Offspring, on Netflix would be my no.1 recommendation for people I don’t know. I just feel everyone would enjoy the series.

Thanks for the suggestions. Netflix is the only paid-for streaming channel we have so apart from the free ones (which really means i-player as I'm not sitting through endless adverts) that's the only option.

A Place to Call Home is brilliant and very watchable. The first few series are on Amazon and then you can watch it on UKTV .. although the adverts on that channel will drive you mad as they crop up about every 5 mins.

Not sure if it's Netflix - but it us on UKTV though so free.
"A Place to Call Home" Australian drama.
I did watch some on Netflix or Amazon can't remember which.

Here's the info:

I loved "I Used to be Famous" - the title was off-putting but it's actually a beautiful heart warming film. Would happily watch again.

I have just finished watching The Fall I can't believe that I had missed it previously when looking for a good series so many twists and turns.It is certainly not light hearted but very good.

I have come to the end of my Netflix list so need some tv series ideas to watch with DH. Recently we've been watching a lot of heavy crime drama (The Missing, Line of Duty etc) so would like something lighter for a change but not necessarily comedy. Any ideas? Otherwise it's back to the West Wing for the umpteenth time smile
