Knightfall is a history channel show about the Knights Templar. Historical accuracy has been put to the sword and it is a sub par budget Game of Thrones but it's entertaining enough with a decent cast. On Netflix.
just seen the first episode of the new Das Boot. glad they're not just remaking the old series. seems good so far.
could you give an opinion after a few episodes please? I'd like to watch this but I'm worried about it ruining the movie for me as it's firmly in my top 10 all-time
will do. probably catch another episode tomorrow. have to say it would be pretty difficult to be as good as the original series/film as that was superb. it certainly doesn't have the same claustrophobic and harrowing feel to it. Thats why i think it's a good idea to base it a year after those events, to keep the production German (though Sky have produced it) and to have two major plots. (slight spoiler though you find this out in the first episode) one part of the plot is about a new sub crew and the other plot line is about the French resistance.
problem so far is that the characters are a bit wooden. still i'll keep with it and say what i think of it at a later date.
sorry for the lateness but Das Boot for me its well worth watching @rina as its enough of a difference from the original as not to spoil your memory of the film.
obviously there are similarities and references, plus they use a bit of the soundtrack but its got its own story which means it has enough in it to accept this as a stand alone series. they did the right thing to keep away from just doing a re make. overall pretty good and I'm glad I kept with it.

Watched all of afterlife last night and was as great as expected Moving, funny amd sad all at the same time
Agreed Mate i watched all in one sitting Sunday eve really enjoyed it found it funny and surprisingly quite feel good considering what the whole thing is around
Watched the first part last night - found it very funny considering the subject matter.
It must have been hard for Ashley Jensen to act in this given the recent suicide of her husband.
New series of The OA out on Netflix today. I really enjoyed the first series but had no idea what was going on; really enjoyed s2e1 while still having no idea what's going on- will probably binge the whole lot this weekend
Very late to the party, but I think Fleabag is stunning. Series One I found shocking in places, but funny and insightful.
Series Two is on a different level. Powerful. Moving. Bloody hell.
Haven’t seen the most recent episode yet. having a heavy cold, and being stuck indoors, I suspect I’ll watch it today.
I enjoyed Season 1, but Season 2 has been way better. The first episode and third episode were totally cracking me up. Season 1 looking back was a bit rough around the edges (I've been re-watching as I've found S2 so funny) but still great.
My box gave up recording Baptiste for some reason...anyone know how many episodes there was, I can only have watched 2 or 3 so need to see if the rest are on iPlayer?

Yes, me too.
A twist had to be coming, and low and behold it did right at the end of the episode.
Sunday 31st March
Not to mention the excellent Vicky McClure.
The head nun is great
Absolutely brilliant.
Quite enjoying it.

The series should have finished after 3 or 4 episodes.
