The lead actor is over dramatic. No subtlety at all.Quote:

I thought it sounded like a good show, but not sure I’ll continue with it much longer.
If he shouts "Angela" as many times in the next ep somebody should give him a good boot in the Mark McGraws! ☺Quote:

Not that I’ve watched that many in my time but it’s probably the most I’ve ever enjoyed a documentary series. Fascinating from start to finish every episode (and they aren’t short by any means!)... if that’s your sort of thing obviously.
I've just finished the first series of Unforgotten and was confused by an aspect of the ending.
Can anyone who's watched it recently explain the relationship between Claire (the old lady with Dementia) and her eldest son in the final episode? It seemed out of place with other events to the point that I'm wondering if I missed its significance.
Just watched episode 2 tonight and came on here to post the same thing. He says it 24 times in one scene.Quote:

I did an impression of him and 2 of my dogs staring barking at me.
Finished the final series of “The Bridge” the other night on the I-player.
Really good tv, we loved it.
A few wee quirks that irritated me a wee bit but it was generally excellent so they didn’t spoil it.
I also thought it was quite good to watch something with subtitles. Often these days you pick up your phone and lose attention etc. When you have to read the subtitles to know what’s going on you pay attention that little bit better, and it was quite good for me to immerse myself in it away from my phone, I think.
There's a new series on Alba called Tir Is Teanga.
It's a pretty simple concept. A guy visits an area, climbs a few hills or mountains and talks to a couple of people about the area. Episode 1 was in Knoydart and episode 2 was Glencoe.
It's just really easy watching. Loads of interesting information about how places were named and the influence of Norse, Gaelic and Scots on that. It's subtitled but I find Gaelic quite soothing to listen to so that just adds to it.
I love shows like that. Weirs way was excellent and the more up to date version with Paul Mureton is great as well.Quote:

I've watched the first 3 series but not got round to the last series yet. Unfortunately I did read the earlier posted spoiler.Quote:

The interview scene with Buckels was brilliant.Quote:

As well as not paying taxes on their earnings, most of these men end up in conflict with their host countries culture and find it difficult to integrate outside of their own ethnic group. All in all a great watch and a bit of an eye opener. Despite Brexit, "Auf Wiedersehen, Pet" has aged quite well.
It was a brilliant show and a must-watch for most people at the time.Quote:

I have the box set and return to it quite often. Classic writing although by modern standards the production is really clunky and some of the storylines don’t pass the modern PC test. 40 years old so hardly surprising. Timothy Spall as Barry and Wayne as the cockney geezer are class.Quote:
