Well, I enjoyed Angela Black but I don't think that they should do another series though as I don't really know what they can do from how the last episode ended last night. But time will tell I guess.

I'm currently watching Above Suspicion series 3 on Acorn TV as all four series are available on there whereas only the first two series are available on Amazon Prime. It's a shame that they only made four series of it before it was scrapped.

Dune - has anyone seen it yet?
Looked forward to this, enjoy Denis Villeneuve's other films and a slower paced blockbuster seemed up my street after tiring of the sensory annihilation of Marvel films. But never have I disagreed with the wide opinion of a film as much as this. I thought it was awful. In fairness, sci-fi/fantasy worlds are not my thing but even I appreciate epics like Lord of the Rings.
Characters were awful - one note, incredibly shallow and no depth to them at all. They all speak in militaristic hierarchical terms, nobody smiles and it takes itself so seriously. A film so utterly lacking in humanity it defies belief. CGI was naff and the widely praised cinematography left me wondering if I had seen a different film - all one tone, dull and unspectacular. Comparing it to the other desert films, there's none of the epic sense of scale and scope done so wonderfully in Lawrence of Arabia or Good, Bad & The Ugly. Hans Zimmer's music was just an intrusive and overbearing drone too. And top of that, it was unbelievably dull.
A huge disappointment - not objectively the worst film I've ever seen in the cinema, but certainly the most disappointing one in terms of expectations versus reality.

The Dark Knight Returns. Best comic adaptation. Donβt know why DC didnβt make a movie out of this instead of this mess called Batman v Superman
Best Batman theme too

It's episode 5 of Shetland tonight so we're getting closer to finding out who the killer is with the conclusion next week. When this series has finished I might start watching the earlier ones again on Amazon Prime.

It's episode 3 of The Act tonight on 5STAR. I'm not sure how many episodes there are of this series. But it's already been shown in America apparently.

That new drama which is available on BritBox from today looks good Crime. So I think I'll watch that once I've finished watching the final two episodes of Above Suspicion on Acorn TV.

I finished watching the boxed set of Above Suspicion last night and I enjoyed watching that again as it had been so long since it was on TV and I couldn't remember it all. Also, The Act is getting really good now and I'm wondering how this will end when it does.

Murderland on Acorn TV last night and then after that I watched episodes four and five of The Act on Starzplay TV as the whole boxed set is available on there to watch. I'll watch the rest later as there's only three more episodes to go I think.

Well, I finished watching The Act last night and it was good but I'm not going to give anything away just incase anyone else is watching it on 5Star or anything.

That Tenor Sea Cove question is like asking me Blacks a Fake or Christian Cullen. Though my answer would be: If we're talking able to come back and win an Inter Dominon, Blacks a Fake. If we're not, Christian.

I started watching High Town season one on Starzplay. It's another good detective drama. I've only watched the first two episodes though. And, tonight it's the final of this series of Shetland.

I'm having second thoughts about High Town as I started watching episode 3 last night and it wasn't that good so I only watched about half of it.

The final episode of series 6 of Shetland was good last night though and it'll be interesting to see what happens in the next series if we get one.

I started rewatching The Dublin Murders on Starzplay last night, it was good that was and it's a shame that they didn't make anymore than only one series.

I've got two more episodes of The Dublin Murders to watch and then I'll start watching something else.

Actually I've got another episode of this to watch as there's seven episodes and not six which I originally thought.

Voiceless on Acorn TV last night. It's a good foreign murder/detective drama. I've only watched the first two episodes so far but I'll watch some more later.

Given how dreadful Dune was, the next film I go to see has to be great.
So it makes me pleased to see that Spielberg's West Side Story is getting rave reviews. The film looks stunning based on the trailer.

I finished watching Voiceless on Acorn TV and I really enjoyed it. It's a shame that there's only that one series.
