Mrs Sidhu Investigates (2023– )

Amusing cosy mystery

[8/10 · 10 October 2023]

I was a bit worried about watching this as even though I'd been looking forward to it when I first spotted it on IMDB I'd seen some very bad reviews.

However I'm a big fan of both Meera Syal and Craig Parkinson so I ploughed on with episode one regardless.

It was a gentle cosy mystery with some giggle moments. Light hearted and entertaining which is exactly what you want in a cosy mystery.

I do love crime drama and police procedurals but they can be a bit too bloody and disturbing. On the other hand cosy mysteries can be a bit flat so I was pleasantly surprised with this one.

My other half enjoyed this too and he reckons he's more discerning in his tastes than I am (I beg to differ...) Looking forward to watching more.

We Are Lady Parts (2021– )

Loved it

I binged watched the whole series in one sitting. Wasn't planning to - just a case of "I'll just watch the next one".

It's been a long time since I last watched a comedy that was actually funny. The whole cast was brilliant!

I really hope there'll be more series to come.
