Quite enjoying Paul Hollywood Eats Japan. Being married to a Japanese girl, and having spent a considerable amount of time there in the last 26 years, I'm always interested in these type of programmes, many plumb for the obvious weirdness, as does this one to a degree, but it's a decent watch, just wishing I was eating some of the same food.

Not a Ricky Gervais fan at all, but watched the first season of Afterlife last night based on the number on here talking about it. We did actually enjoy it, a character perhaps made for him. Very funny in parts, had me laughing and crying so hard when he was reporting on the lady making rice puddings and bread......

If you do watch it let me know what you think, I love that period of history an have an absolute fascination with the Medici, Florentine and Italian history in general.
My Mrs has shirked a little from starting 3 series of the Medicis - instead at the moment we are watching Normal People - which is very excellent and very intense indeed.

Just watched After Life series 2 episodes 1-3. Bit disappointed actually. Still good but not quite as funny as the first series I didn't think. Still, episodes 4-6 have better ratings so I'm sure it picks up again. Will watch the rest later this week.
It becomes very moving ... and very wryly funny - though not hilarious as I'm guessing it's not intended to be.

We're watching The Queen episode after episode each evening!

Well, I say "WE" - I'm catching up on much needed shut eye after the work I've been doing in lockdown ? and this helps !

I sure wish they had done more than one season of Firefly.... But a series I recently watched on Netflix, The Order was better than I thought. It was about to turn into a teenage angst show......but just barely stayed off my kill button. Werewolves, magic.....there's supposed to be another season coming which I will watch.

Watched the first 2 episodes of series 3 of Killing Eve last night. Bit far fetched to find Eve working as a cook in a Chinese restaurant now, but I guess credibility has never been this shows strong point. Great fun though.
