Disappointed with Rebus so far. There is no wry humour, no warmth in the characters. Quite a number of things have been changed from the books and they are jarring. It is also pretty miserable. Rebus was never laugh a minute but the books are not this grim.

I'm on ep 2 so far, not sure I am going to see it through.

I liked it - massively better than previous 2 versions

Haven't read the books or watched any others so we quite enjoyed it.

Finished The Gathering on Channel 4. Not bad. Not sure why every gritty drama it seems is based in Liverpool...not doing much for the tourist trade!!

I spent a few nights watching an old serial on I player

Hard Sun

long enough between watches to have forgotten most it and a good watch.

“We Own This City” on Sky Atlantic, true life drama police /drugs/guns by David Simon creator of The Wire, also set in Baltimore - a lot of similarities. 3 eps in and very good so far.
