Sorry they're remaking Naked Gun, not Airplane.
Hopefully they leave Airplane well alone but I wouldn't be surprised if the new film is a success

I wasn’t sure where to post this but I’ve been looking out for it for ages and it’s coming to Cardiff. Can’t wait.

Two cases in and the new series of 24hrs in Police Custody continues to be extremely difficult viewing, but incredibly sensitively and well done.
Without doubt the best in this genre of fly on the wall crime series.

Murder 24/7 on BBC Iplayer is very similar. Definitely recommend

Just caught up with the final series of Squid Game.
Seen the ending has been getting some stick online, but I thought it was actually okay.
Was always going to be hard to live up to the first series when the mysterious "games" were what was most exciting about it.
Not looking forward the hints towards a potential American spin off though...

The plot was a bit stupid imo. The 2nd series was good but felt the 3rd series struggled to tie up the story because the plot fragmented from a single protagonist.
We knew if he didn’t do ‘x’, then ‘y’ was going to happen. There was an interesting twist but even then that didn’t make too much sense imo. Sat watching I felt a bit disappointed.
I’ve kept it deliberately vague to avoid spoilers.

Yeah I do know what you mean. The dialogue didn't feel as good this series - Gi-hoon must only have said about 5 words per episode.
The boat storyline really dragged for about two series as well until the final episode.
Overall I did enjoy it, but it peaked in the first series where it was purely about the games imo.
Spoilers - Couldn't get past that weird CGI baby either...

Surviving Black Hawk Down.
A three part mini series about the Yanks failed mission to take out the rival faction leader General Aidid in Somalia which led to two of their Black Hawk’s being shot down on the same night.
Excellently put together with real life accounts from not only the soldiers who were there but also their families and really interesting the accounts from both the opposition fighters and the innocent civilians caught in the middle of it as well as the only journalist in Mogadishu with a camera which shows real life footage from the two day battle.
If recent military history is your thing then I’d definitely recommend!

Red Riding Trilogy.
Just about to drop on Netflix.
Based on the books of the same name, written by David Peace who did the Damned United.
Originally released in the mid 90`s, so a lot will have missed it first time around.
Follows a young reporter in West Yorkshire, as he covers the Yorkshire Ripper murders and in doing so, he stumbles into a web of corrupt land development deals, involving local councillors, the police, who are also involved in child abduction / abuse and murder.
One of the all time great British crime dramas and I go as far as to say, in terms of quality it`s as good as series one of True Detective.
It`s unrelentingly bleak, dark as anything and the subject matter at times is really not for the faint hearted, but the writing and acting is sublime, with an ensemble British cast and Sean Bean giving the performance of his lifetime, as a bent councillor with a penchant for young girls.
