Holding (2022)
ITV drama - need to say more?
99/100 ITV dramas are dreadful. Occasionally they get lucky and do a good one. This is not one of those occasions. There is nothing good to report I'm afraid.
Fargo (2014)
Good until season 4
Really enjoyable series but then Season 4 comes along. Tries far too hard and ends up just being odd and actually quite boring. Struggled through half of it then turned off.
Roadkill (2020)
Woke BBC at its finest
The bbc used to be the gold standard of British dramas but sadly now it just churns out politically motivated nonsense. We currently live in a world sensitively balanced between left and right, this falls heavily on the left. From the first episode there is obvious jibes against Boris and Cummings and the government.
The characters are all out of place with reality. BAME and women shoe horned in.
Back to Netflix for some half decent drama.
Luther (2010)
Good until Season 5 happened
Great series but what the hell was that in Season 5? Absolute rubbish! Confused, rushed. Alice sub plot was pointless. Luther would have been struck off for going awol.
Strangers (2018)
Decent
Having just the dross of the Bodyguard I needed something else and 2 episodes I'm pleasantly surprised. ITV dramas are not renowned but this bucks the trend. Good suspense and new twists introduced so far.
Bodyguard (2018)
Disappointing
I thought the first 15 mins was poor. Using an old train and disused station smacked of low budget. As has been all of Twitter, the over use of women in senior roles got silly. Had to laugh when the bomb disposal woman arrived in a BMX helmet. Maybe it wasn't just they were women but poor actors?
As this was the main character, didnt feel like the bomb was going to blow up.
After that, there was some odd dialogue and a lot of staring from the lead and episode one just finished without much suspense.
Needs more in 2 to keep us entertained.
