TV Series - What Are You Watching?

Guilty pleasure time, Sort Your Life Out. The de-cluttering show with Stacey Solomon. Oddly addictive and fascinating. How can people live knee deep in stuff? Why does anyone need 27 frying pans or 23 coats (the woman last night really did have 23 coats incidentally)

Star of the show is the joiner. I know there will be a team behind the scenes but I can't see them so he gets the love. So clever in his ingenious ways of storing things and making life easier with little ideas. Oh to have him for 2 days in my house 😄
Sounds like we need her to come round ours. We never throw anything away. I probably have about 10 coats and jackets myself. My wife has filled the entire floor of our storage bed with shoes.
 
I'm watching Elementary (a little behind the times I know).
Very enjoyable watch and a good variation on the usual Holmes/Watson storylines and imagery.
 
Just invested in Disney Plus and so far:-
The Bear 4 episodes so far excellent and compelling
The Mandalorian - 1 episode in and interesting, not our usual fodder and am unsure if we will do all 3 series
Only Murders in the Building- 3 episodes in and watchable though a bit hammy
Welcome to Wrexham- couple of episodes in and though ok, I’m beginning to tire of this format after Sunderland til I die and Mission to Burnley though I enjoyed them
Anything else I’m missing out on?

I find these so sanitised and stage-managed.

By contrast, here's some proper fly on the wall stuff (warning - do not watch if offended by the odd swear word!)

 
They are based on the books not the Game, books have a political theme running through them and are not bad.

I was aware of that though I understand that the first 2 Witcher games I played on previous generations had more of a connection to the books than the third one which really popularised it.

Not really, the 3rd maybe has some crossover. The 3rd game is amazing, if only the series was as good as that game. The books suffer a bit from translation as well , polish as the written language. I have yet to watch season 3

The third game is a classic and one I am going to play through again over winter.
 
The Continental, the John Wick prequel on Amazon. 3 episodes, 90 minutes each, released each Friday. First one was pretty solid, they have clearly spent some money on it.

It isn't an absolute origin story, the hotel is already up and running, clientele is as per the films already. Worth a watching you like the JW films..

Great soundtrack too
 
Sex Education season 4…….. just stop it🤬

Seems like they’ve forgotten what happened in the first three seasons and put everyone back to their original issues. Turned it off after 20 mins, just rubbish.
 
New series of Bake Off last night. Lovely warm tv, good start to the series. Straight up cakes, no nonsense stuff.

The contestants came across very well. No self obsessed, look at me contestants this year, plenty of smiles.

One thing I'd change, if you are going to use fondant you have to make it yourself. Too many copped out last night by using bought in fondant and then decorating it. Much easier than piping, other forms of decoration.
