New series to watch please? (The old thread has gone)

Correction:
The Mafia only kill in Summer

we just binged The Madness and are currently watching Borgen a political series set in Denmark,we,re on series 3 and its getting better with each series.even the dubbing is worthy of a mention,strangely the voices suit the faces...lol

Oh yes, we watched Borgen. Will take a look at The Madness.
Thank you.

Strike is returning to BBC1 next Monday- love it.

If you want quirky, go for the White Lotus on Sky/NOW. One of the best black comedies I’ve ever watched and with the added bonus of Jennifer Coolidge.

I love State of Happiness- the third series has just finished and now I'm going back to watch it from the beginning again!

And, of course, there's Wolf Hall...

Yes. Wolf Hall was good - this second series seems a bit less so though. It feels like there is a lot of padding going on abd then a huge leap forward. I don't know if others feel this too?

Unfortunately we don't have Sky. I have looked for White Lotus elsewhere but can't find it.

I will look up the other suggestions.
Thank you.

All on Netflix.
Fat friends
Fool me once
Cold call
Anatomy of scandle
Killing Eve
A confession
Derry Girls.
And the best series ever produced ( drum roll) Schitts Creek. 😂

Oh Shitts Creek! 🥰 yes!

Quirky (and weird and a bit sinister): an Icelandic series called Katla on Netflix, set in a highly volcanic part of the country. I'll spare you any spoilers. I am only part way through it but am finding it quite compelling.

Oh Shitts Creek! 🥰 yes!

Just for you, the beautiful David 😍

Schitt's Creek was just perfection...

Following this as I’m looking for something. Prefer British programmes and I like crime and detective dramas.

We enjoyed The Sandhamm Murders set in Sweden near Stockholm on archipelago. Sorry I cant recall if it was Netflix or amazon or some other platform.

Thanks again.
Appreciate the suggestions.

I loved Borgen watched it years ago though. Amongst foreign series Spiral was excellent. Racking my brains to think of other stand out series, Anatomy of a Scandal, Keeping Faith, Mare of Eastown, always The Unforgotten one of the very best, also Happy Valley. Lately White Lotus. On Apple other half loves Slow Horses, I love Bad Sisters. I've just watched La Palma on Netflix the other week, a Norwegian production, riveting put you off going to the Canaries though. Also enjoyed Black Doves. On Prime a while back Daisy Jones and the Six which was loosely based on Fleetwood Mack. Quirky funny, I'd recommend Colin from Accounts, I like Aussie humour and it's hard not to fall in love with Colin.

I'm bound to have forgotten some there are so many different services these days, still spend a lot of time scratching around to find something worthwhile.

Try The Chelsea Detective.
It's on U&DRAMA.

Each story is wrapped up in two episodes but the private lives of the detectives is an ongoing story told throughout the series.
The main detective lives on an old houseboat in Chelsea Harbour - hence the title.
There are also some nice shots of London.

Another one for quirky humour, This Country, I loved it, but probably fair to say a bit Marmite.

Black Doves was good but a bit sugary for me. Especially at the end.
It was "tied up" in a terribly easy way.
It out to have ended very darkly I think.

Has anyone else watched Squid Game season 2?
I was very disappointed with the ending. It felt like a mini-break!
And apparently season 3 isn't yet scheduled.

North Shore on ITVx was good.

Thank you.
Just started One Hundred Years of Solitude - but I don't always fancy subtitles so will try one of the other suggestions "in parallel".

I absolutely loved this and so did my son, we have the same sense of humour. There is another series with Daisy May Cooper and Lenny Rush: Am I Being Unreasonable? which is very good.
