I dont want to faff around I have afew hours to kill before Strictly starts😃 its my only day off this week and I cleaned and cooked. I dont care if its a comedy or drama as long as it doesnt have a rubbish ending like everything Ive seen lately. I basically have most streaming serices plus normal tv. I dont even mind paying for a film. Thanks 😃

I've just binge watched Gameface on All4. Don't know how I missed it the first time round. It's fabulous

It’s an old show but the series I’m into just now is The Wire.

Casa de papel
I was wondering why this wasn't mentioned, on Netflix it is listed as 'Money Heist' but watch it in Spanish with the subtitles.

The Barrier AKA La valla

The Platform AKA El hoyo

I seem to have discovered Spanish dystopia and love it.

Cordon - Flemish with subtitles

Designated survivor, I watched the US one but there is also a Korean version (I think and it's probably the original).

The walking dead. On series 8/9 now and still thoroughly gripped.

buzzy1 · 12/12/2021 08:39

Call My Agent is so entertaining
I’m also gripped by Impeachment atm
