Thank you. One to avoid then.

The exception that proves the rule, I'd take Woody Allen playing Jimmy Bond over Lazenby.

So far I have recorded but not watched:

Downton Abbey
Call The Midwife
Luther
Prey
And Then There Were None
Not Another Happy Ending
And of course all Corrie episodes

Any I have missed or shouldn't bother watching?
Todays Sherlock was not bad.

I like Montalbano too.

Difficult decision this evening: War and Peace and Deutschland '83 both start at 9 pm. I think I'm going to save War and Peace for catch up.

Better to look for it on BBC1, which is the correct channel

Also discovered Detectorists on Netflix. Loved it! Only season 1 though and season 2 no longer available on iplayer. There is, however, a post season 2 Christmas special, which I think we will have to watch (and deal with the spoilers) as those don't necessarily get added to Netflix.
