
It feels like it’s been a long time in coming but, in truth, the last season finished in December. So we’ve only had to wait 9 months (a little like a pregnancy?) for the birth of season 4. And was the wait worth it? Damn right it was. As usual, there is always more going on than meets …Sunday, September 1, 2024
The Ipcress File ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mini Series Apple TV Well, colour me surprised, not only was this TV version of Len Deighton’s book almost true to the authors work, it improved upon the Michael Caine movie considerably. Though, I have to say, the lead in the TV show—Joe Cole—was no Michael Caine, he …
