Watched the first Episode of Shogun (DisneyPlus) yesterday.
Ten Episodes being released on a weekly basis, three already released.
Looks great viewing, mixture of Japanese (with subtitles), and English (which is supposed to be Portuguese) - Always liked Hiroyuki Sanada since seeing him in the Last Samurai.
Really agree with the comment on the last Page about Blackthorne sounding like a modern day Richard Burton - His voice sounds so perfect for the role, not sure why.

I keep thinking our hero who does sounds like Richard Burton is going to say at some point 'broadsword calling Danny boy' 🤣
Anyone watch the 2nd series of Trigger Point with Vicky McClure?
Ridiculously far fetched but I enjoyed it. Interested if others did or not.
Based on the 1st series that we watched last year, we gave it a miss because we thought that was poor in all honesty. Remember that first scene when one of them hit the light switch or the floor pad (cant remember which way round it was!) and it made them look so bloody amateur because they'd never have done that in real life in a million years.
As no one else has mentioned, Married at First Sight Australia is warming up nicely.
We're about a week ahead of the UK scheduling on E4 as I've been downloading it and watching it on my Plex server and been going through 2 episodes a night for the last couple of weeks. Plenty of scandal ahead.
Lucinda, as annoying as she is, has the most soothing Aussie voice I think I've ever heard.
(Apologies for bringing the tone down in this thread!)

I think there is a good reason for that fella. You may have more luck with Married At First Sight on mumsnet
Finished the last season of Fauda and thought it was the best yet.
Please tell me there's going to be a series 5??
Yes, it’s been commissioned for a 5th but it’s been said they’re going to have to find a way to work the war into it. I wouldn’t be surprised if it never comes to light. Would be gutted, I loved Fauda. The actor who played Sagi was called up as a reservist and has been badly injured

Bloody hell! Really. He wasn't in great shape in the show last I saw him. Hope he pulls through.
I watched Generation Kill while waiting for new episodes of Masters of the Air. I think it's a great series. The dialogue is surprisingly funny. It doesn't have many combat action scenes but it kept my interest from start to finish. There were quite a few "what the hell"/"you couldn't make it up" moments and if I hadn't known the series was based on true events in the Iraq War I would definitely question the authenticity of it.🤣 I couldn't believe the famous USMC especially the First Division had so many incompetent people and seemed chaotic in action. Quite eye opening.
The Confession Killer - mid-way through this Netflix documentary about Henry Lee Lucas who confessed to hundreds of murders in the US. If you like crime stuff, it’s a good watch.

very watchable - we saw all 14 episodes over 3 or 4 nights

Love to see the Sexy Beast prequel what network is that on? Hope that nutter Ben Kingsley character is in it he was terrifying.

Loved Colin from Accounts. Thought that was one of the my programmes of the year last year (if it was last year!)

Sitcom from one of the Inbetweeners writers (and has the actors who played Jay and Simon in it) set in a double glazing sales firm in the 80s.
First series in particular was very funny.
Agree. Such a great series. Hope it gets sorted.
