Love Midsummer Murders( awful I know). My current fave is Inspector Montalbano - when it's on. And I love the old Corries on ITV 3. Worst? Reality shows like towie, etc😱🐰

Favourite: The X-Files. This show changed my life, helped me through a terrible time, took me to America three times, taught me an amazing amount and remains the only thing I have ever been obsessed by. I was lucky enough to meet Chris Carter, (who created the show,) and to be able to thank him. πŸ™‚πŸŒΈ

Oh yes - Cracker ...I loved that and Tales of the Unexpected and the murder mystery with Caroline Quentin in it . Nowadays - loved The Sopranos , Dexter which may be coming back for final finale . The Affair was good and Big Little Lies as my son lives nearby where it was shot and recently Succession which I took ages to get my head around - then hooked . Mainstream - The Real Housewives of Cheshire as it is local to me but so surreal , The Apprentice , Dancing on Ice and skip watching Strictly as only like the dancing . Love Island watched the one with Molly Mae in but will only be bitten once as young people at work watched . Come dine with me , A Place in the Sun ....gosh do I actually get up out of my chair ?

Ha ha I was wondering how you had time to do anything else. I used to be an avid Strictly fan actually got my husband hooked onit but there is now too much repeating of things and silly interviews and not enough dancing. Such a shame that they have spoilt it.x0

Exactly so that's why I record and wind on . trying not to see on social media who has been kicked off .

I used to go to a book club and someone's relative had insider knowledge and she used to tell us who had been voted off which totally spoilt the Sunday programme. I used o try and not hear it but it was difficult as we only met in a small room.x

am also a fan of I Love Lucy - all Lucille Ball stuff. And the old corries, though the story about Kevin and Natalie isnt very riveting or done well.

I like documentaries and Drama. films and factual stuff,

I detest these reality shows which put folk in embarrassing positions in the name of 'entertainment', talent shows with unhelpful judges, and soaps.

Cheers, Midori
