Impostor: The Man Who Came Back from the Dead on C4. Documentary about Nicholas Rossi or Arthur Knight or whatever else he's been called. He is one screwed up and dangerous guy.

He sounds like George Galloway.

Going through original Star Trek and not skipping the really pish episodes.

On the one where the US constitution somehow are holy words on another planet. Pure coincidence. 

Still, at least in the last episode Kirk saved the ship by snogging a lassie.

Still better than Star Trek: Burnham Does Everything.

I have never thought "I fancy rewatching Discovery". When this season is done, so am I. like Voyager, it will be in the past.

I have been through SNW a couple of times.

Brilliant episode of Race Across The World tonight.

Welled up after the chat Betty and James had, that was powerful stuff.

EDIT: Almost forgot about this moment…

I thought this was very good, the images on the evening news every night became a bit of a parody/joke, weird guy on oxygen being wheeled into Court etc, but this documentary gave us the whole picture of Arthur Knight, an absolute psychopath.

Secrets and Spies is a documentary about espionage during the Cold War.  It’s riveting.  

Stumbled across this the other day. Excellent.

Just discovered that the BBC have put their 1987 dramatisation of John Le Carre's 'A Perfect Spy' on iPlayer. This is a 'must watch' for any Le Carre fan. I believe it is his best book by far.

Peter Egan, Ray McInally, Alan Howard & Jane Booker are all excellent.

ETA - And Rudiger Weigang as Axel. 😃

Definitely recommend Amazon Primes The Boys. Just watched series 1 (8 episodes). Superheroes that are bad and bad guys that are good! Lots of adult humour blood and swearing and not for kids
