Maybe in Tashy's old work area. Or in certain US states. I don't believe it was a term used 'back home' and Dad came from a mining area. More likely used re (the effects of) especially hot sauce!

Watched all 3 episodes of A Very British Scandal last night. Enjoyed it, despite both main characters being thoroughly unlikeable.

Watched episodes 3 & 4 last night. Excellent. Liked the odd bits of humour on the way.

Yes, it seems to take parts of that quirky and dark Oz humour at times.

Binged Cobra Kai over past 2 days. Love the show. It has its cheese and stupidity but somehow just works for what it is!

Just watched the Dr Who New Year episode, very poor, just everyone running around with very little story line. Think it needs a rest for a while and then come back with a whole new cast.

Watched the first episode last night, very good start.

Final 2 tonight for us.
Have been very disappointed with the whole Jodi Whitaker incarnation and last night as what should have been a seasonal highlight was the same thing happening over and over. Poorly written, poor storyline and poor performances. I think it's run its time

Feel she was very, very badly let down by the writing. Still a better Doctor than Capaldi IMO.
He did set a low bar. Almost looked like he didn't want to be there from his first appearance

Agree with this 100%. She's an excellent actor and it should have been so much better. The initial reveal of her in an edgy, grungy outfit was excellent. It went downhill rapidly as soon as they publicised her clown's outfit. Should have kept her dark and dangerous; and kept the stories to more traditional fare.
Really wanted him to play the doctor in full Malcolm Tucker mode
I liked Capaldi in his final season, but I think that was more to do with the companion that season, Bill. Thought they were a good partnership.

Four Lives on BBC1. True story and a tough watch - the actions of the police simply beggar belief...
Toast in Tisle Town, first episode was a bit flat imo, but love the character, bet Orikoru will be watching

Started hidden last night and nearly halgf way through season 1. Very good and will bionge the 3 seasons over coming days. It is on iplayer and set in North Wales from the same team that did Hinterland - that was also good but i think Hidden is better, with more personality in the main characters
