If I had to pick just one, it would be Game of Thrones. We've just started rewatching it. Everytime - it just takes my breath away.

Others that have been up there for me over the last 10 years

Sherlock
Peaky Blinders
Ripper Street
Endeavour
Call The Midwife
Britannia
The Vikings
This is England
The A Word
Chernobyl
A Very English Scandal
Broken
Time
Frankenstein Chronicals
Downton Abbey

Currently very much enjoying season 4 of Fargo.

Perhaps I should give Fargo Season 4 another chance then. I gave up after episode 3.

But definitely the Scandinavian ones, especially The Bridge.

With your prompting: Line Of Duty, Killing Eve, Spiral.

Line of Duty and A Very English Scandal. I never liked Hugh Grant as an actor until he played Jeremy Thorpe. Superb.

allium Sat 31-Jul-21 03:58:04

Line of Duty and The Night Manager.

denbylover Sat 31-Jul-21 02:58:04

BridgetPark Fri 30-Jul-21 20:31:09

Everwood.., I loved that programme so much. Me and DD used to watch it together, lovely gentle viewing with some wonderful storylines.

Gosh. Glad I didn’t give too many spoilers away then. Please let me know what you think of series 8. GOT’s had been the best thing I’ve ever seen and I raved about it and recommended it to everyone for years. I’d love to know what you think of the ending.

Artaylor. Were you not disappointed by the end of GOT’s. I still haven’t got over it and haven’t rewatched the whole series, something I was planning to do. I usually watched each series several times but haven’t rewatched series 8.

Hi MayBee I havent seen Series 8 of GoT's yet. We've just got round to rewatching the whole Series from the beginning with the intention of including Series 8 in our watch. I'm aware that many many peeps were disappointed in No. 8 and have a fair idea how it pans out. It's probably to do with the lack of a George RR Martin written ending......am prepared for it, though looking forward to reriding the roller coaster of a journey on the way to it.
Looking forward to the 2022 (I think) release of the House of The Dragon prequel series. Paddy Considine is in it - he's terrific.

I used to like that prison programme it was called Bad Girls.
Also Unforgotten, Supervet (with Noel Fitzpatrick) and you
can't beat a bit of Casualty.

Noel Fitzpatrick was on Desert Island discs today .
