Cold Feet has returned for a new series with the original cast (minus Helen Baxendale who died in the last series). If you liked the original, you'll enjoy the continuing story 13 years on.

Our Girl is starting series 2 this week but Lacey Turner is no longer in it. Instead, the lead is played by Michelle Keegan. All looks promising though.

Was quite shocked to read that!

I hope that Netflix does a deal to extend it past the one season they currently have.

I think they are planning on either selling it to ITV, or hope that public outcry causes the beeb to open its cheque book.

It's a baking reality show. The BBC could make the same programme with a different name now that they know how much people want to see other people cook and taste food on primetime television. Or are the presenters the significant part?

The presenters and the judges pretty much make the show. One would assume (as the show is well established), they are bound to the production under a pretty rigid contract.

It's moving to channel 4, who were prepared to pay a lot more money.

"One of Us'
Well it threw it all away in the last episode. Poorly written, or maybe over written. Given conclusions there was way to little foreshadowing, and way too much melodrama. It thinks it is a much grander and cleverer beast than it actually was. Enjoyed the first three episodes, but the concluding episode just unraveled all before it.

"Marcella" - it's on Netflix but British with Anna Friel. Brilliant story line so far.

Yeah, that was a good little show that.

Cold Feet, still not seen it, but have the first couple of episodes lined up. How's that reboot?

Mount Pleasant, has also come back, well a few episodes in on the 6th series.

I'm intrigued by the reboot to Red Dwarf.

Channel 4 appear to have paid a lot of money for a tent so far.

BBC America, is pushing Dirk Gently. Looks okay...starts middle of next month.

Just saw the first episode of the reboot to Red Dwarf. It was a bit of an abortion. Just no.
