I found Lara’s thread very useful and it was very popular so, as Lara hasn’t started a new thread I have.

Any suggestions on what to watch tonight gransnetters?

Wild Rose
Amazon prime
Young girl from Glasgow just out of prison dreams of becoming a country music star and traveling to Nashville.

One for Gillybob if she is reading GN (I know she enjoys a bit of Country music) smile

Wild Rose is a great film starring the wonderful Jessie Buckley, I enjoyed it very much.

I've started watching "The Looming Tower" on Amazon Prime, it's very good, set in the late 1990s, tracking the operations of Osama Bin Laden and Al Queda that led to eventual atrocities of 9/11 set against a backdrop of infighting between the FBI and CIA. Also still dipping in and out of "This is Us", midway through series 3, have to dip out every so often when I feel I'm becoming over schmaltzed by it! Other than that I'm up to date with DNA now, and looking forward to seeing the latest instalments of that over on BBC4 at 9, if I can stay awake otherwise. I'll catch up with it on BBC I Player. Not sure about Strictly, I'm finding it quite boring! I'll probably give it a miss.

Oh yes The Looming Tower is a fabulous series. I love Jeff Daniels. There is also a documentary about the main character Jeff Daniels played, John O’Neill, it’s called ‘The Man Who Knew’. I think it is also on Amazon Prime.

I've been trying to find The West Wing on Channel 4 catch up but can't seem to find it?

The West Wing is definitely on All4, just do a search for it.

I hope there’ll be another series of DNA - I think it’s been really interesting TV

Watched the re runs of 'Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie' on catch up. Loved this first time around and it was great see Kathy Burke again in this role she was brilliant.

Thanks, Jane43, I’ll try that.
