Living (2022)

Up there with 'Brief Encounter'

[10/10 · 4 March 2023]

Think you maybe need to be of a certain age to really enjoy the film. The days when everything was written long hand on paper. Great locations - I'm a location 'junkie'. Spot on costumes & 50s settings. Mr. William's house reminded me of my Grandparents home. I remember the 'bomb sites' - though I luckily didn't live through the times that created those 'sites' - but spent happy times on such playgrounds. Excellent cast - Bill Nighy was perfect. Yes - a film that I will enjoy re-watching & a film I will recommend to friends. Hope it is enjoyed by many - as it does send a beautiful message. Enjoy.

Murder in Provence (2022– )

Roger is 'wasted' in this drama......

[8/10 · 7 August 2022]

I watch it 'cos it's colourful & the locations are great. But, Roger looks awkward & slightly embarrassed to be doing it.

Get back to 'Oxford' & soon!

Laurel Canyon (2020)

Why wasn't I there.....

[10/10 · 2 July 2022]

Amazing 3 part series. Covers a great time in music history. If you like mid 60s American music - you'll enjoy this. The opening chords of Mr Tambourine Man sung by the Byrds - still sends shivers down my spine.

The Larkins (2021–2022)

I'm quite enjoying it!

[6/10 · 17 October 2021]

Watch the Darling Buds many times. Luvd' it. But this is new & different and it's enjoyable viewing. Good cast. Makes a pleasant change on a Sunday evening.

Stephen (2021)

Gripping. Coogan is brilliant

[9/10 · 9 September 2021]

Brilliant drama. So well done. Need to see more from Steve Coogan.

News of the World (2020)

Worth a watch

[8/10 · 10 February 2021]

Anything Tom Hanks does ie worth watching. Anything Paul Greengrass directs is also worth watching

Pearl Harbor (2001)

Well I enjoyed it

[8/10 · 13 December 2020]

It might not be accurate. But it did what a film is meant to do - it told the story. Yes the actual event was terrible & an obscene waste of life. But, the film ensures those who died are never forgotton

All Creatures Great and Small (2020– )

Absolutely Luvin' it! Best adaptation EVER

[10/10 · 9 September 2020]

It's brilliant. Great cast. Fantastic locations. Thoroughly enjoyable. I 'think' the string used to tie the bumper up on the car was nylon - pretty sure it would have been 'proper' string

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017)

Best film I've seen in a long time

[10/10 · 20 July 2020]

No words - just watch it. How come this film didn't win every award going?

Hampstead (2017)

A nice feel good film

[8/10 · 12 June 2020]

I throughly enjoyed it Only small downside it was directed by that Epstein bloke who is now in prison!

McDonald & Dodds (2020– )

Breath of Bath's fresh air

[9/10 · 2 March 2020]

I throughly enjoyed the first episode. Sound if predictable plot. Great locations & fab back ground music - shades of Morse!

The Stranger (I) (2020)

It's worth a 10 really

[8/10 · 31 January 2020]

Enjoyed it. If you enjoy a good drama - then don't miss it. Simple as that.

Yellowstone (2018– )

Episode 1 - not sure

[22 January 2020]

I'm really not sure about this series - but, I'll give it a fair go. But, since when did a cow give birth and both Mum new born calf stand up & literally run off immediately after. That's a first in my book

Cobra (2020–2023)

Well, I enjoyed it

[8/10 · 17 January 2020]

Maybe I'm easily pleased - but, I enjoyed it. Hope we never see riots on the streets of GB.

Worzel Gummidge (2019– )

Simply perfect - don't miss it

[10/10 · 30 December 2019]

Huge fan of everything Mac does. Especially the Detectorists. This has a similar feel to it. Beautifully filmed. Lovely music. Great cast. Susan & John were very good.

Mayans M.C. (2018–2023)

SOA it isn't - but, it's OK for Winter viewing in the cold UK

[6/10 · 23 December 2019]

Did I spot 'Gemma'? I sure I did! It's something 'bikey' to watch in the Winter months

Hawaii Five-0 (2010–2020)

Great viewing on a winter's afternoon in the UK

[10/10 · 21 December 2019]

Loads better than the original series. Some episodes are better than the others - but, overall it's great viewing

Temple (2019–2021)

Watched all 8 episodes from series 1-roll on series 2!

[7/10 · 15 September 2019]

Watched & enjoyed. Good cast. Good locations. Good story. Yes, it's maybe a bit far fetched - but, that's drama. At times it is somewhat 'comedic'. Looking forward to S2
