The Traitors UK (2022– )
5/10
Stage Managed
28 December 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I loved the concept, putting strangers together as per normal reality shows and then getting them to do tasks to build up the money pot.

3 were chosen to bne traitors who elimate the others (Faithfuls) . The traitors set about there task well being led by poker face Samantha they chose faithfuls to murder at night and cholse well the other gret bit was the round table were the contestants had the chance to get rid of the traitor (whos identity was hidden).

It worked well then as always they tinker and allowed 2 contestents who had been murdered (the shows way of saying thrown off the show) back and they immediately targetted a traitor (inside information?). The traitors lost one but were still on top and that is when Wilf played his Ace and got rid of the other traitor Angela, boom quality TV. He had now won it for me but the producers gave him another traitor but never told the rest of the contestents so they continued thing there was only one traitor. Wilf seen him off and the money was his but hold on another twist and to have a happy ending not Wilf winning all the money they threw another curve ball in and stole the money of Wilf and shared it with the others basically the show was rigged.

I felt they had actors / players in being faithful and influencing the group which culminated in Keiron the second to one traitor being allowed to out Wilf as he departed to allow the money to be split if I was Wilf I would contest the final verdict as he was robbed PS the games got sillier as the show progressed.

Poor story worse action
16 July 2022
The story is basic but so many holes send in a team to do a job all get killed then ask next team how many they have and they say enough but they again got killed. The film was a special kind of stupid planned operation just burn the house down it was good enough for Winston Churchill.

Bosch Legacy Tired 😴
3 June 2022
The second series seemed rushed the story lines awful what was the kidnap of Maddie was s frustrating how unimaginative,they are pushing Maddy who is a poor to terrible as an actress and have pushed the excellent Jamie Hector out. Bosch is looking tired as is the series.

Twisting and Turning

This was a series which kept me guessing throughout with an OMG ending the 2 main stars Simona Brown and Eve Hewson were outstanding with Robert Aramayo also a stand out.

London Kills (2019– )

Steady Show
13 February 2021
This series has been done on a shoe string budget I Chuckle when they all cram in the Land Rover. The team seem at sorts with each other but good acting on the whole but the script limits them seems a little bit limited and the boss David brings nothing to the table.

The Operative (2019)
6/10
OK the ending left a lot to be desired.
11 February 2021
Diane Kruger, Martin Freeman and Cas Anvar where excellent and made up for the lack of pace in the film. I enjoyed the film it was OK but the ending left a lot to be desired.

Sereies 1-7 10⭐stars then it fades
5 February 2021
Loved this series Harvey and Mike bouncing off each other when Mike leaves in Series 7 Samantha comes in and does well but all the chemistry goes and Harvey fades as does the show. It then becomes comical as Luis and his love affair takes over and every week backs against the wall drama all the fun sucked out I,nm sorry to say.

Series 1 ok Series 2 better 3rd series 😱
23 November 2020
The first series was well acted with curious casting the second improved with a silly meaningless killing then the 3rd series is all over the place with no rhythm or reason hence the lowly 3 stars

Hanna (2019–2021)
9/10
Phew just binged the 2 series
19 November 2020
This TV version of Hanna strike a balance between coming-of-age drama and action thriller, fantastic but not too far fetched with Rhianne Barreto as Sophie (season 1) adding humour. Season 2 follows more in the lines of espionage yet again Esmé Creed - Miles as Hanna is mesmerising making you will wonder what It will happen after each episode, cannot wait for series 3

I enjoy Guy Ritchie films and this was good but not to the level of some of his other films but Guy does seem to be able to pick a good cast
