Just finished Night Stalker: The Hunt For A Serial Killer.

Documentary about the hunt for the Night Stalker in California in the 80s.

I really enjoyed it, but not for those of a nervous disposition.

Not “drama” I know....but think the Netflix ‘Pele’ film/documentary comes out next week, which I’m hoping is a good watch.

Have started watching the NFL Philadelphia Eagles ‘All or Nothing’ sports doc series - but only 2 episodes in. What did you think faaip - I’m guessing you may have watched it 🤔 ?

I don't watch the All or Nothing series at all I'm afraid. The Eagles are a dumpster fire right now though

Faaip was right... I did enjoy it, and looking forward to series 2..
Watched Alice in Borderland and thoroughly enjoyed it. Really clever and looking forward to the second season.

Another excellent Asian show is Crash Landing On You. It’s a South Korean series which tells a smart story linking life in North and South Korea. Builds characters really well and was a big hit with the women in our house. Critically acclaimed just about everywhere and really enjoyable. Available on Netflix.

Just watched Grace. Really enjoyed it , apart from the constant ad breaks that is . It may have taken Peter James a few years to get it made but he maintained said he wouldn't make until he was completely happy with everything, it was however definitely worth the wait . I remembered the jist of the story although it a few years since I read that particular book . John Simm was excellent in the lead role and he was well supported. Looking forward to seeing the next story
