Surely giving a brief synopsis wouldn't kill anyone? this is forum after all.

I’m on an iPad, Bruce, and couldn’t be arsed! Besides, I wasn’t expecting anyone from the other side of the world to be interested.

I could look it up but then what is the point of belonging to a forum? Surely the idea is to be able to discuss things.

Art I read all the previews and it sounded violent and grim.
After suffering Doctor Foster and Bancroft, excellent as they were, I need light and uplifting!!

Excellent, Thank you.

You see? it wasn't that difficult was it?

Re: McMafia

I did look in but it didn't look like something I'd like really, and I'm busy bingeing on extant and Mrs maisel at the moment. Although Mrs maisel is great she's making my ears bleed with the swearing !

I think he could do it, actually. He has surprised me.

I do agree with Dongle though, and the current story has lost me. Won't bother with any more.

It seems to be the norm with modern directors to not tell us the story. I suppose they like to think that it creates interest and gets people talking about the programme which I suppose is true but I would prefer to understand it and enjoy it.

Anything with Russian names is hard going whether it's a book or a film, add the double-crossing and I'm lost.

It's a shame because James Norton is a great actor and has real screen presence but I won't be watching any more of it. I have enough trouble keeping up with Midsommer Murders.
