I’ve just started re-watching Flight of the Concords. Loved it when it came out originally but I’d really recommend it if you haven’t seen it. It’s very funny.

They're turning kids into slaves
Just to make cheaper sneakers
But what's the real cost?
'Cause the sneakers don't seem that much cheaper

Watched "The Stand". Expected it to be abysmal, I think most Stephen King things are, but it was actually watchable and had a good cast.
Not great but not Bad.

Inspired by the recent BM TV top 100 poll, I wanted to watch something I hadn't seen before.

BBC's Wolf Hall (2015)

A six-part drama based on the book of the same name, charting the rapid rise to power of Thomas Cromwell during the times of Tudor England, and the court of King Henry the 8th.

Its a familiar but fascinating story about political maneuvering with stellar acting especially from Mark Rylance as the lead Cromwell and his foil Ann Boleyn played wickedly by Claire Foy.

Coupled with sumptuous cinematography, dim candle-lit backdrops and exquisite music to suit the mood, it's a mini series that has a compelling pace and presence that unfolds treachery at every corner, leaving me wanting to queue up the very next episode as soon as the current one finished.

Easily my favourite show I've watched throughout the lockdown period, and a big thank you to the BM Top 100 voters for highlighting this BBC masterpiece.

Fantastic isn't it ;-)
The trilogy of books is excellent too. Almost feels like you are really "there."

Masterpiece is a word that definitely should be used here.
One of the greatest pieces of television I've seen. Spoiled most things afterwards. You're definitely 'in it' rather than seeing the strings/seeing actors and immersed in a believable world (why I have an issue with the likes of Peaky Blinders).

I was expecting a second series but nothing yet....

Going to give Vikings a watch this morning after seeing the positive reviews on here!

Line of duty - repetitive shit
Unforgotten - repetitive shit
Keeping faith - dull, repetitive shit
