The new Andor season has been amazing. One of the best things to come out of the Star Wars Franchise.
Guy Ritichie's 'Mobland' with Tom Hardy, Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan is also brilliant if you're into your crime / gangster shows. Very addictive.

Having never watched any of the prior seasons, I watched the first 4 episodes of Season 4 of Clarkson’s Farm last night on Amazon Prime.
Whatever you think of Jeremy Clarkson as an individual, it is surprisingly entertaining for a show with such a simple premise where so little happens on the face of it! Watching Clarkson himself get to grips with the day to day of farming and get into various scrapes is really funny and endearing to watch, and some of the side characters, such as Kaleb, Gerald, Charlie and new farmhand Harriet are also really entertaining! In this series, we also get to watch Clarkson look into acquiring and opening a pub, which is equally fun to watch!
As well as being entertaining, I also personally found it very informative with regard to some of the struggles that UK farmers face. I had no idea about some of the rules surrounding government subsidies, for example, and I also had no idea about the decline of local abattoirs meaning that farmers can’t sell their produce locally as easily as they used to.

I recently binged King of the Hill over the last 2 months. I had previously tried watching KoTH a few years back but, as with most shows starting out, I had a hard time enjoying the characters and humour. I circled back after a group of friends began talking about it, and was relieved to find that KoTH was better and funnier than I remembered it being. Looking very forward to seeing the revival later this summer, especially now the new credits sequence and logline have been released, it looks like it's going to be a got-dang wild ride.

I recently binged the first 3 series.Having never watched any of the prior seasons, I watched the first 4 episodes of Season 4 of Clarkson’s Farm last night on Amazon Prime
Loved it. All the characters are great, love them. It’s got a great sound track, lovely scenery, it’s informative and highly entertaining.
(I met Clarkson once many many years ago when he was filming a top gear episode. He was a bit of a dick. I think this put me off.)
No doubt about it, this guy knows how to make quality tv. I think it’s great how he’s really highlighted the ridiculous red tape nonsense that farmers have to navigate.
I learnt so much about farming.
Charlie’s my favourite. I think he’s great. The one where he was representing Jeremy and another farmer and had to keep stepping over the fence and switching sides was quality.
I haven’t started series 4 yet but really looking forward to it.

I've been watching The Bombing of Pan Am 103. Only two episodes in so far but this is shaping up to be a high quality BBC drama. It's based around a shocking event but the grim subject matter is handled very sensitively, focusing less on the grisly details and more on the work of the investigation teams and local volunteers to collate and analyse the enormous amount of evidence gathered from the crash site and piece together the facts to determine who was responsible. Particularly interesting are the power struggles between investigators from the different affected nations - Scotland, England and the USA. Well worth a watch.

It is pretty good, but like most of these sorts of programmes, it seems to be overdramatised in places.I've been watching The Bombing of Pan Am 103.

I've just finished this, and completely agree. It's incredibly interesting and well done, whilst treating the subject sensitivity. I concur that it is well worth a watch.I've been watching The Bombing of Pan Am 103. Only two episodes in so far but this is shaping up to be a high quality BBC drama.

Just to lighten the mood, I've recently finished the latest series of Man like Mobeen and Power of Parker, both on BBC.
Both fairly easy watching, both very funny in places, and both have decent soundtracks. Nice telly to veg out to.
Edit to add: forgot to mention Death Valley. Very Welsh, also very easy watching, Timothy Spall very good as pompous actor, Gwyneth Keyworth a little bit annoying as the Kookie young detective but it's no worse than Ludvig (pompous puzzle setter) or Death in Paradise/Beyond Paradise (Kookie detective).

Finally watched this recently, and...I think I finally get that drag is more than a lot of people think it is. As I think has been mentioned before now, the conversations the queens have are so often really interesting, and give a great insight into their background and why they do drag.

Erm...It's hard to describe this without being in the Tavern, I'm not gonna lie.
I quite enjoy it, for the record.
