Reveal hidden contents Slow first series, great 2nd and 3rd. 4th went weird with it all being about black female leader saving the day in the western states, but it built up nicely. Penultimate episode excellent! Final episode, WTF. Just WTF. It makes the Game of Thrones finale look like a modern masterpiece. Beyond abysmal with folk just walking out of a tunnel making no sense and all the redemption story options written off, as well as leaving overwhelmingly huge storylines open. I feel robbed. That was an atrocious ending. Very few programmes seem able to end well. The best ending, of a long running series, that I've seen is Justified. Definitely, in my opinion, worth watching. 2 2014 Challenged Cup Winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleep1673 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 There is a good comedy on ITV at 8pm tonight, Kate & Koji. I saw ep1 last week and thought it very clever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen anything they have done together before that I recall I've seen and heard other things of theirs, mostly from Sue. I have recently been revisiting a couple of radio comedy shows she hosted - The 99p Challenge and Dilemma. Both are enjoyable. I also enjoyed her teaming up with Giles Coren in The Supersizers, which was an odd mixture of personalities that actually worked. Their big TV break was Light Lunch, a daytime TV show that I didn't see, but got them a following. Their biggest mistake was taking on the poisoned chalice that was the reboot of The Generation Game.
