As for Strike, which I really enjoyed, my son told me than a new 4th series has just started - pity I can’t watch it with my defunct VPN!!

Thanks for the "Strike" heads up. Downloading it now. :cheers:

After life-changing heart surgeries, good friends Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse embark on a relaxing yet epic journey around Britain, eating great food and attempting to catch some of the nation's iconic fish.

I have zero interest in fishing but the interaction between the pair is at times hilarious. 3 Seasons well worth a looksee.
:cheers: :thumb:

Usual suspects for downloading.
I've just watched s1 e4 - I can so identify with these two! :laugh: :laugh:

Loved the Mortimer & Whitehouse fishing programs so will definitely lookout for the new season.

For those that enjoyed the first two seasons, Ozark season three is currently running on Netflix.

I ended up downloading the original 3 series (7 episodes in total) plus the two new ones. As I’ve developed the knack of forgetting most of the original series, we are starting watching from scratch and enjoying it. While I was downloading, I also found the Night Manager, another good series originally shown on BBC.

In that case you should also watch The Capture - another BBC drama in which she stars and I found very enjoyable

Okay, challenge accepted! Image

Try "Hidden", a BBC Wales police drama. Some of it's in Welsh with subtitles. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden_(2018_TV_series)

BBC iPlayer
So anyways I was telling my Thai taxi lady about this tonight and that I'm really enjoying even tho its 'dark'. Anyway she just kept asking me more and more Q's about it. Turns out she's dead keen to watch it.

I'm utterly hopeless with pirate downloading /torrents or whatever so I'd be very grateful for links for her to watch this in both Thai and English ideally.

She wants to try watching in English to further her language studies but Thai if it gets too much


Thanks in advance to the link gurus

^^Half (well, some) of Hidden is in Welsh, so this would be very confusing. There are many more appropriate programmes from a language point of view.

Loved Ozark! Am a fan of Jason Bateman. Was quite a different role for him than the usual.

Ok understand so maybe Thai subbies will take care of that

Another one for her would be The Fall

Thanks
