I've watched three episodes so far and am really enjoying the gentle humour.

I am loving Ludwig. It’s definitely made me chortle out loud which I don’t think anything has for me for ages!

Re: Old Skool Terrestrial Telly
I saw a review of Mr Loverman the other day, sounds great and is on the list.
I've been watching Carole King Live in Central Park (documentary available on iPlayer) tonight, and it's lovely. Proper balm for the soul.

I’ve seen the first two episodes of The Hardacres (channel 5) and it’s ok. Gentle tv without much thinking but would be Better without the character of Ma.

I loved Ludwig.
I liked hitching my bosom and saying to R 'now how is he going to sort this one out?' :))
We started Brian Cox doing the Solar System last night. As expected, it made me want to go to Iceland.

Ludwig will definitely be getting a second season, apparently, this has greatly pleased me on a wet miserable Wednesday.

I watched all of Showtrial this week on iPlayer, I think it’s done on proper TV now. Anyway, it was almost as good as the first series, and I do love Michael Socha.

Oh, I'd heard mixed reviews but if you guys are a fan of the second series, that's good enough for me. I shall start it tomorrow!

Re: Old Skool Terrestrial Telly
For those who may have missed it like me, I’ve just realised there is a whole series of Malory Towers on Iplayer that I haven’t seen; I’m off work this week so I’m going to binge that right now. :lol:

Season 5 was released in 2 parts and the second half was only released on Monday. Liv and I had been counting down the days!

No, she's always said she'd hate it. She really wants to swim in the pool though. I always did too!
