Russian Doll has probably the best soundtrack of any sit com ever

Harry Nielson's Gotta Get up is the recurring (I got you Babe) type earworm that I'll probably be singing everywhere I go now...

Well that was a magnificent programme with probably the best in series music of all time ending with Alone Again Or

I'm already missing it which happens almost never

Apologies for dragging this back from page 6 but is Killing Eve any good and worth a Catch up on I player box set?

That was brilliant.

Love his take on how people love to be offended on other people's behalf, which he bought a little of it into this series.

I thought the Bodyguard had too many unnecessary twists. I mean big "twist" Bombmaker 1) is unlikley to want to blow up the kids of the officer who stopped her being shot and 2) is supposedly the chief maker and not the person who blows herself up
