I have been told about that before, but unfortunately I can´t get iPlayer here Sandra and its not on Netflix or Prime.

Line of Duty has been one of my favourite series........................ever.

Have you tried to use a VPN to get IPlayer...............don't be put off.....................you can do it.

 

[Webby1]

That's how you do it Jan.

Try one that gives a free trial as BBC gets wise to them .................how can there be 50 people in that house watching BBC on their internet connection

............and then you get blocked.

Pure VPN seems to work well for us......but I think you are Apple.

And who would have thought, after all the intricate episodes that H would turn out to be...............................

 

[Webby1]

Was it on here that someone mentioned Radio Garden as a place to listen to internet radio.................don't know if it works worldwide.

Also the actor Mark Strong was on Desert Island Discs this week (last week it was Sophia Loren.....now that's diversity)

He was talking about his first big role in Our Friends in the North with Daniel Craig,Gina McKee and Christopher Eccleston............great show and I'm looking forward to watching it again................don't know if it's on Netflix

The best of enemies .
Another true story.
Goes well with the BLM thread.

Good suggestion.Along the same lines we've just watched The Green Book.

Another true story and amazing/frightening to think that it happened within my lifetime.

 

[Webby1]

The Syndicate series 4 is on BBC I player at the moment................it encouraged us to go back and watch the first 3 series.

Each series about different groups of friends and how they cope with a big lottery win......but might not be on Netflix.

 

[Webby1]

It still surprises me that I can watch a film where I know exactly what is going to happen.............where I can repeat some lines word for word.

BUT still love to watch it all again

 

[Webby1]

Definitely I would recommend Bad Education............my sister in law alays has the 20 minute rule to give time to get used to the characters and the flow of the programme.

Looking forward to the final episode of Line of Duty tonight..................I reckon it will break a few records.

Of course most of us already know that H is :wav: the blue one............or is it the yellow one

 

[Webby1]

I think having black, gay, disabled people reflects real life but I hate to have them just as a token so they are all PC I think that is insulting to them and to us.

And the question is who decides.................what's a reflection and what is a token.

 

[Webby1]

Don't kn

We started a new series for us last night: Stranger Things. Its a sci fi series and I was dubious at the start (bunch of kids; one goes missing) however the first episode improved so we'll give it another try.

Just started on Stranger Things..................also a bit dubious for similar ET like reasons.
Is the plot going to expand or just go into endless fantasies and what ifs ................a bit like Lost.

But we are warming to it and we'll get to Kate Bush soon

 

[Webby1]

We started Better Call Saul last night. Happy with the first episode so we'll carry on with it.

Still watching Stranger Things too which is quite gripping and right on the edge of being scary without being scary IYKWIM... we don't like horror stuff!

Loved all of Better call Saul and as good as Breaking Bad
Now up to series 3 of Stranger Things...................both excellent choices

 

[Webby1]

It may have been mentioned in the previous 116 pages but if you liked Breaking Bad then Better call Saul is a great spin off.
After Downton I went back and watched the boxset of Upstairs Downstairs.................I think I really wanted to have been born Upstairs
Also just finished Stranger Things.............a bit gruesome in parts but an interesting storyline.

 

[Webby1]

A very moving film sadly based on true events.
Hard to believe Steve Coogan played so many comedy characters in the past.
Of course Alan Partridge, but I particularly liked when he played Paul and Pauline Calf in Three Fights Two Weddings and a Funeral

 

[Webby1]

We finished series 2 of Stranger things last night. It really is a good programme albeit a little scary! Looking forward to starting series 3 now.

Scary !!!! wait till Series 3

 

[Webby1]

Whatever year it is, judging by episode 11 it’s not worth watching, another series gone off the rails, completely.

Perhaps it's to illustrate how Saul has now completely "gone off the rails" himself.
(Watson I'll make a detective of you yet )
Only a couple of episodes left anyway

 

[Webby1]

Just finished the last episode of "Stranger Things" last night.
You'll enjoy it Graham @GMJ and I'll give it Elleven out of ten.

Apparently there is to be a Series 5..........when will they stop Running up that Hill
I'd probably give Kate Bush one as well.

 

[Webby1]

Yes to Picard.Our recent list has been
Outlaws
Two Doors down
Sherwood
Lazarus Project
Undeclared War
The Rook
But I do like longer series like Stranger Things or Saul.
If you get to like it there are someimes 6 series to watch.
Unlike a single film that can sometimes be too long(yes !!) episodes are shorter and become old friends to dip into like Coronation Street.
Sometimes the treat of a double bill and still plenty more left.

 

[Webby1]

Pretty sure I tried Stranger things. Looked lame to me. Isnt it full of irritating little kids designed for irritating little kids or am I thinking of something else?

Lazarus Project and the Rook sound intriguing.

It's also suitable for irritating adults
No likee.........no watchee..................everyone happee

 

[Webby1]

I looked up the Series of Euphoria you suggested Barry and I read this
Rue is a 17 year old drug addict, with mental health issues and her life hasn't been going according to plan. After being released from rehab, Rue goes back home, and befriends a trans woman named Jules, who's about to change everything about her world.
That does sound really dark.....................is the same series. But you say it won some awards

Now I agree Stranger Things is a bit ET boys on bikes, but it's lighthearted by comparison.

 

[Webby1]

Funnily enough I have seen before the problems you have had @JanHank with watching certain programmes. I had considered sending a PM to refer you to various sites where I download stuff,like the 123 mentioned.
But reading Barrys post he........... is right. It is a minefield if you are not computer confident.
It took me a while to realise that all those Russian girls didn't really want to meet me

 

[Webby1]

Now @raynipper you sometimes suggest that posters search on google for their solution(quite rightly)
So Sherlock did a search (oh no not him again)and found this streaming location where you should be able to watch if not download.
