Half watched 30 minutes of "Hungerford" ,it's bad

Finished Season 5 of Line of Duty. Excellent again. Stephen Graham played his part well.

Really enjoyed that program. Gleeson plays the part brilliantly.

QUINCY- a top class music doc. I'm not a big bepop/hiphop fan but this was a great film. Happy to see brief cameos Willy Nelson and our brother Bono. Can't believe it took so long for an African-American Smithsonian museum to open. O Bararck is the the 21st Century USA president extraordinaire. Quincy does it all so well except marriage... fair play to him he gave up the drink at 80+ after a couple of near death expeirences. Qunicy is the cat...I'm looking forward to seeing the Crockofgold this weekend maybe Shane is the horse...

Can't see it on Netflix. Is it in the Irish one?

Sky Atlantic.

I am well into season 3 of Teachers at the moment, it stars a young Andrew Lincoln from the Walking Dead. One of my kids couldn't believe it when they heard his real voice
Its about a group of young teachers in a secondary school, remember it when it first aired on normal tv so am enjoying watching it again.

Saw the original posiden adventure. Great film

Is there any way to change the settings so that you don't have to press yes to watch another episode after watching 3 episodes of a series. Always the same as can't find the remote and searching high and low. (I know obvious thing is to put remote on coffee table but where would the fun in that be).
