Also watched "White House Farm" - it's on both Netflix and Disney+ - based on true events in 1980s Essex which I never heard of. Really great. Again, grim but Mark Addy and Freddie Fox are excellent. Stephen Graham is in it too with possibly the worst accent I've heard in a while.

Watched that too. Pretty good alright. Was that a scouse/Welsh accent combo? Weird.

Supposed to be Welsh but it was so fucking ropey that by the end of the second episode it had basically switched back and forth from that to his own Liverpudlian accent.

Watched "Des" about the UK serial killer Dennis Nilsen over the weekend. Very well made.

Some grim stuff, possibly not as dark as "White House Farm". David Tennant is incredible as Denis Nilsen even though every once in a while it looked like he was playing Jarvis Cocker. Daniel Mays is equally as good as the police inspector who has to deal with this avalanche of death.

I have never seem so much cigarette smoking in a TV show - now even "Mad Men".

Great short wee show. David Tennant even looks a fair bit like him.

Bit late to the party now, but I started Cobra Kai and love it. It is fairly well written and is very cheesy indeed. Bit of nostalgia too while also being relevent

5 minutes in and I can see the real reason Andy Tonic was so into Who Killed Sara?

Opening four minute scene sound-tracked by Ricky Martin's Livin' La Vida Loca and then, hop, straight into the men's showers!

I know who to go to for more recommendations anyway!

A new TV series began here tonight called The Newsreader. Basically a drama set in the 80s and showing the cut-throat and dog eat dog nature of the media. Very enjoyable first episode. Worth a look if and when it's shown over there.

Hitler's Circle of Evil. Enjoying it so far.

The Third Reich in colour is even better, amazing show.

I watched that 'Des' on Amazon after hearing the dogs barking here. Very good show, yer man did Nilsen to a T.

Ive been rewatching The Wire recently after maybe a gap of ten years. Pure joy:) Never copped that lad Wallace is a huge Hollywood star now. Season Two is still the most enjoyable for me, in the same way that Down and Out is my favourite Orwell. Is it the best? Maybe not, from the critics point of view, but a favourite nonetheless.

The second season is the one I always enjoy more than the time before every time I watch it.

First time I watched season 2 of The Wire I didn't like it at all. But when i rewatched it it clicked then. A great season. It's a great show to watch again after a few years.

Will get to that next so.

Watch Channel 4's new show "Deceit" over the weekend. Based on the Rachel Nickell murder case and the police's misguided undercover operation to catch the killer. Very well made, Niamh Algar and Eddie Marsan are both great in it. The whole thing is up on the All4 app.

I seem to be stuck in a loop of UK true crime docu-dramas of late but I have nothing else to watch. I have the Red Riding trilogy next.


Season two of "The Wire" is great - showed the criminal enterprises of Baltimore as a more rounded entity and what blue-collar people were going through as the American Dream died.

I need to do a re-watch of the whole thing. Haven't seen it in over a decade or more.

Des was very well done I have to say now. I'd recommend the book by Brian Masters too. Harrowing stuff
