As suggested by the post by F&D on the Films thread, we watched the first episode of The Outsider (Sky Atlantic) last night. Wooo. Now that was very good - and we are ensnared. Stephen King...what do you have in store for us...!
What tickles me with MSM is that on any other show when a murder takes place there is an incident room, lots of officers involved etc. They have a serial killer on the loose each week and yet there are only 2 people working the case. Where is the Capt Dobey demanding results? (that is for the oldies out there

Its the blandness that gets me. The stories and characters are so dull. There's none of the eccentricities of John Nettles' era, none of the countryside ways just bizarre themes which are flogged to death (pardon the pun) during the episode. There is a lack of subtlety and the clever writing which were part of Nettles' era. Also none of the humour. MM was always and escapist, tongue in cheek, not meant to be accurate sort of program but it also used to be amusing, witty and well written.

Exposed: The churches dark secret
Just watched both parts of this. Extremely disturbing about the whole cover up of abuse by Peter Ball. The hierarchy in the Church were so intent on keeping the image of the Church clean that they had no concern for the people who had been abused. And the fact that this monster was protected by not only the Church but also by others high up. This is not a reflection on the Church of England as I know similar things have happened in other religions (and, sadly, are probably still happening). As is often in the case in these situations, the victims are made to feel like they're in the wrong.
You have to have nothing but admiration for those who were interviewed on the programme and those who stood up to declare what was going on. A pity nobody did anything about it.

Finally got round to watching the end of man in the high castle, slightly odd in many ways but overall a good series.

Watched the 2nd episode last night. It didn’t disappoint.
I’ve read a lot of Stephen King but not this one so I genuinely have no clue what’s going to happen next! Great stuff! ?

I was getting this on Sky catchup. Got to Episode 6 and didn't auto-download the next episode. It's now gone to buying the box set for £19.99!

I skipped ahead so if someone has already mentioned Justified please forgive me. It's great and Walton Goggins is the best thing in it.

One of my top 10 TV shows ever. Has been mentioned before, but it deserves all the publicity it can get. It gets better and better as the seasons go on too. You are right, Walt Goggins is superb, as is Timothy Oliphant, and most of the rest of the main characters to be fair.

I have started Good Omens on BBC2. Ok so far, but then I loved the book.

As a firm fan of "Thick of it" and "VEEP", I will be tuning in to Avenue 5 shortly
