The Blacklist is great. I really liked James Spader when he was in Boston Legal and he's even better in this. It get's very interesting as the relationship between Red & Liz is slowly revealed and there are many twists and turns along the way. Well worth watching.

Another good one to look out for is Lie To Me starring Tim Roth. He's excellent in it.
Cheers, will give Lie To Me a go.  $good$

There is a programme on ITV tonight at 9.00pm  called  "Car crash Britain  caught on Camera"  it should be quite interesting and shows the dangers that may arise when driving.
It's one of the reasons why I had a video camera fitted in my car.

I've recorded the programme and will watch it tomorrow but the clips shown on the TV are unbelievable just like you've said.   

This is a brief clip of Russian car crashes in 2013

I suspect Russia has a serious problem with alcohol. I've watched a few of those compilations, and what's really worrying is the number of drivers who seem to have ready access to guns, baseball bats and other implements of mass damage in an incident.

The second series of Happy Valley has been pretty good.

It's great, but it's full of Yorkshire people!

(also, like Emmerdale, it's full of actors from Bolton, pretending to be from Yorkshire)

I'm with you on that one Dave, well written and well acted with a credible storyline

It is brilliant! Hugh Laurie plays a great baddie! Seems the next Bond has been found too!

It's gripping stuff, but I have some real problems with the scripting, which at times has bizarre and unnecessary events chucked in which have no relevance to the plot.
