As I announced last week I have added Netflix to my TV package and I think its rubbish and a waste of money (I am not playing for it) I hope it will pick up. I don’t like box sets and when it comes to drama, I like it weekly call me old fashioned.
A talented, young getaway driver (Ansel Elgort) relies on the beat of his personal soundtrack to be the best in the game. But after being coerced into working for a crime boss (Kevin Spacey), he must face the music when a doomed heist threatens his life, love, and freedom.
A drug dealer is hired to pick up a shipment of marijuana in Mexico and bring it back over the border. To make himself look less suspicious, he recruits a stripper (Jennifer Aniston) and two teenagers to pose as a perfect all-American family on holiday, only to end up getting on the wrong side of a drug cartel.
Spoof spy thriller following the exploits of a team of special agents working for the British government and charged with saving the world. When an undercover agent is shot dead, it catapults the team into an Austrian adventure as they discover plans to attack an international charity conference.
Sandi Toksvig and Noel Fielding host this charity special and the first stars testing their baking skills are Spandau Ballet’s Martin Kemp, comedian Harry Hill, broadcaster Bill Turnbull and actor Roisin Conaty. Regular judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith will be on duty where the stars will be cooking up cupcakes and a 3D biscuit scene.
Crescent Bay is not the ideal place to spend one's golden years, especially since the once-idyllic retirement community has been beset by a series of deadly animal attacks from the ominous forest surrounding it. When grizzled war veteran Ambrose McKinley is forced into moving there by his yuppie son Will, the residents immediately take offense to Ambrose's abrasive personality. But that take-no-prisoners attitude may be just what Ambrose needs to survive as it becomes clear that the attacks are being caused by creatures that are neither animal nor man, and that the tight-knit community of Crescent Bay is hiding something truly sinister in its midst...
Lee Mack and Sally Bretton return and are struggling to keep order in their packed family house. Helping and hindering are Lucy’s disapproving parents. Lee’s feckless dad Frank who is played by the brilliant Bobby Ball and world-weary pal toby all keep our hero seemingly depressed about life in general. In this episode. Geoffrey allows the couple to help clear up the builder’s mess in the new kitchen extension.
The Glasgow-set comedy following pensioners Jack Jarvis and Victor McDade as they cope with everything that modern life throws at them returns. We hear a lot about their views on how it used to be in the old days and how bad it is now in the fictional area of Glasgow, Craiglang.
In the series opener, Boabby has ambitious new ideas for the pub and it seems the regulars do not figure in his plans, prompting them to take matters into their own hands. Meanwhile, Winston is forced to move out of his flat for a while, but no one is keen to take him in, and Isa is on a mission to find out who is throwing her a surprise birthday party.
Ortis Deley and Georgie Barrat travel to Nevada to visit the world's biggest consumer electronics show in Las Vegas. The events boasts upgraded drones, upgraded VR headsets, upgraded televisions and a stream of new robots to help around the house. Meanwhile, Jon Bentley joins Craig Charles in a `versus' challenge to see if cutting-edge tech can put them on a par with professional decorators. Jon and Craig have access to the finest aids that tech has to offer, while the professionals have to rely on experience, skill and traditional tools.
Another subtitled Walter Presents An excellently grabby opening launches Walter’s latest import, this time from Belgium. We’re in Antwerp, and by way of introduction to local police superintendent Liese Meerhout, we see her sweat a fellow officer in order to solve the riddle of a car crash in which her chief constable was involved – all in double-quick time.
After that we’re into a pleasantly concise procedural as Liese and her team probe the murder of an investigative journalist found suffocated, with a rag doll by the corpse. The drama is neatly pieced together, with that grey, flat, affectless cool of some Euro cop shows.
In time, it looks as though the quirks of Liese’s subordinates will come more into focus. Some of her own already have: she drives a great old yellow Mercedes, goes to gay nightclubs, and plays a drum kit to relax. Like most senior Belgian cops, I imagine.
