Prisoner back on 15 May. Not long finished the last series and only thanks to Netflix.

I now seem to be a little bit besotted with Downtown Abbey. Have just finished the current Outlander series. Love love love the books. I have one signed by Diana Gabaldon. Best love scenes ever . And some parts even more evil than GoT! I know. Tough call.

Surely FU to you, JT?

Just watched last episode of Line of Duty on BBC1 when we arrived in Milan. Excellent fourth series. Expect it on ABC later this year.

And as always on last Sunday in April, we arrived at our hotel room just in time to see the F1 winners on the podium.

Or even Frankston?

Just finished the series "Medici: Masters of Florence."

Not bad. Historically not very accurate and the reality was much more intriguing, but entertaining.

Loved the locations of Pienza and Montepulciano which are fabulous. No real 13-14C locations left in Florence itself these days but having spent quite a long time in them, the towns of Siena, Pienza, Montepulciano and Viterbo are excellent.

Did you enjoy it? I couldn't get into it at all, maybe wasn't in the right mind frame for it at the time.
Made a bit of a coughoo with The Young Pope as I missed the first episode and decided to catch up on SBS on Demand. Somehow managed to watch the last episode instead Oh well, at least I know how it ends.

Have been enjoying The Undertaker on Netflix - certainly not a heavy series you need to concentrate on, but a little bit different and quite entertaining.

Given my love of the areas where it was filmed, I enjoyed it. The acting and writing however left a lot to be desired.

Frank Underwood - House of Cards.

Frank Underwood - House of Cards.

I sort of dropped off HoC in Series 2. Loved the first series but just couldn't get into the second. Perhaps I should give it another try.

Started watching The Last Kingdom. Like Vikings and in the same period but seemingly from the English (Saxon) perspective. Only seen the first episode. Seems good. Anyone watched it?

 

[PLANT]

Saw a digital copy of THE NEW YORKER..... had an ad for SENSE8........ Great series to say "been there"!

 

[flipstardirect]

Been onto Better Call Saul S03, different to breaking bad clearly, but loving the characters and performances.

Yes first series was excellent.

Second Series not as good, but still very watchable.

And as you will see if you keep watching it is from both the Saxon and Dane perspectives, and if anything more from the Dane perspective.

I haven't heard anything about another season of Utopia but caught this line on The Age.

• 1:32pm

A case of life imitating art - or the other way around?
There has been a bit of rubber necking in the press gallery today as the cast of the ABC comedy series Utopia films in the corridors.

Seems a season 3 is coming but I can't find info or press releases.

Wait found a tweet from last year.

There is just too much material for utopia not to have a 3rd season!

 

[Cynicor]

Oh that would be amazing!!

I've recently discovered The Leftovers. Its fascinating, confusing, disturbing and BIZARRE but I LOVE it! Not everyone's cup of tea but brilliantly creative with an incongruous score that just "works". Already onto the 3rd series which is set in Australia mostly. Justin Theroux is pretty easy on the eye as well
