Currently burning through "Spring Tide" on SKY. A Scandi crime drama, it's not "Bron" but decent enough, and I quite like a character introduced around episode 6 who seems to become a main character for season 2.

Der Pass on Sky Atlantic. It's the second series, subtitled, not dubbed. It's solid stuff but for anyone new to it it would be best to watch S1 first of all.

Started season 1 but haven't gotten back to it. Having seen Bron, and The Tunnel, I liked the fact that they switched the characters around to make it a bit different. Whilst I loved The Tunnel, Bron is still the pinnacle for me though.

Finished Reacher on Friday. Load of complete nonsense and though not a fan of this sort of 'killing-fest' TV or film I quite enjoyed it. But it's not going to have me reaching for the books.

Finally finished Trigger Point

It was ok , pretty obvious who the culprit was

ITV dramas at times are just too fluffy and not gritty enough

Found Drop the Dead Donkey on E4. Absolutely awesome satirical stuff even 30 years on.
Also found Chelmsford 123 - that has some side-splitting lines in there - all the crew from Who Dares Wins involved - Jimmy Mulville, Rory McGrath, Phil Pope.

Inventing Anna on Netflix...that this is largely a true story (except for the bits that aren't) is what it makes it watchable...otherwise it would be too ludicrous to be in any way believable...you couldn't make it up.

I followed the reports in the press after she was rumbled and it was insane.

What she got up to is truly incredible and that so many believed her, and continued to believe her as she continued to fail to 'show the money'...insane indeed.

Just goes to show how gullible we can be when we choose to not look or choose to believe what we want to believe despite all the evidence to the contrary. Will probably finish off remaining eps of IA this evening.
