I've taken out a 7 day free trial of Britbox, mainly to watch the Magpie Murders series. I've seen that Mum is also on there.

Is there anything else that I shouldn't miss before the trial ends?

Portofino Hotel
Sooooo disappointed with Magpie Murders

Portofino Hotel is brilliant. I enjoyed Irvine Welsh's Crime too. Smile

Grange Hill. Superb. Absolute gem showing the shift in attitudes over time.

I've watched four out of the six episodes so far and have been enjoying it. I love the books though and Lesley Manville. Hope the ending doesn't disappoint.

I rewatched crackercand prime suspect, 2.4 children was also good, wishing I still had to watch the other recommendations.

Tenko!

Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister. Both as relevant today as they were then.

I signed up for Crime - well what a load of tosh that was!!! Acting was truly abysmal by the lead characters.

However I loved magpie murders.

There's a new series coming out on 1st March which looks good. Cant remember what it's called though.

GinasGirl · 21/02/2022 19:52

We loved Magpie Murders and have just started Portofino hotel which looks good so far.

BellatrixOnABadDay · 21/02/2022 19:54

I rewatched Cranford on britbox recently and loved it.

Have just started rewatching Rome having watched it many years ago, I'd forgotten how funny it was at times.

MinnieJackson · 21/02/2022 19:56

Just finished deep water with Anna friel, I liked that. And the new itv Sheridan Smith one, and cleaning up.

PriamFarrl · 13/03/2022 22:03

Oh. What are you watching on? I use either my phone or the Apple TV and it’s on both of those.
