Thanks, Lola. I really liked this and didn’t realize it was back.

I couldn't find a new series of this at first until I realised it was a celebrity one, just in case anyone else is as thick as me.

Is anyone watching It's a Sin on Channel 4? I really love it. It reminds me a bit of This Life. Some of the acting is pretty hammy but if you can get past that then it's great. The music and fashion/decor, etc. are so good.

I've just finished the first series of this and quite enjoyed it. I have downloaded the Dark Ages one to watch next.

We talked about it a bit up thread. I watched it all in a couple of days and shed a few tears.

Oh, that completely passed me by. I have read the thread, honest!

Marcella is back. I caught up this afternoon. It was a bit confusing but I’m sure it will make more sense along the line.

I loves the early Marcellas but the later ones got s bit far-fetched. This seems to have coincided with Anna Friel's face going a bit LA :polite:

I just mentioned it to my flat-mate and she made a face and said "mmm, season three though" which is a good point.

I am currently loving :
- Winterwatch (there’s some close serious close up cute otter action. And Chris Packham)
- Back In Time at the Cornershop- which is a repeat but it’s new for me.
- Junior Bake Off. Harry Hill normally annoys me intensely but his silliness works really well with the kids

I gave up Marcella part way through the series set in Northern Ireland. The first one was great.

I’ve recently really enjoyed the new All Creatures Great and Small. It was lovely TV and quite old fashioned (in a good way) and sweet.

I loved it too Roma. Nice comfort viewing. Minus the arm up rear passage parts.

I thought we were still talking about It’s a Sin and I spat my tea out.

I've watched all of It's a sin. Loved it despite the saddness.

I am watching Celeb Best Home Cook and it's PERFECT and so cosy. It makes me feel like my mum is going to bring me some minestrone Cup a Soup any minute. :love2: :))
