Day of The Jackal starts tonite on Sky showcase, trailer looks mint anyway.

Indeed with Mark Rylance and Damien Lewis reprising their roles too.
Time to rewatch the original methinks.

Yeah, but yer'll only be able to 'watch' - yer'll be lucky if yer 'ear anything. And IIRC it was so dimly lit I thought our telly had lost half the juice.

Watched Until I Kill You this week. The Morse fellah turned out to be a bastard. But then he was a Scouser. But I was thoroughly shocked when I saw Delia, twice, riding her bike on the paths on Primrose Hill. No cycling on The Hill. It's quite clearly marked at each entrance!

Really enjoying The Penguin at the moment. Colin Farrell is brilliant.

Few other series I've watched over recent months include Yellowstone (plus the origin series), Mindhunter, Shogun, Mayor of Kingstown, Territory, Behind Her Eyes, Billy The Kid, House of the Dragon, Rings of Power.

I'd put The Penguin right up there.

The Mirror and the Light starts this Sunday for anyone interested.
It's the sequel to Wolf Hall.
Can't wait.

I started Wolf Hall last night after seeing your post. First episode was meh. Presume it gets better?

Yeah it does.
But I preferred the Tudors, which I thought was excellent

Depends what you like mate. If you like political intrigue and history supremely well written and acted it’s for you. I thought it was brilliant from the first to the last minute.

eh, no. Unless you mean Marlinspike, Thomas Moores black cat. :-)

Anne Boleyn is played by Claire Foy and she is a great actress.

‘Until I Kill You’ ITV. Watched the second episode last night and it’s very good. As always, Anna Maxwell-Martin is excellent.

Just watched the show about the real thing. Cops completely inept.

Watched first episode of The day of the jackal. Excellent stuff so far.
