The_Kincardine Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 13 hours ago, Silverton End said: We never enjoyed this series at all, gave up on it around episode 3, have enjoyed the previous ones but maybe it's now time to retire (with heavy heart) Perez's peacoat? 12 hours ago, The Minertaur said: I disagree. I quite enjoyed this season and would be delighted to see a season 6. The last scene in episode 5 was fantastic and set up for a decent enough finale. Perez really needs to get a dog. 10 hours ago, Silverton End said: Felt it was better when Shetland was 2-part stories, they started stretching it to 6-parts around series 3. Maybe a dog would help I'd vote for: -Another Shetland series. I like the cast, characters and scenery -Jimmy to ditch the pea coat. If he can fund Duncan's bistro he can buy a decent jaiket -For series (next) to be two episodes of 1.5 hrs with high production values. 'Endeavour' has been brilliant (apart from the end of the last episode) -For the Julie Graham character, who is a thoroughly decent actress, to do some actual police work rather than have this ongoing, "Are you sure about this, Jimmy? You have to carry the can" bollocks As far as a dug for Perez goes? Naw. It's not Scooby Doo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 24 Hours in Police Custody is infuriating, frightening and depressing tonight. How coppers refrain from knocking f**k out of people is pretty impressive. I couldn't do their job for any amount of money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How coppers refrain from knocking f**k out of people is pretty impressive. I couldn't do their job for any amount of money. In a word: bodycams. My dad was a policeman for 30 years. When he gets drunk he sometimes talks of the old days, when they would indeed take issue with someone - especially wife-beaters. Back in those days, not only did you need the woman "with a face like a pound of mince" as my dad would say, but she also needed to corroborate the physical evidence by saying her husband did it. Most women would not. Persistent offenders often found themselves on the wrong side of a couple of police truncheons. Couldn't do that now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

54_and_counting Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Baptiste was fantastic the whole way through, the end twist was kinda there to figure out eventually but still the whole series was well written and done brilliantly Surely a sequel will be made 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latino Lover Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 The Yorkshire ripper thing on bbc4 was extremely grim as expected but very good and doesn’t show the police in a good light at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fascinating and scary stuff. Just what a shambles the Police Chiefs running the whole thing were. It had a whole ‘Life on Mars’ TV programme feel with the amount of sexism going on. I was slightly too young to remember the Ripper killings and although I knew a bit about it I wasn’t really aware of the timeline and how it panned out. I did laugh I’m ashamed to say when they showed football footage with the crowd chanting “theres only one Yorkshire ripper”.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverton End Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Fleetwood Mac - a musical history, was on BBC 4 last night. An hour of great music, but it was basically just Edith Bowman, Fran Healy, KT Tunstall, Toyah Wilcox, saying how great the songs are. There were no interviews with any of Fleetwood Mac strangely. Enjoyed it though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandon Par Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Season 2 of Barry is barry eh? Mob hitman stumbles across an LA am-dram club and he has to juggle his hitman work with his new-found love of acting. Half hour shows. Quite funny/dark. Sky Atlantic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
