Thanks. Hopefully it will be soon. The first series was really good. Wee bit trivia M. Bonnar's co-star who's name escapes me was in the same year as him at Leith Academy.

Clee Toris got a mention last night.

My favourite clip so far is a presenter not understanding the difference between a computer virus and biological virus

Some of it was ok and some was downright dreadful, held my interest enough to watch s2.

Jamie Sives. Ruth Bradley was the star of the first series for me.

Yeah that's his name. It was annoying me for ages what I'd seen Ruth Bradley in before, eventually came back to me it was Love/Hate, she was good in that too.

On season 3 of startup now, only two episodes to go, this has been brilliant and I am hoping they will make more of this

There were actually three former Leith Academy pupils in the cast. Noof McEwan/Ousellam plays Cameron the gangster. He was in my year.

Wow. The biggest pile of rubbish I have seen in a long time! The opening scene was bad enough but by the time it got to the takeover of the space prison I simply could not take anymore.

Binned. Immediately.

I've just reached the end of the series, probably the biggest load of rubbish that I've persevered for for an entire series, looks like there's more to come, don't think I'll bother.

I admire your persistence….although quite how you managed that is beyond me! [emoji2957]

I’m currently on catch up with Startup. For some reason I had watched the first 3 episodes of the first season then stopped…picked it back up now, quality viewing for sure [emoji736]

The Handmaid's Tale continues to be fine viewing, probably not the cheeriest programme ever made though.

I reckon the theme this series will be "revenge".

Enjoying Clarkson’s Farm on Amazon

Exactly what you would expect from him lots of childish humour but it’s certainly gives a serious insight into running a farm.

I finally watched Time over the last couple of nights.

Thought it was brilliant. I like shows that challenge the ingrained prejudice a lot of people have: prisoners or criminals are all bad people who do bad things. Truth is plenty people who have committed crimes are decent people who have made bad mistakes and are sorry. It didn't shy away from the devastation their actions have but it showed both sides and all that goes with it.

I agree with that. Rather surprisingly so.

The real life characters were brilliant. From Kaleb not knowing who Moses was to Geralds indecipherable chat.

Agreed about Clarkson. I was worried it was gonna be the usual childish nonsense but it actually showed a lot of respect to the farming community with some usual Clarkson humour thrown in. Really enjoyed it.

I've read the books and enjoyed the series which is generally pretty faithfull to them (apart from 1 main character). The latest season has just been released on Amazon here and I'm looking forward to watching it.

I believe it may be based on the book Inside by John Hoskison who was a pro golfer who served years in jail after killing someone in the same circumstances as in the program.

It's one of the best books I've ever read and gives a fascinating insight into the prison system.

Watched the first couple of episodes of Limetown on Alibi, it's got a bit of potential.

I thought it was pretty good to start with, but it gets too far fetched, especially during the 2nd load of episodes that they released.
