  • Working my way through For All Mankind again. What a superb piece of TV that is. Magnificent. Also Slow Horses and lay night we started Bad Monkey. That’s pretty good as well.

    Got to give Apple credit, they do make some good stuff. The quality and attention to detail is superb, even if the show is naff. I was very excited to hear they were making Foundation, and the quality was outstanding. Never finished the first series, it was like watching paint dry. Likewise Silo. Dark Matter? I didn’t even make it to the end of the first episode.
















  • The Expanse (yet again!) but the main watch has been Those About To Die. Pretty good. A bit gruesome in places and the usual Roman filth, but not bad. Jamie Oliver’s latest - always find him watchable, I accept he’s a bit Marmite (for those not from UK it’s a love it or hate it thing) and he can usually provide a decent recipe idea or two. And finally Rings Of Power (again) in preparation for the new series.
