Reacher seems to be getting worse by the episode, hihi.

Jack Ryan is great!


OT - Fool Me Once - 2024 (brand new!) - IMDB rating 7,1
1 season

A woman just buried her husband after he was murdered right in front of her, when she sees him in her home on her nanny cam, cuddling their daughter.
She gets suspicious and starts to investigate.

So far it's really good!

Currently back to watching Vera
I stopped when season 10 was out as I didn't like the way they'd started doing things.
Then found out that they went back to the original format with season 11 so I'm catching up :)
Season 13 has just come out on Jan 7th.
Unfortunately Aiden left the series and is replaced by the guy that was Vera's right hand before him.

I think I once gave that a go and didn't like it, but I can try again.
I have watched Shetland, loved that!!
The new season is a bit off now that Douglas Henshall has left the series.

As it is finished the last couple of episodes of Outlander.

Watch the old Taggart shows from the 80's and early 90's, with Mark McManus, Crystal? They were the best ones. Outlander, is filmed up in Cumbernauld, at the West park Studios, right next to Cumbernauld Airport. About 8 - 9 miles away from where I stay. Drove past their Studios plenty of times:thumbsup::100::sunglasses:

Would that be Wardpark Film & TV studios then?

I've read that their alleged American ranch is built somewhere in Scotland as well. Makes sense. A lot easier and cheaper to stay close to home as opposed to flying the entire crew to the US.

Aye Wardpark Studios Crystal. That predictive text changed it to Westpark. It's not far from me ( about 10 minutes drive ) and right next to Cumbernauld Airport. Which is handy for actors, etc, flying in by Plane, or Helicopter, from anywhere in the UK, or Europe.:thumbsup::100::sunglasses:

I had no idea the studio for Outlander was there.
I know they shot all the indoor so called Lallybroch scenes in a studio as the real "Lallybroch" estate is in such a dire state that no one is even allowed to go in. Too dangerous. I guess that's the reason they usually show it from the exact same side only in the series. Too much work I guesstimate to fill in another side with CGI or however they do it.

I'll check it out on the morrow, a tad too late now, about to go to bed.

Have been watching "Men in kilts: road trip with Sam and Graham".
Them travelling through Scotland. Absolutely wonderful to watch!

I think I've seen that Crystal. Is that the one with the two gay guys?:thinking::thinking:🀷My favourite part of Scotland, is the Isle of Skye. My son's mum preferred the Isle of Arran, Bute and Cumbrae though. :thumbsup::100::sunglasses:

Gay? Hahahaha.
Sam is the main male character from Outlander series, Graham played his uncle in the same show. Neither are gay.

It is a great series! They show a lot of things and places, all typically Scottish, but they do keep it light-hearted, even when they went to Culloden.
One episode was on food and drink. I had no idea Scottish cuisine is famed for its seafood!
Made me want to go over there, just to eat, haha.
Another was on sports, another on traditions, etc. etc.
Really interesting stuff with a pinch of humour.

I don't watch "Outlander" Crystal, so I wouldn't know. I know there was a gay couple, who did a tour of Scotland, not that long ago. I thought it was them? 🀣🀣:thumbsup::100: It's mostly Scottish, English and European football, on the TV, in my house though:thumbsup::100:⚽

Criminal Record - 2024 - 7,5 IMDB rating
British crime series. So far 4 episodes available.

So far I like it, but only in episode 3, too early to give a decent rating.

Short story: an old murder seems to tie in to a new one. The cop investigating it discover this and wants to dive into it, but the cops that dealt with the old murder try to stop her from doing so, clearly being bent coppers.
