Re: Years and Years
I have no idea what Emma Thompson is like in 'real life' but I do like her as an actress. She can cope with the silliest stuff - Nanny McFee, Harry Potter etc., but can also handle more serious roles - Shakespeare, Jane Austen etc.,Have to admit, though, I prefer her mum - Phillida Law! She is brilliant.

She's one of those actresses who's been in loads of TV stuff but you can't put a name to the face!
Well, I can now! Thanks!

I won't say any spoilers, in case anyone hasn't seen it yet, but I was gripped almost as much as I was during the first episode of Bodyguards.
It's semi-futuristic...just 5 or so years in the future, at the moment, anyway, so close enough to 'now' to be familiar, but a touch futuristic too.
I am deffo going to continue watching.
If you haven't seen it, and haven't recorded it, I would really recommend you watch it on catch-up, before you hear any spoilers.
NB. For the same reason, please don't give away on here what happens.
Thank you.
