I get that there's a potential retention / stopping people cancelling element to this from a business point of view BTW, it just pisses me off.
This really gets my goat. I've paid the subscription (and therefore for the content), sure if I want to binge something I should be able to binge it?

I thought you meant because there were a lot of downbeat stories… I liked it because like you said, it was positivity in adversity. You have a clear idea of where Harris is coming from (and I don’t mean Wilmslow) but he gets the subjects to talk and holds back himself. I like his stuff.
Inside Man on iPlayer. David Tenant plays vicar. Some really good characters and a different take on a crime thriller
We've recently subscribed to Netflix and watched 1899:https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9319668/I thought it was really well filmed with good music but after finishing the series I can't really tell if I enjoyed it (I don't want to go too far here due to spoiler potential). Has anyone else watched it?I would suggest anyone who's interested switching to the subtitles rather than the dubbed version.Nat wants to watch Dahmer but I'm not sure... https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13207736/
Have you watched 'Dark' also on Netflix? It was made by the same people who have gone on to make 1899. Has a similar production values, great use of score and music to set the tone and atmosphere. It'd be a very strong recommend from me. One of my favourite recent shows. It's fully in German and I'd also advise watching with subtitles on although I'm sure dubs are available.
Despite the awful name, which sounds to me like some Bear Grylls wankfest, SAS Rogue Heroes on iplayer is really good.
Despite the awful name, which sounds to me like some Bear Grylls wankfest, SAS Rogue Heroes on iplayer is really good.It's 6 hour-long episodes, and is a drama about the inception of the SAS during WW2 in North Africa by a colourful group of characters. Very funny in parts, with an excellent cast including the headmasters son / bully from Sex Education in the lead role. It's made by the same person who did Peaky Blinders. I'm not normally one for a soldier drama but thought this was great.
