I love bbc iplayer does anybody have any recommendations for series's or documentaries to watch, the good ones aren’t well advertised! Just finished watching our girl (10/10) and informant (7/10)
 
Life on Mars and it’s spinoff, Ashes to Ashes.
This Country is very funny.
Line of Duty.
Miranda (guilty pleasure! 😅)
I think there’s some Louis Theroux docs on there too, they’re usually a good watch.
 
The Missing
Mortimer and Whitehouse Gone Fishing
Baptiste
Luther
Detectorists
Hidden
What We Do In The Shadows

These are just a few things I’ve watched recently and enjoyed

I am finding ‘I may destroy you‘ very triggering. It’s tough but compulsive viewing

I was going to make a thread about this . I think it deserves one really doesn’t it? Triggering is absolutely the word , when so often it is an exaggeration. Not this show. So much about it that’s great though.. I’m just starting ep5.

Funny story . I gave this a watch after hearing it promoted on the radio - I thought the premise was intriguing and the actors / holly Walsh, the writer, came across well.
Not that that’s really relevant.
But remember there’s a small character who is this awful geography teacher ? I actually forget his party in the story. But I was amused to hear his name - Mr Shippen - having had a hideous geography teacher myself with that name. Then I remembered holly Walsh actually went to my school. And it’s not that common a name especially for the exact same subject. So this was for sure some kind of twisted tribute to a notorious teacher. The horror of being taught by him was passed down generations ...(I’m about ten years younger at a guess ). He was a relic of the old school, the kind of guy that had never made a lesson plan in his life and would laugh at the concept at curriculum. Which is all very well if he was any good , but he was atrocious . He rambled, and shouted and smelled incredibly badly. He also had a favourite type of rock (igneous I believe). So I never got into geography but all these years later (I’m 30) it gave me a good laugh.
