I just love it for the human behaviour and how nasty and emotionally challenged the contestants have become. Normally with a show like that theres always someone I would prefer to win it but after day two I ****ing despised the lot of them 😀

Strangely, Mrs Bollah just told me that she’s been watching it on the iPad while the world cups been on and is now really enjoying it

I'm the same. Not normally my cup of tea but put it on for lack of anything else to watch and now hooked. Watching the paranoia creep in and them thinking they have tactics is gripping! I can't stand any of them

Yes, I think it was simmering away and I was trying to suss the characters out individually and then that couple (Tom and Alex) when Tom announced they were partners it was like a grenade going off 🤣

An absolute bitch fest from them all, particularly the laddie who fancied Alex, he was absolutely distraught, he thought he was going to marry her 🤣

The Scottish Masseuse was a hoot, he called that young lad a drama queen when he burst into tears and left the table, then the next day the Scottish guy spat out his dummy and had a similar strop at the breakfast table 🤣

Its so **** its unreal telly, its top rating as far as cringe fests go

I maybe need to get out more, but not until Traitors has finished 🤣

Totally agree, I reluctantly agreed to watch thinking it looked like nonsense.

But they are all such emotional wrecks that it’s hilarious and compulsive viewing! In the early stages it does seem a bit of impossible task for the faithful ones though. Have to laugh how easily some were influenced

I binged all 6 episodes of the traitors on Saturday night/Sunday morning. I’m absolutely hooked on it. It’s a bit like the early days of big brother. The drama is unreal but I’m absolutely getting caught up in it. Found myself crying more than once when someone has got upset. Kind of wish I’d waited to start it because I hate cliffhangers and it always ends on one.

Finished watching The Patient on Disney+
10 shortish episodes roughly 30 minutes each but with intros and credits maybe 20/25 minutes of actual story.
I enjoyed it, quite a dark intense story of a serial killer and his therapist. Steve Carrel plays the therapist in a very different role to what you might be used to with him.

**patch1875** · 13-12-2022 04:46 PM

Enjoying Echo 3 on Apple TV so far.

(Sky vip you can claim 6 months for free)

Finished Afterlife last night. Brilliant TV.

***Scouse Hibee*** · 14-12-2022 04:08 PM

Tokyo Vice, really enjoying it.

***Hibby70*** · 14-12-2022 05:17 PM

Watching Quicksand on Netflix. Swedish thriller about a school shooting. Been really good so far.

***CropleyWasGod*** · 14-12-2022 09:31 PM

BBC4 continuing its run of classic drama with The Crow Road.

It was my first exposure to the genius of Iain Banks.The book opens with the wonderful line... It was the day my grandmother exploded 😀

He was a great writer. His first SF novel opens with the main character literally up to his neck in ****.

Just finished The One on Netflix. Bit cheesy and some of the twists were obvious but certainly provokes some conversation with the other half lol

***Bridge hibs*** · 15-12-2022 08:15 AM

Enjoying Bad Sisters, Sharon Horgan stars. Comedy about 5 Irish Sisters who plot to get rid of their ******* of a Brother in Law but fail each time, slow burner but good when you get into it

***Hibbyradge*** · 15-12-2022 11:47 AM

I'm on episode 4 of "Rosie Malloy gives up everything".

It has some of the funniest lines I've heard in a TV programme for ages. Nice short episodes too so it's an easy binge.

Father Dougal and Mrs Doyle feature, but not as themselves, if you know what I mean.

**patch1875** · 16-12-2022 02:32 PM

Enjoying Black Bird on Apple.

***Hibbyradge*** · 16-12-2022 08:18 PM

Is anyone watching A Spy Among Friends?

I've just finished episode 1 and it's full of promise so fingers crossed it maintains its standards.

Good acting, intelligent script and who doesn't like a full blown Spy story?

Has anyone been watching His Dark Materials? It's passed me by but, just watched a trailer, it looks quite promising.

I'm about 5 episodes in, a bit of a slow burner but, a good story.

Just rattled through Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia, didn’t think I’d enjoy it that much but I’m loving it, on the last season now.

Love Always Sunny. It’s had its peaks and troughs, but that’s to be expected with so many seasons. Thought the last season was quite clever.

They have a podcast as well, where they loosely walk through each episode, but it’s essentially just an excuse to go off on tangents for an hour. Funny guys with a great natural chemistry.
