The War Below on Netflix.

Set during WW1 and based on the true story of the British missions to tunnel under 'no mans land' and plant explosives beneath the German troops.

On ITVX there is a new series streaming - Under the Banner of Heaven. It stars Andrew Garfield and Gil Bermingham as 2 detectives investigating the brutal murder of a young mother and her infant daughter with connections to Mormonism. It is based on a true story. I found it shocking. Garfield was nominated for an Emmy and a Golden Globe award for his portrayal of a detective of the Mormon faith.

I'd hardly seen any Only fools and horses until I started going on the supporters coaches to games years ago - I think I've seen them all multiple times now :D

Breaking Bad - unmissable TV imho, one of the best things I've ever seen
Better call Saul too........just a continuation really, but just as good.

It’s not on Netflix or Prime so sorry for not being helpful, but last night I watched a French film called Anatomy of a Fall, which was absolutely superb.
I liked it too, but found it a bit long winded at the theatre. 2hrs 45 mins i think.

Kin is decent for an incredibly low budget ( 1st season ) bbc effort .
“Tell them you love me “on Sky docu is a quite disturbing watch, especially in the last quarter when you suddenly realise what has been happening.
The Americans -6? I think seasons is a good watch , sure it’s complete hokum but follows a nice “ real events “ historical flow

Off topic from Netflix/Prime title but tv show related. I recently signed up to Britbox and watched all 6 series of "line of duty". I though series 1-4 were brilliant but series 5 and 6 were merely more of the same. I'm curious to know what you folks you saw the show thought of it.

Just finished Love/Hate on the Itv app.

Very good. Some very good characters in it.

Storylines held up through to the end of series 5, which not many do.

it has had a lot of press hype, but Shogun on Disney is truly excellent - Cosmo Jarvis sounds like Richard Burton

Just binge watched The Kominsky Method starring Alan Arkin & Michael Douglas....funny...sad... thought provoking and brilliantly acted,recommended for the 60/70 year olds on here, the prostate examination scene with Douglas & Danny Devito as his doctor was comedy gold.

I have done the first couple of episodes of Ripley, it is a bit of a grind, but I keep believing that it is going to be worth it

Homicide New York on Netflix is pretty good. Each story short punchy and to the point.Talking to the main players, who are willing to admit mistakes etc.

Likewise. Bit of a slow burner, but agree it’ll get better.

Just watched the first 3 episodes of Fallout on Prime. Very good show so far although not surprising I love it as I love the Playstation game.

Not just a show for gamers, the Mrs is also enjoying it so far.
