I can thoroughly recommend Pachinko on Apple+ TV. It's in Japanese/Korean and in subtitles but don't let that put you off. Brilliant.
Re: Netflix / Prime recommendations
We’ve thoroughly enjoyed Wednesday on Netflix. Some big stars in it and it is certainly well made and entertaining

Just finished season 2 - finish not quite as tense as season 1 but it was another good effort - apparently seasons 3 and 4 have been filmed back to back so we may get both in 2023 which would be great in the opinion of this poster

Just starting A Spy among friends on ITVX (formerly ITV Hub), not on the main channels it is a six parter about Kim Philby and stars Guy Pierce which in itself means it is worth giving a go

Re: Netflix / Prime recommendations
Just finished A Spy Among Friends...very good indeed though it needs pretty serious concentration and focus as it hops around between different time periods and at times it's difficult to work out who is spying on who at any given time (the answer is usually that everyone is spying on everyone else!). Guy Pierce as Philby and Damien Lewis as Nicholas Elliott, his betrayed long-standing friend in the British secret service, are superb, as are the general production values. Really good if you enjoy more "serious" espionage books and films.
Intersting to see Adrian Edmondsen...one time Vivian in The Young Ones...playing Sir Roger Hollis, the head of MI5.

just finished season 3 of Jack Ryan, hubby's choice, usual killing and murdering but surprisingly for him, no gratuitous sex within. While it would never be my choice I watched and enjoyed the plot line, although it has a few, shall we say, things that happen that are not really credible.
Does anyone else enjoy watching normal programs where they feature places they been at some point and it reminds them of good times/holidays? We ended up discussing our trips to Rome, Moscow and Prague and restaurants and sights we enjoyed.

Bank of Dave Film comes to Netflix tomorrow.
Looking forward to it seeing as its about our own local business man David Fishwick.
Clearly I can't recommend based on seeing it but I suspect there will be local sights and references to our club within it.

Fauda (on netflix) is a fantastic series about an undercover Israeli strike team operating in the Palestinian territories. Surprisingly even-handed and superbly exciting.

Re: Netflix / Prime recommendations
I only watched a couple of episodes of Yellowstone but couldn’t get into it. However I thought 1883 was brilliant andbobinho wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 7:56 am1883 on paramount. The story of how the Dutton family ended up building a ranch in what i
became known as Yellowstone national park. Most excellent. The husband & wife team of Tim McGraw and Faith Hill are really good as is Sam Elliot.
That should bring you nicely onto Yellowstone, again on paramount.
Kevin Costner, Luke grimes and the awesomely wonderful Kelly Reilly in a modern day tale of ranching in the very beautiful Yellowstone national park. Reilly steals every scene she’s in as the mean and moody Beth Dutton. Cole Hauser is great too as Rip, the lead hand cowboy. Best thing I’ve seen in ages.
It didn’t matter that I hadn’t watched Yellowstone.
Currently really enjoying the next historical prequel which is 1923, also on Paramount, with Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren. Although only 4 episodes so far with more due in February.

The recruit on netflix in the usa. Not sure if it made it over there yet. But very good. Quite funny. A Jack Ryan type of thing but less serious.
Slow horses was fantastic. Oldman is without equal these days. He is going to retire from acting after Slow Horses ends. He will be missed

The first season has some of their highest viewing figures.

Paramount +
Tulsa - Sly Stallone plays a recently released from prison mafia goon who gets sent to Tulsa to set up a new mafia system.
Seems good so far, I'm a couple of episodes in.
Also, the Paramount app is very clunky and slow it seems, they need to fix that
