After me randomly asking Alexa to play Bix Beiderbecke, we've got hold of the series and started watching it last night. They don't make them like this anymore sadly. And Barbara Flynn in her prime. 
I thought the ending of Roadkill was damp squib. Everything built up nicely and then meh.
Barbarians on Netflix. I love this type of book so am trying the show. In German with subtitles. No expense spared so far, looks good.
Lincoln Rhyme on Atlantic. A bit formulaic, main lead is having to compete with Denzel Washington from the film and no one can do that. May stick with it, may bin it after 5-6 episodes depending on how it develops.

We just finished the Sister, which i thought was very good. Set up well for season 2.
We have decided to intro the kids to Friday Night Dinner, so we will go back to S1 E1 of that! Nice silly comedy you can switch off to!

Bob Mortimer on Would I Lie to You. Funniest TV I've seen in a long time.

End of the Fxxxing World season 2. Binge watched all eight episodes last night - they're only about 20 mins a pop. Enjoyed it as much as season 1, albeit a slightly different take.

I hope you realised that the first series isn’t actually the first content for this show? There were a couple of feature length shows before they officially started series one so just wanted to make sure you’ve seen those or you’re missing a lot.
Watching the re-runs (again) of UFO.

Just finished The Queens Gambit on Netflix. About 7 hours worth. If chess and the 1960s is something you relate to it's a compelling little drama. Enjoyed it. 8/10.

Just started "Swedish Dicks" on Netflix........ no......stop it....... it's not what you think. Fairly amusing caper about two Swedish wannabee private detectives in Los Angeles, starring Peter Stormare, and weirdly, Keanu Reeves.

Just awesome Gerry Anderson - theme music is epic. Never realised how bad a man manager Ed Straker is though until I re-watched it. The Aliens go from being desperate to save themselves to trying to destroy the Earth by the end of the series. But truly brilliant TV if almost 50 years old now.
Indeed. Gabrielle Drake as Lt Ellis was definitely taking advantage of Sylvia Andersons costumes to show off her figure. Quite nice back in the day.

And Benedict Cumberbatch's mum is in the first episode on the flight across the Atlantic and then turns up in the final few episodes as Straker's No.2 when Alec Freeman could not make the re-scheduled filming. Not that I have read up a ton on this series at all …..

I'm just catching up on the old TV Series 15 Storeys High on YouTube. Brilliantly surreal with vignettes of different peoples lives in a tower block in London. The radio series it was based on is equally funny but different.
That'll be Wanda Ventham as Col Virginia Lake. Didn't she get it on with Paul Freeman and Alec Freeman
