What are you looking at?

Hi guys!

I've seen mention of X-Factor, Strictly, that baking show, Poldark (@Cleoriff) and of course my current favourite, Star Trek (the original).

I want to know what other series you watch or have watched in the past that you consider favourites?

My list is so long that if I post all of it you will think I have no social life. But these are some of the best ones I've ever watched (in no particular order):

• The X-Files
• Vampire Diaries
• True Blood
• Star Trek (original from the 60s)
• Stargate SG1
• Marvel's Agents of SHIELD
• Stargate Atlantis
• Agatha Christie's Poirot
• Northern Exposure
• The Bold and the Beautiful
• Bones
• Madam Secretary
• Elementary

Which ones of these have you seen?

Poldark series 2 finished on Sunday ... so ... I noticed the drama 'Moonstone' whilst searching for BBC SCD ... has anyone seen the 1st episode ?

I read the book at school ... have seen the film ... & listened to it as a BBC Radio Four series ... it's a mystery ...  & I'm darned if I can remember the plot

According to this Jane it was on all last week...and as it was in the afternoon...I didn't watch it...

Yes pleased ended well....though just who is the father of Elizabeths baby....?

Naughty boy Aidan....

I've recorded the Moonstone but have yet to watch it. I also attempted to read it when in school but only got half way. Finally read it through about a year after coming to England. And like you @Anonymous I know it's a mystery but can't remember more than that. But then it's over 45 years since I read the book so not surprising!😄

When I finally watch it, which should be tomorrow, will let you know what it's about.

I'm currently watching Dark Angel on ITV. The true story of the Victorian poisoner Mary Ann Cotton. By god it was easy to get hold of arsenic in those days . How she got away with it for so long is unbelievable (by todays standards)

@Cleoriff & @Glory1

Just watched the 1st episode of Moonstone on the iPlayer ... enjoyed it & eager to watch more ... Planet II will have to wait until tomorrow evening & I shall enjoy that, except for the racer snakes 

Yes Cleo, Aidan has been a naughty boy ... 

More info

looking forward to seeing the look upon George Warleggan's face when the baby boy has black hair

I've watched the first part of Dark Angel with part 2 recorded. @Cleoriff I was waiting for her to sign for the arsenic like you to do today. Was amazed when it was just handed to her. Wonder if her murders were behind the introduction of a register.

Can't wait to watch part 2. Am a big Joanne Froggat fan ever since her Coronation Street days.

And thanks @Anonymous looking forward to immersing myself in The Moonstone.

However, all tomorrow I'm about to do catch-up on 2 shows - one that didn't record and one I forgot to watch and then some Amazon Prine streaming. Oh and btw Planet Earth II stunning - and I don't mind snakes.

One of the reality shows I do like is about to start. 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here'

I like it mainly due to Ant and Dec.....and the joy I get from watching so called 'celebrities' undergoing  excruciating and sickening challenges.  I see Ola Jordan (dancer from Strictly) is one of the contestants. Cue shower and bikini scenes.....No doubt will add the element of interest for the men...

I avoid all reality shows like the plague but I was in hysterics watching the Japanese version of the show on my recent visit there 

[Cleoriff]

I don't like many reality shows (and never watch BB) but this one is amusing

I see Carol Vordeman is in this years line up as is Larry Lamb (the actor) oh and Wayne Bridge the footballer...

I just dislike B class celebrities trying for a little more fame and money. Kinda sad to be honest...
