    Fortitude series 3. Anyone else finished it and can explain?

    Seen it but can only explain it as bonkers!
    That’s what I’ve concluded so far! Is that the end or are they doing more do you know? Did like the way it reverted back to 1st episode. (Which we went back and watched)

    Just finished Escape from Dannemora on a Sky Atlantic. A bit of a slow burner but really enjoyed it.

    Luther was outstanding last night.

    Can't believe there is no more chat about or it's own discussion.

    Cracking TV IMO.

    Yeah its quality. A lot stronger than the two episodes in series 4.

    The couple are proper creepy.
  • Yep, not many programmes (if any) I'm clock watching for it to start and sit there and make sure I get no interruptions nowadays.

    Missus won't watch it, proper creepy, 100% bit of me.

    She stopped watching with the 'under the bed episode'

    Started watching a new series on netflix 'You' - very odd and not really what i expected, not sure if will continue 3 episodes in.

    Basically its about a guy that falls for a girl... but he stalks her, then kidnaps someone and just all very weird, even has a close relationship with a youngster (no suggestion of anything but just really odd) Hard describe, not sure whether to stick with it (Main girl is very nice)

    Not a tv series as such, but I've just watched the Inbetweeners reunion show. Thought it was awful. Gutted as I was really looking forward to it

    I can’t stand James Buckley . Everything he does or says annoys me and I’m not talking about his imbetweeners character. Those betting ads are the most annoying think on TV .He’s a typic , pathetic stripey Nigel .

    Really? I thought it was good, but a bit too tryhard... More like a horror film than a thriller... That said, i will be hooked watching the next two and Alice Morgan is a brilliant character

    I find her the worst part about the whole show.

  • Not new but stumbled across and re-watched the Young Offenders last night. Xmas special and realised it was last year's. Saw it out and then chose to revisit fridge episode. If there is a funnier 30 minutes
  • Two predictions for tomorrow night's Luther (spoilers for tonight's one....)



    Benny won't be dead.
    The surgeon bloke was in the ambulance that took the kidnap victim away.

    I've spent the last couple of days intermittently catching up with about 2 years of posts on this thread. Isn't it incredible how high our standards are now for tv? For years shit like prison break, 6 feet under, lost, heroes was considered real top end tv. Then along comes the wire, sons of anarchy, game of thrones and the bar is now higher than it is for feature films

    For what it's worth I've started You, which is ok but getting weirder by the episode. Catastrophe which made me giggle a couple of times in the very first episode. That was mainly the sanny van man from phoneshop and Ashley Jensen though

    White Gold I found funny. Some parts more than others but I would recommend it no two ways about it. People have either loved that or absolutely hated it, no meh inbetween

    People just do nothing is amusing, the characters are great and the actors are really good especially Chabuddy G but I don't think it's passed a 3 laugh test. I'm early into it after sporadically watching odd episodes over the last few years.

    Phoneshop I thoroughly recommend. The episode where they eat the weed cakes built up to something I nearly threw up laughing at
  • First couple if series of Prison Break were quality!

    "I did not kill that man Michael!"

    After that yeah it was pish.

    Ok that one was really good
  • Anyone got any thoughts on Fleabag (the show, not the owner of CAFC). Good, bad or indifferent?

    Yeah I did too, the main actor is perfect for that role

    In a time when binge watching tv series and box sets is so common place having a 4 part series on 4 consecutive nights rather than once a week really benefits a show like Luther.

    Watched the Christmas special "The young offenders", funny in places, overall not great. On BBCiPlayer.

    Yeah it was rubbish, shame as a Christmas special wasn’t necessary and doesn’t bode well for S2.

    Hopefully it was just a blip as S1 was brilliant (once I got to grips with the accent!).

    I'm bad at this
  • Thought that episode of Luther was a bit messy.

    Too much IMO.

    Just deal with the already good storyline

    Way too much... Too many unnecessary subplots. Alice shooting the copper was completely needless, and how on earth would she know they were there!?
  • Have to agree that the final episode was somewhat OTT.

    The series had been almost credible until that point.
  • Agree to an extent - the killers this series were very good, didn't need all the 'B plot' stuff to make it good.

  • For me character development is a huge part of anything I watch, so I couldn't imagine starting anything midway through, S1 of Luther is pretty good, imo.

    Yeah. I agree. Even if storyline wise there is no need to watch for series 1 I couldn’t start anywhere else.
