Just watched the new Bergerac, on U tv. That was OK.

McDonald and Dodds and The Chelsea Detective are fabulous.

We've just watched both series of The Cafe on iPlayer. Touching, funny and gentle.

Talking of Shakespeare I loved Upstart Crow.
Am enjoying this third series of The White Lotus and loved Stranger Things and Dark, both on Netflix.

Oooooh I loved Dark

I really like The Chelsea Detective on Drama. Shakespeare and Hathaway is fun and I like Father Brown.

Oh, I thought this was the thread started by someone who wanted non-demanding easy viewing!.

I love a program on BBC IPlayer.
Its about a private detective agency that's located in the mean streets of Stratford-upon-Avon
It's a brilliant watch, funny & witty, with lots of clever Shakespearean references too.
The series is listed as 'Shakespeare & Hathaway. Give it a whirl, you won't be disappointed. 🙃

I love that. It used to be on in the Afternoons.

McDonald and Dodds is good, easy viewing too with Jason Watkins and Tala Gouveia

I loved Upstart Crow, too. Apart from Call the Midwife, which finishes tonight, I don’t think I’m following any series at the moment.

We just bought Foyles War on EBay, a programme we both thoroughly enjoy, we’ve never seen all of the series and they’re not all on TV unless you want to pay for Acorn TV to get those missing from ITVx. We will sell them on once we’ve finished.

I love a series tat has a powerful female character, or women in general who dress really nice. I look forward to seeing the outfits…lol!

I love Severance on Apple TV at the moment. We‘re in season 2 and things are getting stranger.

I’ve been thinking about starting that one. Maybe I will!

What series are you currently watching, or what are some of your favorites? I recently watched What If on Netflix, as well as Anatomy of a Scandal. I enjoyed both, but I love the evil character that Renee Zellweger plays on what if. I heard a second season may be in the works.
