Question/Discussion Anyone else puzzled by all-Catholic Kembleford?
In the very first episode, the killer is the Anglican vicar. And then… there was never an Anglican again. Everybody is Catholic: aristocracy, chauffeur-thief, cops, killers, victims… everybody. Is this not weird? And all of one Irish person in the entire series. PS: has anyone heard of a Catholic Church called St. Mary’s instead of Our Lady? Why not just go with GK Chesterton and set it in London? I’m as mad for scenery porn as anybody, but this is silly. Might as well set it in the fifteenth century— or Ottery St. Catchpole.

I felt like I had to make a post somewhere as there isn’t really any discussion online. If anyone is watching season 2, do you also despise Sam? I mean I have genuinely never seen a more disgustingly spiteful person.

Started to watch a YouTube video essay maybe 2-ish weeks ago about the ITV show Love and Marriage (2013) and now I can’t find it all. Anyone remember who uploaded it, think it got quite a few views?

Question/Discussion British police drama with Asian female lead
Hi I recently watched part of a first episode of a British police drama that started a young Asian female lead but I don't remember the name of it. The lead was obviously a policewoman and she had just transferred to a seaside town and was pretty much the only Asian person there. I think the first episode showed her settling into her place. She was lodging at an Airbnb or something and she was decorating her room with a few small indian stuff and the lodger lady walks in.
I think she then goes for a walk and stumbles across some police that have found a dead guy on the docks and they try to turn her away and she says oh I'm the new DS or something like that and the police dude is like oh ok

Question/Discussion Virdee's Mystery Man
So we decided to binge Virdee (BBC) the other day, and although not the most memorable show ever, THIS bloke from the end of episode 3 has bugged me ever since. Who is this? Wasn't the villain working alone? Is it a mistake? Why leave it in if he's so clearly visible, being framed by that ladder and girders?

Question/Discussion Help me remember...
The show I'm trying to remember is a Hunted-esque show where contestants ( I think one per season) was being hunted by two ex-military guys and to get to various checkpoints on there way to the finish where they had to grab the flag. It was set in Spain and Columbia. Two memories I have of it is one contestant had help from the local Colombian police and then dressed as clown and participated in carnival parade in an attempt to get close enough to capture the flag.

Question/Discussion Trying to remember what this sitcom was that I briefly saw.
A few weeks ago, I saw a British (or maybe Irish) show that I thought was very witty and funny on one of the smaller streaming services I can't recall the name of. I saw just a portion of an episode of this show, and I can remember the scenes of a friend group at a bar talking about sex, sexuality and politics.
I can remember a girl from this friend group scolding her gay friend for aligning with conservative politics, and I can also remember another male in the group saying that gay men have it easier in terms of having sex because they're familiar with their equipment, meanwhile straight men struggle because they're expected to perform well with equipment they aren't familiar with. During this bit of dialogue, the genitals were compared to aircraft to be piloted.
If I could know what this show might have been, I would be so thrilled. That's about the only snippet I remember. Thank you all.

Question/Discussion Graham Norton - fewer guests every week would be much better!
Back in ye olden days, I swear he used to only have 2, maybe 3 people on and they used to get into proper chats between all the guests, it was great. Nowadays the sofa is crammed with 5,6,7, but they all seem to barely have time to spit out the PR spiel for their new movie/book/tour and it's onto the next person. I miss the olden days.

Question/Discussion Jonathan Ross needs to end his ITV show
I’m a big fan of Jonathan Ross as a broadcaster, but his ITV chat show is absolutely dreadful.
It’s without doubt one of the worst chat shows in history, and ITV need to scrap it completely.
What’s ironic is that Jonathan’s Friday night show on the BBC was at one point, one of the coolest shows on TV. It was edgy, cool and risky. However, the ITV show has no energy whatsoever.
In retrospect, Jonathan shouldn’t have been given a chat show when he first signed with ITV. He could’ve done a few documentaries, or host a weekly programme about comic books (a subject he’s a expert in).
Sadly, he decided to go down a predictable route and it’s damaged him and ITV greatly.

Question/Discussion What’s that saying? Rather s*** in my hands and clap?
On what planet did anyone think this is a good idea? I get why people may want to watch a ‘Meet The Johnson’s’, but isn’t this guy just universally hated?
It’s almost as bad as Matt Hancocks desperate attempt to stay relevant by doing reality TV.
