Anyone watching Mix Tape on BBC2? (all episodes available on iPlayer)

It's a romantic drama - I'm really enjoying it.

It gets better as it goes along. I almost switched off but am glad I didn't. Looking forward to the next two episodes.

With such glowing reviews, perhaps I will find it on I-player sometime in the future and give it another go. Perhaps I am just not in the right mood at the moment.

I thought it was lovely.

I’ve just finished watching it and did enjoy it. It so took me back to being young again and then my children’s teenage years with the mix tapes. Thanks for the recommendation; it isn’t something that I would usually watch but I’m glad I did.

I enjoyed the first 2 episodes. The only thing that irked me was that the young Alison had dark, curly hair, whereas the adult Alison had straight blonde hair!

I just accept that people straighten and dye their hair - and that she was hiding the fact that she had gone grey by going blonde! grin

True, but the adult Alison had blue eyes too! Still really enjoyed it.

Ooh I hadn’t noticed that but will look out for it. The “young Alison” actress is very pretty.

Thoroughly enjoying it.
