Even more people may know about the NC 500 now - it was highlighted in a March showing of the BBC's Amazing Hotels which featured the Torridon Hotel (?name) and some great scenary - we've just caught up and apologies if this has already been mentioned.

Time on BBC 1 at 9pm Sunday and now on the iPlayer

Jimmy McGovern written drama about a man and his first time in prison

It's pretty depressing mind

Got to the end of it, all 3 episodes are on the iplayer , it's one of the best dramas I've watched on the BBC in a long time

We’re approaching the end of Season One of Patriot on Amazon Prime.

Dark humour, interesting soundtrack, brilliant acting and such a clever script.

Mostly set in Luxembourg - will probably stop there rather than drive straight through, if there is a next time…

I'm in Luxembourg, well officially anyway, might watch that. Some wicked steep hills, and all public transport is free

Clarkson's farm.

Pretty interesting so far

Up to episode 4 now and it's much more entertaining than I was expecting

Kaleb is the star , he just can't believe how inept Jeremy is

The overwhelming message is you can't cut corners in farming , it also highlights just how much work they do , I don't believe for a minute he's running it alone though

“The Undoing”
Nicole Kidman/ Hugh Grant/Donald Sutherland
A murder mystery psychological thriller that’s well worth a watch.
Very Good Sunday binge tv

Just finished the lot in a day! Compelling edge of the seat stuff to the very end.
Brilliant.

I found Patriot both very good AND rather infuriating (due to the slowness and weird timeline). It does have some absolutely unique camerawork, which is interesting.
