All the shows I'm enjoying at the moment, can't beat a good series! I love new recommendations so like to share too. I’m going back and catching up on the good stuff I’ve missed.
10/10 modern day spy series. The characters are not likeable but are fantastic, the story lines are incredible but likely. I binged this series so hard.
Slow Horses (TV Series 2022
Love Will Trent! I'm so pleased to see season two has started. It's a great show with a good thread running through it too.
