We seem to have several threads about various shows watched and sometimes recommended with few comments. I wondered if it would be a good idea to have a general thread we can all post suggestions on. A bit like the Corrie one but wider variation.
For example, I have just binged watched two series on Netflix which I really enjoyed - 'Unseen' and 'Secrets we keep'. Thoroughly enjoyed both. If you are looking for a new series why not give at least one episode a go. So hoping for a second series for 'Secrets we keep'.

I don’t remember seeing Talking to a Stranger but I’ll watch it next week.

Such Brave Girls, anybody watched or watching this?
It is a dark comedy of sorts. It is one of the funniest things I have watched, but you have to be very broadminded to watch it. It is very rude, but compelling and so well written. The cast are superb, and I love the close relationship the sisters have. I totally loved it and am telling everyone about it, it deserves to be a success, as I believe it is anyway.

I have watched both series but did find series two a bit too dark ( and I do like dark comedies). My favourite comedy of recent years has been Channel 4’s The Change.

I am watching Fake on ITV just now and really enjoying it. A woman meets a man on a dating website and thinks he is the one. But is he too good to be true? I have one episode to go and can't wait to see how it all pans out.

‘pernille’ on Netflix. Danish I believe and very easy watching. Just about the life of one woman and her friends and children The language is a bit off though.

The Residence on Netflix is a whodunit with a difference. I am really enjoying it.

It's on the BBC I Player, but Cops is worth a look. It's one of those little remembered but good dramas from the nineties. The programme is about a disparate bunch of cops in a rough Northern town( a young liberal WPC, an old school hard man, a leching sergeant, a progressive superintendent and a young hothead) trying to deal with crime. The show can be very violent, full of bad language and sexual references, but probably quite true life of policing in 1998/99.
