After a bit of a slow start to the series, it got quite compelling. We're enjoying it too. Certainly an odd character.

Do unharmed women detective/police in the UK really go looking for dangerous murders in lonely/empty/deserted places alone...and also confront them? :eek:

Anyone seen the newest game show called 'Chase The Case'?

It has to be the worst show ever green-lighted! It's so convoluted that I think you have to be some kind of genius to follow it, and I don't qualify!

Five contestants each have a case containing amounts from zero to 5000 pounds. They answer general knowledge questions, and the first to three correct gets the chance to either peek in someone else's case or find out if it is valued higher or lower than their own. The second person then gets the option not chosen.

The final round consists of all players on a grid and a correct answer lets them swap cases or keep their own. They somehow get eliminated and the last person standing wins the value of their case.

Yeah, just what I thought too. It's not going to last.

The new Karl Pilkington show looks like it might be worth watching

Re: UK TV Programs
 

Quick question. What is everyone doing to watch UK TV? I was using UnoTelly but now I can't seem to get on to any of the UK TV services. My sub with them expires in a month so I'm looking around to see what I can use.
Any recommendations? I'm on Comcast in the US if that makes any difference.
Thanks

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but Netflix has a wonderful Australian series, "Rake," at this point 40 Episodes. Rake is Cleaver Greene, a brilliant but extremely flawed barrister who is a former druggie, addicted to gambling, and who is despised by most of the legal community of Sydney. It is subtle, sophisticated and very humorous (his roger gets him into unending trouble), combined with brilliance while advocating for his clients in the Courts. Some of the judges seem reminiscent of those encountered in that beloved series, "Rumpole of the Bailey." Of course, as a now retired attorney I am especially partial to the series, but I recommend giving it a try.

Thanks Expatdoc, I ended up with ExpressVPN after a bunch or researching. $100 for the year didn't seem to bad to keep her indoors happy with her weekly Corrie binges :D

Re: UK TV Programs
 

Corrie is on Britbox. Watch it within a day of the broadcast in the UK and it's only $6.99 a month (or $69.99 for a year in advance!).

Also comes with the knowledge that you are doing the right thing and not in breach of copyright laws.

"Derry Girls" is on Netflix, Channel 4 Comedy set in, you guessed it, Derry. It's like the Inbetweeners, but maybe better.
