Will log that for the future.
Was disappointed after Jean Luc moved on

It was the final episode of "No Offence" last night, and I'm really going to miss it. It was an absolutely brilliant slice of British telly. I do hope there's a series 4.

I agree, Paul. It just keeps getting better and better.
Could be a decent replacement for it, starting next Thursday on More4 - Berlin Station.
While I'm at it, another plug for the brilliant Killing Eve.

No Offence watched last night. Excellent.
Under orders to record Berlin Station.
Thought Killing Eve started well, did not do humour and drama. Annoying characters and murder supposedly funny

'Eyewitness' - another much needed dose of Scandi noir courtesy of 'Walter Presents' on C4 catch-up.
I'm finding some of the plot a bit tricky to follow but it's well made and certainly compelling enough, will be seeing it through to the end. Just wish it was in full HD. Streaming is surprisingly low quality.
Incidentally there is lots of scandi on catch-up there that I wasn't aware of so that's my viewing sorted for a while!

As recommended by Speedy Steve
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
Recommended here too but look out for the first half hour of episode one being poor. Almost gave up Great once you are past that and well worth staying with If you like Jewish Noy Yoik humour you will love it.

Daren't look at Walter Presents Far too much to be tempted by. Some will be excellent, some will be not really for me and I tee off the boss by wanting to leave her to it.

Watched Swedish police drama Alex on SVTplay. It wasn't that good. I don't expect any UK broadcaster will pick it up.
Swedish again, Vår tid är nu (eng: Our time is now) looks promising. We'll watch this.
Another Swedish one is Spring Floden eng: Spring tide. Murder by downing, being buried up to her neck in the sand and the Spring tide coming in.. Wonder if it's Marie safe..

... Wonder if it's Marie safe.. Are you worried it'll scare her, or give her ideas?

I have recently finished watching Get Shorty. Series 2 is equally as good as Series 1. It doesn’t embarrass the feature film either.

Daren't look at Walter Presents I really enjoyed 13 Commandments and enjoy Rough Justice, both good Belgian drama.

Another reason or two not to dip into Walter.... They seem to stay on forever so will always be there I like listening to music instead if I can get away with it

"Little Drummer Girl" starts on BBC 1 tonight, at 21:00. It's a six-parter based on the John le Carré and might be worth a go.

Spribgfloden / Spring tide.. Suitably noir opening scene!
Murder by drugging and burying upto the neck in sand on a beach that only once a year (alignment of sun and moon) creates a tide high enough to drown the victim. Of course the drugs clear just in time for the victim to experience the downing fully conscious.
They love a bit of noir planning our Nordics 😊
It's an unsolved murder so is used as a case for investigation in criminal studies.
The mother in-law has followed it into the second series. Marie's not into it though.

Gladbeck Shown on BBC. Still on Iplayer. Recommended. Annoying and frustrating, but that is only because it is based on the true story. Jaw dropping ineptitude by the German police. The worst side of the German media. Gladbeck, Wikipedia
