    I've just spotted that Our Friends in the North is being shown on BBC4. I have it on DVD and have watched it fairly recently, but if you haven't seen it, I really recommend it.

    I liked Our friends in The North, watched it at the time and watched it again on YouTube.

    Yes! I have the final episode to go. It’s fairly good. Series 2 did not grip me as much as 1. Try episode one to see if it’s your sort of thing.

    I am preferring ‘The Suspect’ (ITV) - a modern twist on a ‘whodunnit’ with a bit more psychological drama.

    Yes watched series 1 and trying to watch 2 if hubby can stay awake. Not that it's boring he just does that.

    I found the premise of series one quite outdated - like it belonged to 2002 or 1962. Marvel Universe films used faked face CGI in 2012 and again in Iron Man 3. There have been decades of films arguing about how far CIA deception is morally allowed to go. The original Mission Impossible series explored this exact ground in 1966.

    The first half of Capture was quite gripping when I didn't know the play. Can I be bothered with series 2?

    I've just noticed a programme that's on tonight on BBC2 at 8pm which might be worth watching.
    The Great Northern Garden Build. 
    A look behind the scenes at RHS Garden Bridgewater in Salford which has become one of the most popular attractions in the North West.

    Ooh yes, I really enjoyed the first two programmes last year (they're on iPlayer if you didn't see them, @Fran IOM http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m000w16z ), it will be good to see how it's developed. One day I'll visit it for real.
