If anyone doesn't mind sub titles and French the 'Spiral 'series is brilliant. No: 1-8.
Also many of the Nordic noir series are also brilliantly executed.

Thats mostly what we watch these days, the Finnish series are particularly good. There is a Turkish series starts tonight, 50M2 will report back on it.

"The Pembrokeshire Murders",

A 3 part Drama/Crime TV Documentary with the excellent Luke Evans starring. Based on True Events. A really good watch. 9/10.

A good film with Tom Hanks is "News of the World".
"Honest Thief" has also been recommended but not watched it yet.
The Valhalla Murders (icelandic with subtitles) is also good.
I don't like long series that go on for season after season - but I am looking forward to resuming The Handmaid's Tale.

Valhalla was good, I am fond of Icelandic progs, Trapped being my fave, must have watched it 3 times now.

Watched a couple of episodes of "Industry" about young recruits into the British Banking trade. Male full frontal nudity (well fit and well endowed young guys !) quite a lot of hot porn. Apart from that, the series was rather boring and going nowhere so gave it a miss !

"Code 404". A British Comedy/Crime Drama. Absolutely loved it, both me and my wife (which is usual to say the least). Only prob for me was there only 6 episodes in the First Series, and they were only 25/28mins long. Great Stuff. 9/10.

Just downloaded and watched the first episode.
Good family fun & (mostly) free of eff words & the endless shoot outs.
Very watchable.

Death in Paradise is quite fun.....into its 10th season now.

A detective inspector is transferred from London to the island of Saint-Marie in the Caribbean.

I'm surprised at that! Isn't it a post-colonialist racist trope to suggest that the local police are incapable of solving local crime and have to draft in a white Londoner?????

We watched The Serpent (6 or 8 episodes, I think) Based on true events about a man murdering and stealing from back-packers in the Far East. Worth a watch, I think.

Yes, we have seen a couple of these, the constant time changes are a bit of a bore though. ( 4 months earlier, 8 months later etc)

Sorry I.A. - I'm getting used to this new format. Hilary.

I was referring to the time changes in the Serpent Hils.

Its a sin.
Watched the first 2 episodes, brings back so many memories from my late teens early 20s life.

Just finished Raised by wolves, we enjoyed it until the final episode which we found pretty unsatisfactory, ruined by laying up for a second series, I probably wont bother, what a shame.

Watched The Dig (Netflix) about the find of Anglo Saxon treasures in Sutton Hoo. Starring Ralph Fiennes. A slow burner but a good watch with a nice gin and tonic.
