Hello Vinny,

One of the favourites we discovered this year is "Ghosts", iPlayer.

Others I liked were Doom Patrol, The Umbrella Academy, Ratched, His Dark Materials, Tales From The Loop (had to stick with this one!!)

Did you watch "Torchwood" in the end?

I'm usually doing something at the same time - but I did enjoy The Queens Gambit.
My husband and boys have always played chess -it's made them get the board out again rather than  playing on a computer. It's been a breath of fresh air.
Chess.com is free if you don't want all the bells and whistlers. I have been playing games against players from all over the world. I am on there every day for the last couple of years now. I keep four games running at all times and its the first site I go to each day. I have mine set to allow players up to 24 hours to make a move but they usually make half a dozen moves in this time so I can keep checking back throughout the day.
I joined last week, this is where we've been playing the family tournamentSmile

Just started watching The Witcher on Netflix. Only watched a couple of episodes so not sure if i like it or not yet.

 Watched all of Raised by Wolves (never spotted a wolf) and I thought it was a load of twaddle with a ridiculous ending. Rolleyes

Dont like stupid endings, which seems to be in favour just nowRolleyes

Just on the 3rd series very funnySmile

I'm surprised by the language on the BBC! The characters are all great but the Mrs from Rab C. Nesbitt wins hands downSmile
