When we started I didn't realise that it's a couple of years old now, but it hasn't aged at all.
Four seasons so would make a good binge watching sesh.
In a nutshell, Sharon (played by Sharon Horgan) is a primary school teacher who meets an American businessman, Rob, at a bar in London on a night out (Rob is played by Rob Delaney) and they have a week long fling with lots of sex.
At the end of the week they go back to their respective lives and Rob clears off back to America.
Then he gets a phone call from Sharon to say that he's got her pregnant. Rob flies back to London and meets with Sharon, they decide to get married and start a life together and the rest is just a story of them trying to make a life together. Rob and Sharon have some very strange friends, too, to make things a bit more interesting.
It's brilliant. It's funny, well written and the on screen chemistry between Horgan and Delaney makes it sad to think they're not an actual real life couple.
Highly recommended, if a bit sweary in places.

Wow, worse than I had imagined!
The way the organisers seemed to be in complete denial about it all was pretty shocking too.
This has surprised me. I thought this was going to be hammy, cliched nonsense but it's actually pretty well written and acted nonsense that I'm finding very entertaining. I can even overlook Rufus Sewell's iffy American accent.
Magpie Murders on BBC iPlayer
Binged this on flights to and from Porto. An entertaining and fun whodunnit, which is what you expect from Anthony Horowitz and he delivers. A classy cast too. This is what BBC used to be good at all the time. Well worth a watch if you're fond of Agatha Christie type plots.
Yes. It’s brilliant…like The Sopranos with horses. And then the prequels, 1883 and 1923 are also excellent.
Haven't seen Yellowstone - heard mixed reviews but I'm encouraged by your opinion.
First series done. A tremendously good crime drama that turned into a slightly predictable action movie…
It is completely ridiculous!
Arnie pretending to be much younger, and failing. The amount of belief one has to suspend to just imagine the stunts, tech and plot are remotely feasible, and the stupid interpersonal relationship bollocks that we are meant to believe is happening in an elite CIA squad - give me a break.
But, I really enjoyed it. Arnie still cannot act and that's worth watching just on its own. Despite its ridiculousness it also quite funny and highly entertaining. Unless Arnie dies in the meantime there is almost certainly going to be a season 2, and I can't wait.

Songbirds on Amazon prime. A fascinating but frustrating documentary about a guitar museum.
I enjoyed first one so Will check the S2 out as well.
I missed it on release. I'm really enjoying it - it tracks the events and attitudes of the day as it moves through time very well.
The casting is spot on. The social attitudes from season 1 are quite shocking these days but of course accurate for the time. It's great. The little things are done as well as the main points. The delivery of their first photocopier was spot on, about the size of a car, taking up most of an office.
I'm in season 6 at the moment so about 1.5 seasons left.
I'm also watching the new series of Jack Ryan.
It's almost back to the form of season 1 after S2 and 3 being a bit crap considering the source material.

I wasn't too sure at first, there's lots of nudity and violence - so that's good - but I was finding the characters unlikeable and various subplots irritating. But it seems to be rapidly gaining some layers of sublety and complexity, and I've been told the later seasons are better than the first.
Recently watched Colin from accounts, which we really enjoyed, and Deadloch, which was really funny, but extremely sweary, which were fine with, but won’t suit everyone..
Recommended. Stick with it as it gets better as it progresses.
Just started season 2 of Star trek: strange new worlds on Paramount (via Amazon) and that's really good too.
Have you tried Justified with Timothy Olyphant?
I'm much more into films than series really - I don't like to commit to anything with dozens of episodes - but my brother's been telling me for years to watch Banshee. And I am a fan of The Boys so the presence of Antony Starr is a selling point.
Loved it.
