Luther: The Fallen Sun
(2023)

1/10 are these people serious? It's a thriller, perhaps they don't know the genre
This is not a blockbuster Hollywood movie!!!

Idris Elba and the very believable villain had me hooked from the first 5 minutes; relentless action and unexpected twists, edge of the seat stuff.

Post Lock down, Netflix has struggled to come up with engaging and exciting thrillers in my opinion, thus if you were to judge based on comparables on Netflix this certainly has top marks.

Secondly, If you have paid any interest to 'British TV thrillers' - not the high budget James Bond movies - or followed any British TV series then you might be in a better place to judge.

Yes, there are flaws in the prison break but overall a splendid performance and effort for a low budget thriller.

10/10 for me.

Irmandade
(2019)

Surprisingly good
It's been on netflix for a while, decided to give one episode a go as content on netflix is pretty dire atm; I am now totally hooked.

Not the storyline I was expecting, strongly acted, fast paced then slow them fast paced, every episode leaves you wanting to jump in to the next, the way a series should be.

My only issue was the subtitles but once you get used to it, you forget the language they are speaking, the characters are very believable and loved the fact it wasn't all set within the confines of a prison, which is what I expected.

I would definitely recommend if you are looking for something to watch.

The Lateish Show with Mo Gilligan
(2019)

Great show
I understand this show might not be for everyone but for the younger demographic and the open minded looking for a light hearted comedy where anything goes and willing to look beyond the obvious flaws of free style comedy, you are in for a treat.

Jeremy Vine
(2018)

Best morning show on TV
Jeremy Vine show is uniquely one of the only TV shows where viewers are allowed to phone in, which in my opinion makes it a true talk slow.

Guests on the show usually have a differing view which is a necessary ingredient needed for a good debate.

Can't ask for more.
